Generation YM Launches New LGBT YouTube Series HACKER GIRLFRIEND

Generation YM announces the launch of HACKER GIRLFRIEND, their new, original LGBT content Youtube series sponsored by Maxthon. The series follows sexy, tech-vlogger SassiBoB through a string of hilariously nerdy adventures with a twist and stars viral personalities like SassiBoB, Jessica Lizama, and KeeptheHeat's Alex Russo.

"SassiBoB in Hacker Girlfriend takes the phrase 'sexy geek' to a whole new level," says Keith McElwain, CEO of Generation. "Her performance is energetic and funny with crazy plot turns and hilarious twists from start to finish!"

LGBT identified people make up more than 70 percent of the cast and crew of Hacker Girlfriend, and producer and lead actor Stevie Boebi (SassiBoB) is highly regarded in both the LGBT and vlogging communities as a professional and creative content creator.

"The story itself will appeal to a broad audience that spans outside of the niche, but our dedicated cast and crew all work extremely hard to maintain a healthy and realistic portrayal of all the LGBT characters," says Hacker Girlfriend director Sarah Croce, who brings a creative and professional eye to the mix. Croce, a pioneer of the LGBT movement on YouTube, previously directed Words With Girls and was Producer/ Writer of Unicorn Plan-It.

The series also stars Natasha Nicole who is rapidly becoming a household Youtube name and face due to her successful vlogging and social media personality

Embracing the vlog-style that the Youtube stars of the show are used to, and mixing it with an innovative House of Cards straight-to-camera element, Hacker Girlfriend breaks the fourth wall in a way that forges a direct connection between the characters and the viewer. The result is an engaging and successful series that will be a hit with a wide range of gamers, geeks and vlog fans.

"I like to make stuff," says Boebi. "Of all the stuff I've created, Hacker Girlfriend is by far my favorite. It uses vlog style to tell a scripted story, kinda my thang."

Hacker Girlfriend includes plenty of gamer references, tributes to geeky classics - from Pokeman and Batman to Doctor Who and The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy - and the latest in Android technology. The series is bubbling with all things tech, so it comes as no surprise that the first episode is sponsored by a long-time favorite of the truly internet-savvy, Maxthon.

"Maxthon is known by gamers the world over for its superior speed, performance and 'just for gamers' features," says Karl Mattson, VP and GM of Maxthon. "And, being gamers ourselves, we can't deny the pleasure of seeing justice-served, SassiBoB style, to a particularly awful CoDtard in Hacker Girlfriend."

Not just a story, Hacker Girlfriend is also a game within a story about gaming that any viewer can play. The contest begins as a scavenger hunt that challenges the viewer to find key objects hidden in each scene and ends with a true test of movie mastery by asking viewers to match quotes from Hacker Girlfriend to their favorite movie titles. Prizes include t-shirts, give-aways from the set, and a special chance to have a meet and greet with the cast. Viewers will enter the contest at: http://HackerGirlfriend.com
