YouTube Stars!

Not long ago, we brought you Vlogs To Think About - 3 videos with messages. This time we'll show you a genuine interaction between two people who let their guard down and talk openly about how they really feel, deep down inside.

But first, The News!

This week's Featured Video on our Top 100 and Top 200 Charts is a fun video from young actresses and friends Sammi Hanratty and Stella Hudgens. @SammiHanratty1 has been on iCarly and stars in the upcoming movie "The Greening of Whitney Brown". @stellahudgens was in TV Show "According to Jim" and the movie "The Memory Thief". She is Vanessa Hudgens sister. Watch them sing and clown around!

We have a NEW Featured Video every week on our YouTube Top 100 Chart. If you missed any of our Previously Featured Videos, you can still watch them here.

Check out our Top 100 and Top 200 Charts of the Most Subscribed YouTube Channels every week!


Congrats to UndiscoveredJulie! It's been over a year since we heard from this queen of improv and wacky comedy. Julie is back to tell us that she is now married and has an adorable little girl. Thanks for the update and best wishes to you and your family, Julie!



Now, watch this heartfelt exchange between Alissa and Will.


MissAlissa15 is a 19 year old woman from Oregon with a magnetic personality. Her charming comedy and vlog videos are very popular on YouTube. Alissa recently made a different kind of video called "Delete" in which she talked about how helpful it can be to write out a long emotional message and then delete it without sending it. She admits that she gets depressed and thinks a lot at night. She remembers that she used to be able to confront someone who hurt her feelings in order to try to work it out. But now she writes long unsent messages as a form of therapy rather than risking rejection by actually sending such messages. Watch and listen to Alissa as she explains herself better than this description!






Tumnusmusic is the music channel for a young man named Will who was inspired by Alissa's video to talk about the anxiety he has felt recently. His feelings are generally the result of his sense of loss of a dear friend who intentionally took a fatal overdose. Will speaks from the heart and sings an original song about his friend, in his video response. I was moved and so was Alissa. This exchange is in the comments:

you, sir, absolutely fascinate me. i am in love with the way you carry yourself. it all seems so awkward, calculated and passionate. i know you've got so much in your heart and that makes you absolutely beautiful. incredible song and vlog. thanks so much for sharing yourself with me :) ♥

Alissa has a second channel named MissPepperoni. In this emotional video, she thanks Will for his response video. She says she loves response videos and also that she can identify with people who have anxiety and depression issues like she does. She says that response videos like this make her feel less alone.



Right before this video, Alissa made a fun video in which she grooves to various songs. Watch that video to get an idea of how she usually appears in her videos!

How's your summer going so far? Been on vacation? Spending your time by the pool? Seen some good movies? I'll bet you've watched a ton of YouTube videos! Here are four fun summer videos you may have missed.

But first, The News! Michael Jackson may be gone but he's not forgotten. He may become more famous after death than when he was alive, much like Elvis Presley and Marilyn Monroe. Did you see the Memorial Special on TV yesterday? I did, many moving moments, especially at the end with Michael Jackson's 11 Year Old Daughter "Paris" Tearful Goodbye. Here's a link to some clips from the Michael Jackson Memorial program.

Michael Jackson is growing in popularity on YouTube too! Last week he entered the Top 100 Weekly Chart for the first time, and at number 39! This week, Michael Jackson moved up another 10 spots, with 63,495 new subscribers. How much will Michael Jackson move up next week? Be sure to check The Chart each week!

Be sure to watch the Featured Video on this week's YouTube Top 100 Weekly Chart - YouTrax Bunch - a parody of the Brady Bunch opening credits! This is an excellent video made by Michael Boyce on his tinkermusic and YouTraxTV Channels. Michael does interview videos with YouTubeStars like Krista Nicole, Tiffany Jo Allen, Alyssa Bernal, Angelica Vasilcov, Savannah Berry and many more!

Do you have pets? How'd that go for ya? Having pets is a responsibility if you want them to stay alive and thrive. It didn't work out so well for Alyssa. First the mice died, then she tried Cactus plants - should be easy to care for them, right? Umm, well, let's see how that went! :) Alyssa always makes fun videos, watch them all and subscribe!

Have you recently lost a pet? Here's an article on how to deal with it.
Are you in a Long Distance Relationship, like Alyssa? Here's ideas on how to make it work!

HayleyGHoover is one of the best young vloggers on YouTube! She is funny, creative, a good singer and actress. She's also a teenager, and teenagers have "a lot of angst!" So she's used to getting looks when she displays it, but now she's getting a different look. Why? Watch the video!




Lucy is another great young vlogger. Here, she talks about two recently popular websites, "What the heck!?!? These websites are stupid!" But Lucy finds some funny posts on the sites. Watch and enjoy Lucy's insights!

Here's a new website that's definitely Not Stupid! TweetJunction is a place to post pics, videos, blogs and more - then Twitter them out with the Tweet It button!

Here's one from Last Summer. Alissa sings a song thats amusing right from the first chord. She tells you how to put a link in the YouTube description in the sidebar, and how to point to it! Just push Play, and enjoy!
