Kaleb And Taylor Good Morning America Interview

Long story short, Taylor and I will be on Good Morning America this Tuesday June 23! They interviewed us as part of a feature on an awesome new Instagram account called TheWayWeMet. To hear our story, make sure you watch GMA this week!

Engagement Photos In Malibu

950 633 Kaleb Nation

I took a road trip to Malibu, California, with my fiancé Taylor, our puppy-child Selfie, and our photographer friends Jade and Kaitlin Ehlers. We spent the day taking engagement photos on Malibu’s famous beaches and came home covered in ocean water and sand.

It was all worth it though. The photos are perfect.

We filmed it all for our new show Nation — we’ve gotten a bit behind on posting episodes because we’ve been working on some secret projects but the shows will be edited and uploaded soon!

Meanwhile… here’s the crazy way I proposed in front of 13,000 people:

Wedding is in October 2015!

How To Survive A Long Distance Relationship

1000 671 Kaleb Nation

Long distance relationships are tough but going back to an LDR is even tougher! When I left LA for a long business trip to the Bahamas, Taylor and I had to survive being long distance again… and realized exactly why we should NEVER do that.

Luckily, Taylor had a big surprise waiting when I got back. Watch our latest episode of NATION and tell us your long distance relationship tips in the video comments!

Did you see Episode 2? If you missed it, you can watch me propose to Taylor in front of 13,000 people at Youtube.com/Nation. Enjoy the show!

Kaleb Nation and Bfftaylor on Dr. Drew On Call

DigiProposal On Dr. Drew On Call

Taylor and I just did our first national TV show together! Watch it below or click here to see it on CNN.

Of course our first interview was with HLN’s Dr. Drew On Call because they are my favorites and Dr. Drew is a boss. We talked about the Digifest proposal, what it was like going down on one knee in front of 12,000 people… and gave them an exclusive on the wedding date!

I know it LOOKS like I hogged all of the talking time. This was Taylor’s first TV interview since she was 13 (on The Tyra Banks Show) and I didn’t want to make her speak up too much in case she was nervous.

She was awesome though — I’m so proud of her! We have more TV stuff on the way so next time she’ll do the talking… and I’LL wear the engagement ring. 😉

Watch our Twitter accounts @KalebNation and @bfftaylor to keep up with the wedding plans, and don’t forget to watch our new reality show at YouTube.com/Nation every week!

The DigiProposal On Ryan Seacrest!

Ryan Seacrest’s team filmed the entire Digifest event… and captured the proposal!

This is a video I’ll keep for the REST OF MY LIFE.

Here’s the original article on Ryan’s website. And you can watch my proposal video from the stage at Youtube.com/Nation.

Surprise Digifest Proposal (In Front Of 12,000 People)

1024 576 Kaleb Nation

I met Taylor at the YouTube convention Playlist Live. At Vidcon, she said “date me!” So at Digifest, on stage in front of 12,000 people, I said “marry me?”

I filmed everything. Watch the surprise proposal:

Both of us have been making YouTube videos for 7 years — Taylor at youtube.com/bfftaylor and me at youtube.com/kalebnation. When I started my channel, I had no idea that marrying a YouTuber was in my future.

Thanks for changing our lives, YouTube. Thanks Nationeers for watching my videos and convincing the people at Playlist Live to invite me all those years ago. Thanks Chris, Meridith, and the entire team for making my Digifest proposal possible.

And thanks to Ryan Seacrest for the awesome article about our engagement!

Be sure to subscribe to our new show — the wedding will be here soon!

Selfie The Puppy

950 950 Kaleb Nation

Long story short, we got a puppy. Taylor let me name her. So of course I named our puppy SELFIE… because what else do you name a puppy that everyone will want to take selfies with?

She already has her own Instagram account, a Twitter profile, and even a little website. But what else would you expect from a puppy who is ACTUALLY NAMED Selfie?

Most Bizarre Moments In My Life

500 500 Kaleb Nation

My life has had many bizarre moments. The past few months have seen some of the bizarre-est (sic). I talk about them all in my new vlog:

Some of the things I’ve been up to lately include….

  • appearing in at least 3 music videos, which have been seen over 100,000,000 times (OH SNAP)
  • being cast in a national Taco Bell TV commercial (100% TRUE)
  • guest-hosting Dr. Drew On Call on HLN at least 4 times (You were watching, RIGHT?)
  • adopting the most adorable puppy in the world (You won’t BELIEVE her name… but it’s REAL).

But probably leading all of the bizarre-ities (sic) would be discovering that my first novel, THE FARFIELD CURSE, was translated into Russian and has been in Russian stores since 2012. I had no idea. Nobody tells the author anything.

Watch my new vlog to find out how I discovered my book in Russian! Here are some photos:

 

Speaking of photos… here’s our new puppy…

“Don’t Cha wish your puppy was cute like me?”
