It’s A GlamBOT World & We’re Just Living In It

Lights, camera, Glambot

Three.. Two.. One.. Action!

The special four words everyone can’t wait to hear when an event happens. In recent years the red carpet has evolved from a mere walk of fame to a gorgeous cinematic experience – all thanks to the GlamBOT.

And although we’ve probably all heard of the GlamBOT, and even seen some of its spectacular moments, who is behind it? And how has it become so popular?

Cole Walliser is the creative mind behind all of these famous GlamBOT videos you see all over your TikTok and Instagram. Walliser is a director and filmmaker, and when he is not capturing these glamorous shots on the red carpet, he’s directing music videos and working with stars such as Katy Perry and P!nk.

Cole really knows what to bring to these shots, adding his own cinematic touch and creating the viral moments we know and love. From the Oscars to the Grammys, this slow motion camera has become a staple at any major celebrity event capturing stars in their exceptional outfits with breathtaking shots.

Long gone are the days of traditional posed photos, now it’s all about the most perfect, viral moments to spark social media buzz! And on the topic of most perfect… how does Haley Kalil get it perfect every time?

Haley Kalil (better known as HaleyyBaylee), has become a GlamBOT pro having perfected her technique. With her flawless timing, confidence and attention to detail, Kalil never fails to impress us.

Her preparation for these stunning shots go beyond just striking a pose, she knows her angles and how to use her dresses to create those beautiful visuals that pop in slow motion. By finding her signature dress throw, she has created something highly recognised .

@colewalliser I think both Haley and I were excited about this one. This was the third time I shot Haley this awards season, and she was a pro after the first, so no explination was needed, but this was a bit of a hectic moment on the carpet as the GlamBOT was about to shut down for a minute so I was so glad to get this EPIC one. Obviously for me, one of the coolest things about directing the GlamBOT is just meeting new people, and Haley was no exception, especially because we got to hang in New York (did you see our street GlamBOTs!? lol) anyyways TLDR this was the best. #haleyybaylee #haleykalil #colewalliser #glambotbts #livefrome #oscars #academyawards ♬ original sound – Cole Walliser

Kalil has only done four GlamBOTs so far, the most recent being the Grammys this week, but has already managed to secure the title of GlamBOT Queen. Let’s not forget that before Kalil’s rise to fame she was a model and rightfully crowned as Miss Minnesota in 2014.

But does that really matter when it comes to the perfect GlamBOT shot? Many celebs have stunned us with their first try GlamBOTs, some examples being Chappell Roan at the 2025 Grammys, Madison Beer at 2024’s awards and the most unforgettable – Ariana Grande at the 2020 Grammys.

But not every celeb gets that first try luck. When people think ‘bad GlamBOT’, nine times out of ten, they think of Joey King. But what’s really so bad about it?

The questionable fashion choice by her styling team? The awkward pose? The thumbs up? Unfortunately there will never be a definite answer but what we do know is that there is always a chance to redeem yourself. That is exactly what King did at the Screen Actor Guilds Awards 2021 and wow, did the internet love it!
