Most people who go on YouTube have their own personal favorites who they look up every time they're on. Whether it is a comedian, a make up guru, a singer, or any other category, YouTube has something for everyone. Even I have my favorite make up gurus andcomedianswho I have subscribed to and patiently await a new video from every week...okay, every day. You get used to them being a part of your everyday life and you want more from them. You want to hear more of what they have to say, more of their opinions on things that matter to you. They are like your friends, you know them. Or at least know what they share with you.
YouTube is becoming more than a place for people to express themselves and their interests. It is becoming a breeding ground for fame. From Justin Beiber's (the singer of course) worldwide fame to Michelle Phan's (make up guru) make up empire and magazine appearances, YouTube has brought recognition, fame, and success to thousands of people and continues to do so today. Michelle Phan was on YouTube for years doing make up because that was what she wanted to do. It was what she loved. Now, she has been invited to Fashion Week, has been offered deals from numerous make up companies, has had endorsements to try different products and review them, and more. Just Beiber is the ultimate YouTube story. His worldwide fame spiraled from his YouTube videos when he was younger. Now, he has millions of endorsements, a record deal, and multiple platinum records.
So, now that you know the statistics, get started yourself! Figure out what your interest is and don't be afraid to show your personality through your videos. The most memorable people on YouTube are the ones who show the most personality. Yes, you watch their videos because you share the same interests, but you grow to love their personalities and that is what draws you back. So be yourself, personality is key. Now, here's a video on how to get started. Who knows? You could be the next Michelle Phan or Justin Beiber.
