ZHC turns a music video shoot into a 20-laptop giveaway for Bella Poarch and a classroom full of strangers.

Zach Hsieh, the YouTube artist known as ZHC, built his channel on hand-painting one-of-a-kind gear and handing it to people who never saw it coming. On July 26, 2021, he took that formula onto the set of Bella Poarch’s “Build a B*tch” music video and surprised the TikTok star with 20 custom-designed MacBooks. What started as a personalized gift for one of the platform’s biggest names turned into a donation drive for students who needed a laptop far more than Poarch needed a second one.

• ZHC hand-customized 20 MacBooks and surprised Bella Poarch with them on the set of her “Build a B*tch” music video, where ZHC also appears in a cameo.
• Poarch kept just one custom MacBook for herself and asked ZHC to give the other 19 to students in need.
• ZHC and his team followed through, distributing the laptops along with school and art supplies to the students selected for the giveaway.

The Setup on a Viral Music Video Set

By mid-2021, Bella Poarch had gone from a viral TikTok lip-sync clip to a signed recording artist, and “Build a B*tch” was her real introduction as a musician rather than just a face on the app. ZHC used the shoot as the backdrop for the surprise, catching Poarch on set rather than at a studio or her home, which gave the reveal the same spontaneous energy his channel is known for. He also landed a cameo in the finished video, tying his art project directly into the release rather than treating it as a separate stunt.

The MacBooks themselves were the centerpiece of the surprise — 20 units, each individually painted and customized by ZHC and his team rather than mass-produced with a single template. That one-at-a-time approach is the signature of his channel’s giveaway videos, where the labor of hand-designing dozens of items is as much the story as the reveal itself.

Poarch Redirects the Gift

The twist came after the reveal. Instead of walking away with all 20 laptops, Poarch chose to keep a single custom MacBook and asked that the rest go to students who actually needed one. It reframed the entire video from a celebrity-gifting piece into a charitable giveaway built around Poarch’s own request.

Poarch kept one MacBook for herself and asked ZHC to send the other 19 to students in need.

From Studio Set to the Classroom

ZHC and his team honored that request by tracking down students in need and delivering the remaining 19 MacBooks alongside school and art supplies. It’s the same charitable-giveaway format ZHC has used in other large-scale projects on his channel, where custom gear doubles as a vehicle for getting practical resources — laptops, art kits, school essentials — into the hands of people who wouldn’t otherwise have access to them.

The pairing of a viral pop star’s gift with a classroom-facing donation gave the video two separate emotional payoffs: Poarch’s reaction to seeing 20 hand-painted MacBooks made for her, and then a second wave of surprises when students found out they were each getting a custom laptop of their own along with supplies for the school year.

Fans looking for more of this era of internet culture — the collision of viral fame, big giveaways, and moments nobody saw coming — can find plenty of it in the controversial and headline-grabbing celebrity moments that defined 2021, a year where TikTok-born stars like Poarch were rewriting how fame and generosity got broadcast to millions.

ZHC’s Giveaway Formula

This wasn’t a one-off stunt for ZHC — it’s the same large-scale giveaway blueprint he’s used across his channel, whether he’s customizing gear for a single celebrity or running a bigger community challenge. Viewers who want a sense of the scale ZHC and similar creators operate at can look at other massive giveaway and challenge videos, including World’s Largest Challenge! and World’s Most Dangerous Escape Room!, both built on the same idea of turning a big production into a payoff for the people on the receiving end.

Poarch walked away with exactly one MacBook out of the 20 ZHC painted for her — the other 19 are already sitting in classrooms, backpacks, and art carts somewhere, which is a better ending than any influencer unboxing video was going to give you anyway.
