Tana Mongeau apologizes for Tanacon.
After the popular YouTube convention VidCon did not present her with the coveted “Featured Creator” title for the 2018 gathering, influencer Tana Mongeau took matters into her own hands. On May 26, 2018, Mongeau announced her own convention called Tanacon, which was set to occur in the exact same city and during the exact same weekend as Vidcon—a mere four weeks after her announcement. As a result, Tanacon was a disaster and resulted in upset fans and parents alike, who waited in the blistering Anaheim sun only for the convention to be canceled prematurely. A little over a month later, Tanacon Mongaeu posted her apology video. Surprisingly, Mongeau gives a pretty genuine apology and airs out the background for how the convention went totally wrong, but she waited way too long to make a statement and the convention itself was a massive oversight.
