I agree and i personally like the entrepreneur mindset these youtuber tend to have to make a successful living of youtube.

i for one want to see them do well cause i respect the fact they're trying to succeed doing stuff they love be it doing little comedy skits or just reviewing videogames and i like that the main source for the content they put out is coming from their own individual creativity as opposed to a network that has to scrutinize their content to appeal to several demographics.

i think reality tv in a way changed our perception on how we view stars.
there was a time where tv stars and entertainers where this bigger than life personas and even had formal training in acting but since reality tv became popular it seems the interest has changed to making regular ppl like you or me the stars

The difference for me is that at least youtubers try to put their own creativity to work but like reality tv part of their appeal is they're just regular ppl like you or me.
