Exclusive: Rising Canadian talents Lane Webber Daniel Gravelle, June Laporte, Jordan Dawson and Hallea Jones have joined the cast of queer, indie music feature We Forgot To Break Up.

YouTube Red is ready to roll out a show aimed at "savvy" young viewers. A trailer has arrived for We Are Savvy, in which YouTube star Annie LeBlanc and a trio of co-hosts will use a variety of segments to inspire and entertain tween viewers.
We Are Savvy is billed as a scripted series, though it also features several elements typical of unscripted fare. When it was first announced back in August, it was billed as a "magazine-style" program broken down into segments. The topics covered in the show will range from Diy projects to life hacks, and the hosts will use interviews to add more depth to the subjects they cover. Guest stars will include musician Alessia Cara and supermodel Coco Rocha.
LeBlanc, who first rose to digital prominence as part of the Bratayley family, will introduce each episode. Her three co-hosts -- Spencer Barbosa, Tehya Silbermann, and Sarah Webber...
