UK telecoms giant O2 has teamed up with StudioB to launch Access All Areas, a brand-new YouTube series designed to celebrate music fandom in an entertaining and interactive way.
Blending competition with community storytelling, the series introduces an “imposter-style” format where die-hard fans must prove their loyalty—while secretly trying to identify a fake fan hidden among them.

Episode One: Kesha Fans Put to the Test
Filmed at O2 Forum Kentish Town, the debut episode centres around global pop icon Kesha and six of her most dedicated superfans.
Across a series of knowledge-based challenges, contestants are pushed to demonstrate their expertise and passion. However, there’s a twist: one participant is an imposter, secretly coached by the production team to blend in convincingly.
As the group works together to uncover the fake fan, viewers are treated to a mix of tension, humour and genuine fan dedication—making for compelling entertainment that taps into the psychology of fandom.
Hosted by Formz: Entertainment Meets Community
The series is hosted by online creator Formz, who guides contestants and audiences through each challenge.
Beyond the competition, Access All Areas shines a spotlight on the deeper meaning of fandom. The first episode explores powerful personal stories within Kesha’s fan community, particularly highlighting queer experiences and the singer’s journey as an empowered figure in the music industry.
This blend of storytelling and gameplay reinforces how music fandom can foster connection, identity and support among fans worldwide.
Spotlight on Priority from O2
The series also promotes Priority from O2, the brand’s initiative offering exclusive access to tickets, events and experiences. By tying the show into real-life fan rewards, O2 continues to position itself as a key player in bringing audiences closer to the artists they love.
What’s Next: AntsLive Takes Centre Stage
A second episode is already on the horizon, this time focusing on rising UK rapper AntsLive. The upcoming instalment will highlight emerging talent while exploring how fan communities play a crucial role in supporting the next generation of artists.
