Oops -- sorry, Rob, I missed that nuance when I read your post originally. You're right -- she is trying to repeat the phenomenon.
Not trying she
is repeating the lonelygirl15 phenomenon.
Did you look at the stats for her latest video? 256k veiws, 20 reponse videos, 17 honors, and 2511 comments (most are from haters and people calling her fake, but then what else is new?)

Consideration, the only thing wrong with this is that the girl is locked in a room and terrified. This does not fit free will. However, Aima could fit the bill.

That's true. But the Order has violated free will before. Alex said so herself.
Not that any of this really matters though. One nice little coincidence that makes itscassie look really good. I was kidding about her being canon.

now i'm starting to wonder if this new girl is someone they're going to introduce in the near future, or if it's really just foreshadowing for
this girl's story starting this summer??

I don't have a myspace page, so I can't view the page that abcdefg has linked to. Could somebody tell me/us who it is?

Either way:
Bebo lands 'UK's Lonelygirl15'
Stephen Brook
Monday April 16, 2007
MediaGuardian.co.uk
Social networking website Bebo.com has won exclusive rights to the UK spin-off of Lonelygirl15, the US online video diary that became a massive success on YouTube.
The new video blog, KateModern, launches in July and will tell the story of a teenage university student in London and her struggle to balance her complex social life with "the dark forces that shadow her".
Users of Bebo, the British social networking site, will post messages for the show's characters, exchange plot ideas and upload their own videos to the characters' profile pages.
KateModern will incorporate puzzles and mysteries into its plot for viewer participation.
Advertisers will be able to feature their brands in the video diaries, a practice banned from UK television.
"The nature of the medium allows for the feedback to be integrated into the plot, unlike on television, where lead times and production issues make such interaction impossible," Bebo.com said today.
"This interactive relationship has been credited as a major component of the success of Lonelygirl15 and is an important aspect of the 'KateModern' experience."
Lonelygirl15, which told the story of Bree, a Californian teenager living in a religious family, became an internet phenomenon last year on the video-sharing site YouTube with more than 50m views of 170 episodes.
It captivated internet viewers even when the stories were exposed to have been scripted by three men in their 20s, Miles Beckett, Greg Goodfried and Mesh Flinders, keen to break into Hollywood. "Bree" was revealed as New Zealand actress Jessica Lee Rose.
The trio now refer to Lonelygirl15 as the "world's most popular interactive drama".
KateModern will premiere in July, initially on Bebo.com and then on the Lonelygirl15 website, LG15.com.
