Other than this episode being completely unrealistic and might as well have been some sort of dream sequence, this was a very special episode of Lizzie Mcguire.
From what I remember, Aaron Carter was really big back in those days. So the fact that Lizzie Mcguire was able to snag a guest spot from Aaron Carter was commendable. Just a feel good episode overall, and I loved how Lizzie, Gordo, and Miranda teamed up with Matt to meet Aaron.
Many laws were broken here, and I was surprised none of these people were arrested to be honest. Running away from the lamest security guard ever and getting no repercussions from the parents? Maybe I should break in to Aaron Carter's dressing room some day. The kiss between Aaron & Lizzie was hardly a kiss, and I cannot believe I freaked out so much when I saw this at such a young age, not to mention, it was incredibly cliche.
The music video at the end was a very big deal, and this was also the start of Aaron Carter & Hilary Duff's relationship, so there's that. It's a shame how bad their relationship turned out to be. Overall, a good episode that lacked realism, but still was very good.
I cut it some slack considering I reminded myself that I was watching a show on Disney Channel show.moreless

Season 1,
Episode 18,
Aired
EDIT
Episode Summary
Lizzie and Miranda are excited about the news that singer Aaron Carter is coming to their town to do a video shoot. They enlist Gordo to help them figure out where the shoot will take place so they can crash the set and meet Aaron. Matt horns his way into the group also. When they arrive at the site Matt is mistaken for Aaron's stand-in and let on the set, but the other three are not. They try several ways to sneak in but are always chased off by a security guard. In all the confusion Mr. and Mrs. McGuire somehow manage to get detained by security. Aaron's manager catches the trio and Lizzie convinces her to at least let one of them meet Aaron. She agrees, and Lizzie tells Miranda that she can be the one. Lizzie goes back to get a tape recorder she left behind and runs in to Aaron, who gives her a kiss. The kids all get to be extras in the video.moreless

Trivia
ADD TRIVIA- In the opening scene, Lizzie has food spilled on her. In the next shot, there is a glob of food on her right shoulder, but in the next one it's gone. Edit
- Clayton Snyder (Ethan Craft) is credited in this episode, but he doesn't appear in this episode. Edit
- When Jo pulls up at the video shoot she looks at the guard and goes "I'm Jo McGuire Lizzie's mom, I spoke to you on the phone" but she never did. She just listened to the machine then left. It is possible that she called them on her cell phone but she doesn't copy the phone number down so how would she had known? Edit

ADD ALLUSIONS- Scene: Lizzie, Gordo, and Miranda outside the studio Sitting outside the studio in elf costumes, Lizzie, Gordo and Miranda assume the "three monkeys" pose--see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. Edit
- Scene: Jo bouncing a ball against the wall. When Jo McGuire is put into a holding room, she's seen sitting on the floor repeatedly bouncing a rubber ball against the wall. This is a little tribute to the 1963 war film The Great Escape in which Steve McQueen's character does the same thing. The music playing in the background is an imitation of the movie's music. Edit
- Scene: Ren-Mar Warehouse The "Ren-Mar warehouse" where Aaron's music video is being shot shares its name with Ren-Mar studios in Los Angeles, where Lizzie is actually filmed. Edit
