"What we've done is we've adapted our online content into a stage performance." Rose tells us

"We've basically taken everything that has been really popular on our YouTube channel. It’s going to be a lot of spontaneous stuff, a lot of audience participation, a lot of familiar segments and it’s going to be a great opportunity for us to engage with our audience on a personal basis.

"We've both been on the stage actually, last year we decided to do a meet and greet in London and we did a bit of a stage show with it, it did so good we decided to make a full stage show! Our audience was so welcoming and warm that even though we were nervous, it was so fun!

Rosie adds: "We really don’t know what will happen! We never script our YouTube videos and that’s what we want our live show to be like - spontaneous and fun."

Rose Ellen Dix and Rosie Spaughton both started making YouTube videos as a hobby, with neither of them knowing just how big their online presence would become.

Their channel RoseEllenDix, Rose's main channel, and Rosie's main channel TheRoxetera have ballooned to include hundreds of comedy, gaming and topical videos as well as them expanding their internet presence with separate channel Let's Play Games solely for their gaming videos.

Rose tells us how she first discovered the world of YouTube and why she made her very first video.

"I went to university and I studied Film and Screen Media, and one of our modules was called Online Content.

"In this module we learned how to make a video go viral, back then YouTube really wasn't what it is now, and I just did it as a hobby.

"Luckily, I managed to get a few thousand hits in the first week! So I carried on.

"Then I met Rosie, we started making videos together, and it all just manifested from that! Our audience has grown with us too because they've seen us from the start."

"It’s crazy to me that we have so many followers now because Rosie and I just do what we did in the beginning - we talk, we have fun, and we’re just ourselves - it’s crazy how that has become popular!

"It’s crazy to me how we've gained such a fantastic audience, we’re living the dream, we really are blessed."

Both Rose and Rosie used to make YouTube videos respectively before collaborating.

A chance meeting at a party led to love blossoming between the pair - a love with millions of viewers.

"Well, we met because we used to date the same girl! Not at the same time!" Rosie laughs "I threw a Halloween party when I was around 17, 18, and Rose sent me a message on Facebook just saying 'I'm not invited, but I'm coming to your party' - very bold - and when we were both single we got together".

"Rose used the videos as an excuse to date me kind of, she’d be like “I have to see you this week, we have to make a video!”, so as our relationship blossomed, so did our YouTube channel".

The public eye hasn't affected their relationship negatively however, in fact their viewers are as much a part of their relationship as the couple themselves.

Rose says "I was thinking about this the other day actually, because we started filming our videos at the start of our relationships we don’t really know it any other way! We've always filmed it."

Rosie agrees with this, saying that "we don’t find it weird at all, if anything it would feel weird now if we weren't doing it!

"I'm so used to just turning on the camera and sharing everything with our fans. We see our audience like our family, and it definitely doesn't put any pressure on us.

"I think there would be if we were a couple and then put a camera on us but it's just always been the same."

The thirty minute video featured a brief clip of the couple dancing to the stars single Shake It Off.

The couple fought to not have the video muted so as they did not lose their wedding vows and speeches among other precious memories of the day - and they succeeded.

"We've got a story about this actually exclusively for our stage show that we've never ever shared with anybody!" Rosie says

"All I can say is it's a great story involving panic, a bit of vomit, and a great twist...Oh and Taylor Swift!"

Rose and Rosie have become LGBTQ+ icons with their relationship in the public eye and their consistent addressing of important issues that affect the LGBTQ+ community.

in 2016 the pair won the Celebrity Rising Star award at the British LGBT Awards, one of their proudest achievements to date.

"It was incredible, so many amazing people were there as well such as Sir Ian McKellen, and we got handed the award by Mel B and I was a huge fan of the Spice Girls!" Says Rose

"Duncan from Blue was there, it was just so surreal."

"It really was surreal." Rosie concurs

"I was so obsessed with what I was going to say to say thank you because I was like 'God, I am in a room with like, real celebrities!'”

"It just goes to show how amazing our audience is." Rosie says

"We were up against some insane competition and our audience made it so that we won.

"When we started doing YouTube we were just messing around in our rooms, we never thought we’d be winning and award so to be here now winning an award was so humbling."

Rose and Rosie see their audience as family, and they address them as such, by not only making entertaining videos to make them laugh but also by making videos that deal with sensitive subjects to raise awareness and love.

Though nervous to branch into more serious content, Rose tells us that the reactions they have received have been heart-warming.

"I was a bit nervous, I was always tempted to steer down the not-so-serious route because I always wondered if it would be too serious for my comfort level.

"I think the first one I did was about my OCD, and it went down really well and I realised the positive impact it could have just talking about it and how I got over it.

"I actually find that these videos are actually some of the most valuable videos that we've done. It’s great that we can talk about these things and also help people take their mind off things. It’s amazing to just share stories to an audience that just want to listen."

This close relationship with their audience however, has led to some bizarre and funny fan encounters

"There was one encounter that was really funny!" Rose begins "It was sort of strange and bizarre but lovely, we were walking in our home-town of Worcester and this girl came up to Rosie and kissed her on the cheek. I thought it must be an old friend Rosie hadn't seen in awhile..."

"...And I thought it was one of Rose’s friends" says Rosie

"And this girl was just like 'Hi! I haven’t seen you in ages!' and I guess it was just that because she watches us so much she feels like she knows us personally, which is lovely! A lot of our audience do" Rose says

"It is lovely that our audience sees us like that, we've made tonnes of friends through making these videos with other YouTubers, with our fans and even our fans have made friends with other fans." says Rosie

"Some are dating, some are even engaged now!"

Looking to the future after their live tour, Rose and Rosie have big plans, for their channel and their personal lives.

Rosie fills us in "Rosie and us both have a similar dream, we really want to write a show for Netflix. Like an original series, it would be even better if we could star in it too!"

Rosie adds "In our personal lives, we've seen our relationship go from the start to marriage so I think next children will be the next serious step."Read more at:www.marieaustralia.com/black-formal-dresses | www.marieaustralia.com/pink-formal-dresses
