Record-Breaking launch for Safe Zone with one million views on YouTube

The new original production from Newen Digital, co-produced and hosted by Faustine Bollaert, has surpassed one million views in just four days.

This exclusive YouTube release premiered on Sunday, July 9, featuring an intimate conversation with content creator Océane.

The upcoming episodes will welcome inspiring personalities followed by millions across social platforms, including Nicolas Anselmo, Mybetterself, and Darko.

In less than a week, the first episode surpassed one million views, and over 50,000 viewers subscribed to the show’s YouTube channel to follow the journeys and rise of each guest. The series dives into the impact of sudden fame, how their loved ones perceive their success, and the toll of online hate and pressure from “views” on their mental health. Safe Zone skillfully blends curiosity and emotion, offering viewers a deeper understanding of each guest—all set in a warm, cozy atmosphere in Paris.

This new show is part of Newen Studios’ broader strategy, launched in recent years, to diversify its content and clientele and to continue developing original productions.

“I’m incredibly proud of this show and its success,” says Faustine Bollaert. “Bridging generations to better understand the phenomenon of digital creators feels essential to me. Creating connection, openness, and kind dialogue—I’m thrilled these values are also resonating on YouTube.”

“Beyond the impressive audience figures, it’s the thousands of positive comments from our community that confirm this format truly hits the mark,” adds Olivier Levard, Director of Newen Digital. “There was clearly a need for a space—championed by Faustine Bollaert—where content creators are listened to with empathy and their talent genuinely celebrated.”

Don’t miss the second episode airing Sunday, July 16, featuring creator Juste Zoé.
