YouTube Stars Mamrie Hart, Grace Helbig’s ‘#HeyUSA’ Returns With A Twist

Last summer, YouTube stars Grace Helbig and Mamrie Hart went on a tour of the nation as part of #HeyUSA, a travel show produced by Astronauts Wanted. In the latest episode of Hart’s web series You Deserve A Drink, she and Helbig announced that #HeyUSA will return for a second season that will bring other YouTubers along for the ride.

Hart will once again travel across the country while vlogging about her adventures, but Helbig cannot join the fun because she is busy with her upcoming talk show on E!. In her stead, popular YouTube stars will join Hart on the road. These YouTubers will be chosen by the fans; in its first season, #HeyUSA let viewers pick the locations to which Hart and Helbig traveled. This time, those viewers will select Hart’s travel companions and Helbig will maintain her involvement in the series by choosing the destinations to which Hart and her friends will travel.

If you have suggestions for YouTubers you’d like to see on the road, you can tweet your top five choices with the hashtag #HeyUSA. If you aren’t sure which names to throw out, Hart offers some guidance in the announcement video. “What also might be fun,” she says, “is if you guys choose a couple people that I haven’t really been around for more than a couple minutes [to] see how we do in the middle of nowhere.”
