Logan Paul has dropped his latest music video -- and it’s an ode to his signature blonde locks with cameos from noted actress Bella Thorne, fellow YouTube star Lauren Elizabeth, and the influencer-model Hailee Lautenbach.
In the sexually-charged video for Outta My Hair, Thorne -- who has appeared in several AwesomenessTV productions including Shovel Buddies and You Get Me -- is so smitten by Paul’s mop top that she’s driven to madness. The song features lyrics like “Running your fingers through all of this blonde ambition” and "Trying to blow-dry and brush it you just want to touch it, I can’t get you outta my hair.” The music video has clocked a staggering 6 million YouTube views in less than a day -- and is also available to stream on Spotify or purchase on iTunes.

In general, the movies produced by Awesomeness Films have tended to feature online video stars in their lead roles. The studio’s latest addition to its slate, however, does not include any digital influencers on its top line -- at least not yet. The film is titled You Get Me, and it will star Bella Thorne and Halston Sage.
By the time You Get Me arrives, Thorne and Sage will be making their second appearances in Awesomeness Films productions. Thorne plays one of the leads in the coming-of-age story Shovel Buddies, while Sage appears in the fantasy film Before I Fall. In You Get Me, the two actresses will play a pair of women competing of the same man. Their “competition” will heat up when they find themselves at the same school. The film’s setup will resonate well with Awesomeness Films’ target audience, which consists primarily of tweens and teens.

Back in March, Verizon inked a deal with AwesomenessTV which would bring over 200 hours of original programming to a new over-the-top channel for Verizon’s consumer base.

Each year, a select group of Hollywood executives choose films for the "Black List," a roster of the best unproduced screenplays from the previous year. Acclaimed films that once appeared on this list include The Wolf of Wall Street, Slumdog Millionaire, and The Hangover.
Now, AwesomenessTV and Film 360 will bring one of 2013's Black List entries to fruition. The teen-focused entertainment company and the production studio have teamed up to produce Shovel Buddies, which was #8 on the 2013 Black List.
Shovel Buddies, written by Jason Hellerman, follows four teenagers as they attempt to complete the bucket list of a friend who has died of leukemia. "Along the way," reads a press release, "they learn more about themselves, their own relationships and the true meaning of friendship."
Film 360 initially approached Big Frame, the talent management company owned by Big Frame, with a plan to create a version of Shovel Buddies based around teenage digital stars.
