The story I was told was that my mom found me playing a Bop It at some preschool event when I was very young. I then got my first Bop It, the Bop It with Shout It (2009) for Christmas when I was 7 years old. Been building it up more and more ever since!

In the United States, there are 31 different actual working versions, which I own at least one of each. I have many duplicates in different revisions in programming and color variants, as well as Bop It units that the sound chip was recorded in a foreign language!

As of December 2023, in my New Year’s Eve special, I made an update to My Bop It Collection, which had been begged for by my YouTube for a while, since my last actual walkthrough was 2020. In 2022, I counted them all up and came up with 112. As of June 20, 2024, I have hit 200 total units in my Bop It collection! And I will continue to rack that up for as long as I can! You can view the total number of Bop It games I own by clicking the ‘Bopitropolis!’ tab on the navigation bar at the top on desktop, and in the Menu button, then the tab on mobile!

I created my YouTube channel on February 9, 2020. I wanted to have a channel for the longest time so I could share my passion with others! And so far, it’s working! As of December 31, 2023, I have reached 3000 subscribers, and that number will continue to grow!

Bop It has gone international so much, and it has been made and programmed with sound chips in languages I never would’ve guessed!

From the best of my knowledge, Bop It has been recorded in the following languages:

English, French, Latin American / Mexican Spanish, European Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, European Portuguese, German, Dutch, Finnish, Italian, Russian, and Japanese.

I want to find a Russian one so bad. In fact, I wonder to this day if there was a Korean version at some point that was available in South Korea! That would be so cool! I love Japanese and Korean things!

It’s a funny story actually. I was talking with one of my exes a while back, and I had this thought in my mind about becoming a pop star for a future career, but then I remembered my singing voice sucks. Anyway, I told them I felt like a pop star that loves and is passionate about Bop It.

I wanted to get rid of my previous title, which was ‘Bopitmaster8’. I wanted to do that for a while, as I’ve owned the title since 2017, even when I first started making videos frequently, although I didn’t have a YouTube channel until 2020.

So a couple weeks later, I was laying on my couch at about 2 in the morning, wide awake (I mostly sleep during the day), and I was playing around with an AI editor. A poll on my social media had just ended on what my viewers thought would be a perfect title for me, considering I now identify as female.

The winning choice for both polls I put on YouTube and Twitter / X (when I had it) were the same, and it was ‘Bop Diva’. I came up with other titles as well to fill in the options, and I inspired my options off one of my favorite artists from the late-90s up until early-2010s… the legendary Miss BRITNEY SPEARS!

I had read that Britney got the title “Princess of Pop” because she brought teen pop music back to life, especially during the first years of her career in the late-90s into the 2000s.

So, long story short: where did I come up with ‘Bop Diva’?
Two words: Britney. Spears.

Trust me. You’d rather want to watch the 2020 Presidential Debate than hear me sing! Seriously! I’ve tried singing before on my YouTube channel, including Christmas 2022, but it sounded terrible! I’ve recorded myself many times for YouTube videos, more times than I can count, and I’ve recorded my singing before. It sounds three times worse than I thought it did! And no, it’s not the software I record it on! I’m working on feminizing my voice a little bit, and making it sound higher and more feminine, but I’ve got quite a bit of work to do on it…

Actually, what I use is nothing super high-tech and fancy.

Hardware-wise, I have an HP ProDesk that used to belong to my mom's business she owned, that runs Windows 11. I have a MacBook Pro (Intel, 2020), an iPad Air (4th generation, 2020), and an iPhone 15 Pro Max. I also have a Logitech HD 1080p webcam that is connected to my PC, but sometimes the picture quality gets fuzzy and doesn't focus.

Software-wise, I use the Camera app on my Windows 11, QuickTime Player on my Mac, sometimes OBS for recording on my Windows with an overlay, and the cameras on my iPhone and iPad. The high quality test mode videos I make are actually done without having any coils or anything connected. I just put the speaker of the game next to the microphone on my iPhone.

For editing, I make all my intros and graphics to overlay using Microsoft PowerPoint, and all the animations for text are done with PowerPoint, which I then convert to video format, and put in a video editor and frequently, I use Green Screen effect on the PowerPoint video to overlay on my videos. The editing software I use is iMovie for my Mac, my iPhone, and my iPad, and Microsoft Clipchamp for my Windows PC.

Absolutely you can! If you have a question that you would like to ask me, let me know on a Direct Message on my socials! For messages, I mostly use Instagram more than anything, so feel free to drop in on Instagram @bop.diva. You can even drop a question you may have on my YouTube channel by clicking here. There are plenty of ways to get ahold of me! And, if your question is good enough—a question no one else probably knows the answer to besides me—your question might just so happen to end up on this page!
