The internet world is a vast one, full of the good and the bad, and allowing us to explore a variety of different subjects, and watch and read a wide range of different content. The emergence of the internet celebrity has also dawned, with popular online platforms giving birth to such titles as ‘Influencers’ and ‘YouTubers’.
Yes, that’s right; people make a massive living sharing content on Instagram and YouTube. It’s a mad world, isn’t it? When it comes to YouTubers, there’s a huge amount of people who have found fame via the online video-sharing platform by covering a whole variety of topics. From gamers, who might be exploring casino games in ZA or sharing FIFA 20 tips, to health experts, YouTube’s content is comprehensive. Throw in the likes of Keyboard Cat and Hitler’s Downfall, and getting stuck down a YouTube wormhole is a real and relatable possibility.
With YouTubers becoming modern-day celebrities and pulling in massive crowds, we thought we’d highlight some of the more successful characters worth watching online. Of course, it’s entirely subjective, but there’s generally at least one YouTuber you’ll take to.
JackSepticEye
At the time of writing, Irish YouTuber JackSepticEye has over 24 million subscribers, and it’s easy to see why. A friendly, warm presence, Sean McLoughlin initially rose to fame following a shout out by humongous YouTube star PewDiePie. A gaming channel with humour and fun at the forefront, the Irishman’s swear-riddled commentary and all-round likability make him worthy of the list, especially for gamers out there.
Shane Dawson
A documentary maker on YouTube and a person known to share his conspiracy theories on various other YouTube celebrities, Shane Dawson is someone who won’t appeal to you unless you’re aware of famous YouTube faces. If you’re in the know when it comes to YouTubers, then Shane Dawson is an interesting person to subscribe to and follow. Jake Paul and Jeffree Star might not enjoy his docuseries’, but other people do, in fact a whole 23 million of them.
Yuya
The world of makeup and beauty also gets huge attention on YouTube, which is exactly why YouTubers like Yuya have thrived on the platform. With just under 25million subscribers at the time of writing, Yuya’s hair, makeup and style tutorials have earned her millions and enabled her to become one of the highest-earning beauty influencers online.
Luisito Comunica
Who doesn’t love going on holiday and exploring our magnificent planet, right? We can’t get everywhere, though, which is where people like Luisito Comunica come in. The travel vlog specialist has amassed a following of just under 32 million, where he showcases his travels around the globe. If you have an interest in the culture and history of countries, then Luisito Comunica is well worth a watch.
Kids Diana Show
Kids love YouTube and worship a number of YouTubers, with some being in a similar age bracket to the stars they’re watching. That is exactly the case with the Kids Diana Show which follows the lives of Diana and her little brother Roma as they unbox toys, go on adventures, and sing songs. With over 55million subscribers at the time of writing, Kids Diana Show is one of the biggest channels on YouTube.
Dude Perfect
Famous around the world for performing trick shots and all types of craziness with famous athletes, Dude Perfect is one of the most popular channels on the platform with over 51million subscribers. Cory and Coby Cotton are joined by their three college friends Tyler Toney, Garrett Hilbert, and Cody Jones as they provide laughs and tricks to a worldwide audience.
