YouTube Stars!

Here are a bunch of new videos from people we have written about before. We'll start off with a video from Renetto about the new video sharing community for vloggers - VloggerHeads.com. For more information on VloggerHeads, see out VloggerHeads blog.




OlgaKay made a fun collab with a few other YT ladies on Internet Crushes. They discuss guys they like. Watch and enjoy as they interact!




CelestialSam is an up-and-coming actress who is making increasingly intricate videos as she practices her craft. Here's a recent one on the topic of "madness" and "murder" !!!




Livingpassion recently uploaded a video in which she recited an enjoyable original poem, as she has often done before. This time, PeriUrban decided to set the words to music! Livingpassion responds to his value-added video by covering Peri's song. She sings her lyrics to his tune, pretty cool!




UndiscoveredJulie is back with a skit featuring her character "Totally Claire." Claire will teach you how to be confident! Very funny and creative, watch and enjoy!




Artemisbell has made hundreds of cool dance videos. She plays a popular song and then films herself dancing with high energy to the beat. Always graceful and stylish, here is a recent dance from artemisbell. Be sure to also watch the animated tribute response video!




Juststircrazy is one of the great new vloggers on YouTube. But her vids are more than vlogs, they are creative mini-movies; well written, acted, filmed and edited. Don't get the idea that Juststircrazy is an actor, she is very real. Check out this video about what Dance is, in her opinion.

One week to Christmas, are you ready??? Take a few minutes out of your hectic day and watch some YouTube Christmas videos! They are sure to put a smile on your face. :)

First, let's have a look at this week's Most Subscribed Chart. In positions 1 through 20, JamesNintendo Nerd, WhatTheBuckShow, AshleyTisdale (Ashley Tisdale is an actress from Disney's Nigh School Musical), and DaxFlame have all moved up one spot. WilliamSled, LinkinParkTV (videos by Linkin Park rock band), and GayGod all fell back one spot.

Big movers this week include SonyBMG, up 5 to number 60, and MondoMedia, up 6 to number 53. New to the chart this week are comic PatCondell at the number 89 spot, and UK vlogger charlieissocoollike debuting at number 98. LonelyGirl15, long at the number one spot, hangs on to the number 4 position even after months of slight drops in subscribers each week. Have a look at LonelyGirl15's Subscriber History. With a negative trend like that, LG15 will soon trade places with HappySlip or maybe even KevJumba or MiaARose who all continue to add subscribers steadily.

Now, on to the Christmas videos! We'll see two singing videos and two dancing videos by some of the nicest ladies on YouTube! Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good night!



Angelica says, "I went up in the mountains in Romania to record this music video with a good friend of mine...and we had a lot of fun making it... " Enjoy the heavenly singing of this talented woman as you are treated to views of wonderful Winter scenery.



15-year-old sweetie Tiffany Jo Allen does a fun and adorable cover of an old Christmas country tune! Have you subscribed to Tiffany Jo yet?

I told you recently about superdancer artemisbell. Diana usually doesn't allow embedding of her vids but this time, she did! Check out the zest and energy she sends out in this fun clip!



Here's one of my all-time favorite YouTubers, Daragna, dancing and lipsynching to "Santa Baby!" 17-year-old Welsh YouTubeStar Angharad John uploaded this video last Christmas. It's still one of my favorite videos!

I would like to tell you about two talented female videomakers. Normally, I'd embed some of their videos in this post. However, both ladies have decided to set their videos to "Embedding disabled by request." So, I'll just tell you about these entertaining women and give links to their videos on YouTube.

But first, The NEWS. There is not much movement this week in the top 50 of the Top 100 Weekly Chart. But there are some nice movers in the bottom 50. MarieDigby, LazyLionProductions and Mememolly all made nice moves on the 41-60 page. Wowhobbs, a World Of Warcraft channel, moved up 8 to the number 88 slot.

The once mighty Lonelygirl15 channel has been losing subscribers lately. According to the Subscriber History for lonelygirl15, we see that the channel has been losing subscribers since it peaked at 101,357 on 9/23/2007. Will current number 1, Smosh, fall from the top like Lonelygirl15, Brookers, FilthyWhore and Geriatric1927 all have? If we look at the number of subscribers they have versus number two, universalmusicgroup, it doesn't appear that they will leave the top spot any time soon.

Recently, we reported on the YouTube community's reaction to the fact that Oprah is on YouTube. Since then, there has been one more video of note on the Oprah "Hullabaloo" from popular videomaker Boh3m3. Please have a look at his thoughts on the matter, in his video titled An Apology / All the Hullabaloo (language warning!)


Artemisbell

A few weeks back, I was visiting with my young niece and nephew and something in the conversation caused me to begin singing the chorus of a song that I had not heard in years! I did not remember who sang the song, but I did know it contained the phrase "Love and Desire." So I searched for these words on YouTube and found a video that used the song as a backing track. The video portrayed a woman having a wonderful time dancing to the tune.

The woman in the video is Diana, an artist living in Arizona. She has made over 180 videos, almost all show her dancing to songs from the 60s through today. The first words on her profile sum up her attitude: "Have Fun...Do what you want to do...even if you're criticized." Diana certainly has fun making her dance videos! I also enjoyed her dancing to New Order's Blue Monday, Billy Idol's White Wedding and Madonna's 12 inch version of Burning Up. For more on Diana and her art, please visit her website.


Bicycleconnoisseur

I'm not sure how I first came across this very intelligent and charming young lady. I do know that the first video of hers that I saw was titled amerenglish. Lydia, living in the UK, discusses something that always interests me, the differences between British English and American English. I was struck by the level of presentation by someone of this age. Lydia is 15 and explains in her explanation video that she has been "technically labeled as gifted since I was about three." She is not saying this to boast, but it is clearly true as seen in this video!

Please also watch Lydia's commercial break, a cool faux advert for a Casio keyboard. And don't miss her question and answer video series, starting with Part I. Click here to see a list of all of Lydia's entertaining videos.
