YouTube Red has greenlit another series for younger audiences, a Canadian magazine-style series featuring segments on music, fashion, DIY, lifestyle, and celebrities entitled We Are Savvy.

Additionally, Annie LeBlanc from the popular Bratayley YouTube channel (4.8 million subscribers) has been added as a host for the second season, which will comprise 13 episodes, according to Variety. LeBlanc, 12, counts 2 million subscribers on her personal YouTube channel, 10 million followers on Musical.ly

., and 3.7 million followers on Instagram.

“We loved the concept of We Are Savvy, and we’re excited to bring the first magazine-style show to YouTube Red,” said Nadine Zylstra, YouTube’s head of kids and learning originals. “We believe the inspirational girl power message will resonate with audiences.”
