Top profits on Youtube ? Eight-year-old Kaji got his start on the channel when he was just 3 years old by unboxing toys on camera. He’s matured to conducting science experiments and branched out beyond YouTube with a line of more than 100 toys, clothing items and more, a show on Nickelodeon and a deal with Hulu. High-minded programming can be found on YouTube—it just doesn’t make much money. YouTube’s ten highest earners brought in a total of $162 million between June 1, 2018, and June 1, 2019, including Ryan and Nastya, as well a five gamers who play popular titles like Minecraft and Fortnite. Dude Perfect (No. 2, with $20 million), features five thirtysomethings playing with adolescent toys like a giant Nerf ball, and Rhett and Link (No. 4, with $17.5 million), who perform food stunts like tasting Flamin’ Hot Cheetos-flavored Pop-Tarts.
Call it the “female Superbad.” Or read it for what it really is—a fantastic coming of age film for young women that has been sorely missing from the comedic canon for a while now.

Bathtub Baby Cousins: As hard as it may be to believe, this completely silly video about “tooting” in the tub has received more than 265 million hits since it was uploaded. It was created by Flowgo, a group that specializes in “Cute Toons, Funny Videos, and Big Smiles.” It features an animated bathtub with two babies in it; the babies faces are real photographs of infants, and they’re “singing” along with a jingle about passing gas in a bathtub.

Best video for a song in 2019 ? AJ Tracey might have been a touch worried about his mainstream prospects: the first single from his album only reached No 18 in the charts, and he was upstaged on one of his biggest tracks to date, Thiago Silva, by the bucket-hatted Alex going viral with AJ’s verse on stage with Dave at Glastonbury. Luckily, he had Ladbroke Grove up his sleeve. This shamelessly nostalgic UK garage track dominated the summer, AJ toasting like a club MC being heckled with champagne. No street corner was left unmolested by the words “Yo, it’s the hyperman set!” blasting from a hatchback’s open windows.
