“And then I joined Impact, a meet-and-greet tour,” Herron recalls. Seavey, who plays several instruments, was the only one to gain his platform from national television - a once untraditional mode of launching a career now made to feel quaintly old school - when he placed in the Top Seven on on American Idol. Avery covered Ed Sheeran’s catalog for his personal YouTube page. Herron’s posted a cover of Shawn Mendes’ “Stitches” on Instagram that earned 20 million views when cross-posted to Facebook. Besson and Marais were live streaming their home performances on platforms like YouNow, sometimes for audiences as large as 60,000 at once who would tune in to watch the teens croon.

This may seem like a mundane exercise, but the band knows it’s important work. The process becomes more complex as an irreverent short film emerges, soon involving 18-year-old Daniel Seavey, who had already posted a photo of 19-year-old Jonah Marais, who calls himself the group “dad” based off his barely older age and generally more coolheaded demeanor - sipping his coffee off to the side. The giggling 16-year-old is in the middle of directing a intricate Instagram story, in which his Why Don’t We bandmates hold up matching mugs of hot chocolate at a restaurant a few blocks away from Live With Kelly and Ryan, where they just performed their sugary singles “These Girls” and “Something Different.” Herron’s bandmates, the blonde Corbyn Besson and curley-haired Jack Avery, both 18, begrudgingly oblige, and Herron posts it as a story to Why Don’t We’s 2.1 million Instagram followers.

("I feel like I'm being stung by 1,000 bees all at once," Taylor told Loudwire in 2015. "It's so Auto-Tuned and it's so beat corrected and it's so canned and processed and lifeless.") We'll just go ahead and pretend that Slipknot singer Corey Taylor never said pop music is "insulting".

"The world doesn't have enough Slipknot x pop music mashups so I decided to make this," DJ Cummerbund revealed before jokingly thanking *NSYNC members for their creative contributions.
