SIBEL’S STORY

Sibel is 16 and lives in Toronto, Ontario. She will never forget the day she logged into her Twitter account and found out that all of the boys from One Direction were following her. It was Friday, 23 March 2012 and Sibel had just got in from school. She was so excited that she started crying. All Directioners on Twitter dream of the 1D boys following them, so Sibel was over the moon to have all of them follow her on the same day. She loves all of the boys equally; however, if she were to choose her favourite, she would have to go with Niall.

A few hours later, Sibel checked her Twitter mentions and was surprised to read a tweet from someone saying, ‘Hello, I am the executive producer at MuchMusic, please follow me so that I can DM you.’ MuchMusic is a hugely popular music channel in Canada, but Sibel couldn’t understand why someone who worked there would want to get in touch with her.

She followed him anyway, and he quickly replied in a direct message saying, ‘MuchMusic is shooting a pilot TV show this Monday 1.15pm on superfans. You have to be at least 14 years old to participate. Interested?’

Sibel quickly replied, ‘Yes’. Of course she would be there!

He replied, ‘OK. You and your sister need to be at MuchMusic at 1.15pm this Monday. On the John Street entrance. Have you been to Much before? Also, we need to keep all TV pilots confidential until they get fully completed.’

Sibel knew that the boys were supposed to be in Toronto that day but she didn’t think they would be at MuchMusic because the producer would have told her if they were – but she figured that being with other superfans would be cool. She found it so hard to keep the fact that she was going to a TV pilot a secret, only telling her sister and parents.

The day finally arrived and Sibel decided to get up at 7am. She had hours until she had to be at the TV studio but she was going to go into town early with her sister Melike to see if they could see the boys at their hotel. It had taken them three hours in freezing weather to get there and it got a bit much for Sibel, who started to cry (they’d actually gone to the wrong hotel). She really wanted to see Harry, Liam, Louis, Niall and Zayn so much, even if it was just for a second, but there was no sign of them.

Sibel was still feeling emotional when they arrived at MuchMusic and saw the other 20 or so Directioners who were gathered there. No one had any idea what was going on but they were quickly ushered inside and their coats and belongings were taken off them. Sibel was called over to one side and taken into another room (along with her sister). Inside was the producer who had tweeted her and he said it was nice to meet her and asked her a few questions.
