I pretty much live on Youtube nowadays. I've been following Playlist Live this year and all the Youtube stars involved. It's been interesting to see the interaction between well known Youtubers and young fans. Overall, it's been a fun meet and greet in Florida from what I've gathered! However, while watching this fantastic event- something sort of struck me. These Youtube "celebs" have been getting gifts from their fans. Like, I'm talkin' about a lot of free and cool stuff.
This obviously strikes a jealous chord within me because I always love free stuff, more than baby whales! Aside from this, I thought it would be more appropriate for major Youtubers to give gifts to their audiences. I mean- without their obsessed-and-crazy-fourteen-year-old-girl-fans, they wouldn't be able to do their job.
I just find it funny. If I were popular on Youtube, I would be giving back to the community and my viewers. I would be like, "Yeah, thanks for watching my pathetic channel" or "here is a free paper clip to show my deepest and utmost gratitude".
