The Very Mysterious Case of Hayley Leblanc

Top, Rainbow Shops. Leather shorts, Nonchalant. Hat, H&M. Choker, Forever 21.

It's a scorching spring day in Southern California, and Hayley LeBlanc is in the middle of a serious Main Character Moment.

It's not just her starring role on Brat TV's hit Chicken Girls (where she just wrapped her iconic turn as Harmony *sheds tear*), the fact that she's been a beloved YouTuber since she was barely in preschool or even her effortlessly cool aesthetic (hanging out in an abandoned pool, snacking on Bomb Pops, as you do).

After a year that, in her own words, has been her most important yet (“I'm a teenager now, which is crazy! she says), Hayley is leaping into what might be her biggest adventure to date: releasing her very own book.
