Forbes has published a rating of the highest paid YouTube stars. In the first place of the top ten was suddenly ... a seven-year-old boy. He is the same as all children of his age: he loves constructors, cars and trains. He also has 17 million subscribers and made $ 22 million last year. But first things first.
10. Logan Paul, $ 14,5 million
In January 2018, 23-year-old Paul was kicked out of the Preferred YouTube program, which provides lucrative advertising rates to popular channels, after he filmed a video in Japan showing a body after a suicide. He apologized. His video revenue and brand deals are huge, and he is kept afloat by a loyal fan base.
9. Pew Die Pie, $ 15,5 million
The scandal did not stop Felix Kjellberg, a Swedish gamer with a record number of followers on YouTube (72,5 million). Despite the negative public reaction last year after reckless anti-Semitic videos, advertisers returned, offering up to 450 000 dollars for a sponsored video.
8. Jacksepticeye, $ 16 million
The energetic Sean McLoughlin is Ireland's most popular YouTuber, best known for his video game reviews. A few bad words didn’t stop him from breaking out of the mainstream: he made the episode for Disney and is developing exclusive content for Twitch streaming.
7. Vanoss Gaming, $ 17 million
Witty Canadian gamer Evan Fong plays famous games such as Call of Duty and Assassin's Creed. On the side, he launches his hip-hopera career, but the music (for the time being) is not as profitable for him as the subtle art of being a sane rely.
6. Markiplier, $ 17,5 million
Markiplier plays all day on PS4, but at the same time does not lose time for nothing. A gamer visited North America, signed a seven-figure deal, and with Jacksepticeye released Cloak, a high-profile sports line for gamers.
5. Jeffree Star, $ 18 million
The make-up artist, known since Myspace, has become a beauty mogul and cofounder of the Jeffree Star Cosmetics company, which annually sells eyeshadows, lipsticks and highlighters for 100 million dollars.
4. DanTDM, $ 18,5 million
Last year's leader Daniel Middleton, a British gamer specializing in Minecraft, has been playing in front of a video camera for six years now, amassing about 20,7 million people who buy, including his branded products - backpacks, baseball caps and sweatshirts.
3. Dude Perfect, $ 20 million
This sports team of five (Cobe and Corey Cotton, Garrett Gilbert, Cody Jones and Tyler Tony) specializes in clever tricks like throwing a ping pong ball to trigger a series of Oreo cookie dominoes - this video collected 175 million views.
2. Jake Paul, $ 21,5 million
The younger brother of disgraced Logan, who occupies the tenth place, receives income from his prosperous commercial business. He drew over 3,5 a billion views of rap songs and a variety of ridiculous pranks in just one year.
1. Ryan ToysReview, $ 22 million
Ryan, like the rest of the seven-year-olds, has a passion for Lego, toy trains and cars, and he is also in awe of the seventeen million users who keep him company as they review the boy's toy reviews. His latest achievement is a line of collectibles already on sale at Walmart.
