Info Post

Thanks to Drake and meme culture, we live in a world where this paragraph can be written:



Make a video of yourself telling Katie [Couric] your YOLO – the one thing you’ve always dreamed of doing. Why? Because You Only Live Once! Send us your video and it may appear on “Katie” or here on KatieCouric.com. Katie may even make your YOLO come true!



This is in fact a regular feature on Katie Couric’s new talk show Katie, right alongside “Tired of Texting Monopolizing Family Time?” and “Are You Stuck in a Relationship Rut?”. It has actual traction. It has actual celebrity co-signs. And you know what that means? We also live in a world where the phrase “Regis Philbin’s YOLO” is a thing. (We watched the video, but alas, Regis never says “YOLO.” DJs the world over are terribly disappointed.)


You’ll notice, though, that our site is Popdust. It is not Regisdust. Start your own Regisdust if that’s the site you’d like. (The URL isn’t taken, as of the time of writing! Ahem.) There are lots of YOLO videos here, but the ones we’re interested in are the ones involving Couric’s musician buddies. So let’s round them up!


LMFAO’S YOLOS: “LMFAO’s YOLOS” is another great phrase. It’d totally baffle time travelers. Anyway, Redfoo’s YOLO (sigh) (we’re going to have to say that a lot, aren’t we?) is to win a professional tennis tournament. SkyBlu wants to be a professional skateboarder. In other words, both their YOLOs are essentially to become Lil Wayne. Sounds plausible.



KYLIE MINOGUE’S YOLOS: To learn to cook. This is… rather unambitious. (And if your cooking’s so gutsy it qualifies for YOLO status, possibly a fire hazard.)



KARMIN’S YOLOS: Karmin’s YOLO is… to star in their own movie. Nothing about this should surprise you. (Well, OK: it’s a little surprising they didn’t attach a link to a manic pixie dream rap cover of “The Motto.” Maybe by 2013?)



DRAGONETTE’S YOLOS: They want to cycle across Europe. As a band. On tour. Not a bad idea! They could attach speakers to their bikes playing “Let It Go” and become Pied Pipers of dance-pop. We’d follow. We might even forget that this came of the word YOLO!
