How Do We Score an Invite to This Kid's Bar Mitzvah?

By Lisa Horten

For Jewish kids, turning 13 isn't just a birthday, it's a rite of passage (and if they're lucky, an excuse for the party of a lifetime). And that's why Brody Criz wasn't taking any chances with a run-of-the-mill printed invitation. The gregarious tween took to YouTube to make his own MTV-worthy music video inspired by Pharrell Williams's "Happy," Lorde's "Royals," a quick shout-out to "Let It Go," and . . . we really don't want to spoil the over-the-top grand finale for you, so you'll have to watch for yourselves. Mazel tov, Brody!
