Israel’s News Blog Magazine: Daily Stories Video and PhotosOne of the most searched for items or personalities lately is “LonelyGirl15″ who has created a phenomenon amongst web viewers young and old.
For those who aren’t familiar, videos by LonelyGirl15 started appearing on YouTube over the summer and she’s is supposedly a teenager who is home schooled by religious parents who don’t know she’s creating videos online. As she is a “novice” movie maker, her friend Daniel helps her with the videos and they often talk back and forth across their videos.
As the videos became more and more popular, they were covered by media from across the globe, both on and offline; they spread like a true virus.
I personally think that this was a brilliant viral marketing experiment and a hoax which is showing the true voyeuristic and inquisitive nature of today’s society, commercially and otherwise.
Visit her profile site at “LonelyGirl15″ and view her past videos, you be the judge, is this a hoax ???
A sample clip of her’s is below,
