YouTube Stars!

This post is about slut shaming, from the point of view of Hannah from the YouTube channels YayHanYay and Hanna BooksAndBeauty.  We will look at two recent videos from Hannah on this topic, and then, just for fun, watch one of her very early, and very funny, videos!

I have been a fan of Hannah since she started sharing videos some 5 years ago.  It has always been apparent to me that she is witty and intelligent.  She makes thoughtful comments on the books she reads, and she reads a lot!  Hannah can improvise and has comic sensibility and timing that seem natural and not forced.  You can see some of that in the last video below.

But first, let's see what Hannah has to say about a recent picture that Kim Kardashian posted in a tweet, with "breasts covered and her lady garden covered."  In other words Kim Kardashian was naked but not exposed.  That tweet received many different replies, some of which Hannah feels can be considered slut shaming.  Hannah does not care for labels and feels that it is "damaging and leads to darker places".  Hannah points out the double standard between the sexual stigmatization of female versus male behavior, and notes that when women are calling other women sluts, they are making it okay for society to say it to women.

Hannah talks about replies to Kim Kardashian's photo from Chloë Grace Moretz, Lena Dunham, Amber Rose and Pink.  She feels that it was absolutely fine for Kim Kardashian to post that pic because she builds a good part of her career around how she looks, both stylishly dressed and at her discretion, undressed.  Hanna says that women's breasts and bodies are sexualized by society, and that women are much more than just their bodies, they are human beings who are multi-dimensional -- they may be a mom, business woman, wife, sister, daughter.

Hannah feels that women should be able to do what they want and be what they want.  Women can be a model or they can be a scientist; whatever their goal is, they should go for it! Watch the entire video and listen to many other points she makes, in addition to the ones discussed above.



Hannah says in the description, "We shouldn't be soooo offended by someone being naked....ITS COMPLETELY NATURAL!! And if you slut shame a women just know your shaming us all! ♡ Lets Chat! ♡" The chatting has begun in the video's comments. Watch the video and join in the chat!

Now we'll see a book review by Hannah, which touches on many of the same topics. Here, Hannah reviews a Young Adult (YA) book called THE DUFF, by Kody Keplinger. Duff is an acronym for "Designated Ugly Fat Friend." The book was turned into a movie which was released on February 20, 2015. Hannah reviews only the book, and considers it one of the worst books she has come across! She backs up her assessment with many examples of the damage to girls from words and attitudes which are described in the book. Watch Hannah's review and I think you'll want to see more book reviews from Hannah!



Let's go 5 years back in time and see an early funny video from Hannah on her original channel. The above videos are from Hannah's Books and Beauty Channel. Here is a classic Hannah video where she comments on one of her own videos. She makes cultural references and observes that we should make friends but we should not be pressured into doing so. I like to imagine that Hannah had a few key words on a cue card and just improvised her dialog based on the topics she wanted to touch upon. If you like this video, subscribe and comment, because "every comment helps!"



See more of Hannah at her Vlog Channel, where she talks about Breasts, Cultural Appropriation, Political Correctness, Feminism and much more!

Happy Valentine's Day! When you think about it, you realize every day could be Happy Heart Day. Why celebrate Love just once a year? Love comes in different forms. Love expresses itself in different ways. Often there are power dynamics internal to the couple. Often there are twists and the one who, to all the world, appears to be dominant might actually be willingly submissive to their partner.

From all accounts, the new movie, Fifty Shades of Grey, based on the book series by E. L. James from 2011 and 2012 is going to draw huge crowds. What is the attraction? Is it the fact that Anastasia originally started out as Bella and Christian was Edward, in a fan fiction work based on the Twilight series? Is it the strong personality and physical attraction of Dakota Johnson, daughter of Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith? Maybe the sleek physique and penetrating charm of Jamie Dornan? Ultimately, the movie and book series have to stand on the strength of the story. Who has the power in the relationship. Who is dominant and who is submissive? Is there a true love here or merely a massive physical attraction?

And what about the soundtrack? Already, Ellie Goulding's song from the movie, Love Me Like You Do, has nearly 50 million views! Its a typical modern pop love song, with a bit of a hook. The video features scenes from the Fifty Shades Of Grey movie, along with Ellie Goulding flitting around moody sets. Here it is, enjoy!

Now, lets go way way way back. Lets go back Fifty Years and see what the subject matter of Fifty Shades was like in the 60s. In 1967, the legendary proto-punk Andy Warhol supported Indie Alt generally-strange and groundbreaking band, The Velvet Underground, released a classic album, The Velvet Underground and Nico. On said album we find "Venus in Furs". This is a hauntingly beautiful dirge, a slow hypnotic trance, featuring some of the following lyrics sung by band vocalist Lou Reed:

Shiny, shiny, shiny boots of leather Whiplash girlchild in the dark Clubs and bells, your servant, don't forsake him Strike, dear mistress, and cure his heart. Severin, Severin, speak so slightly Severin, down on your bended knee Taste the whip, in love not given lightly Taste the whip, now plead for me.

There are further lyrics. Let it flow over your consciousness, especially if you are a fan of Fifty Shades Of Grey. I think you'll be happy to hear this, if you have never had the experience before. Just. Click. PLAY! (If you dare)

Sticks and stones may break my bones, but whips and chains excite me!

It's almost time for the Holidays! What happens to most of us during the Holidays? We eat too much! We just finished with Halloween so we may have eaten a ton of candy. Next comes Thanksgiving and that is usually a gorge fest. The end of the year is more of the same, as we visit with family and friends. What can we do to stay slim, healthy and in the best shape possible?

Dance Workout!

Watch Heather Vaughn on her JellyBeanNose YouTube channel as she gives a fun tutorial on how to do a workout dance to Psy's huge hit, Gangnam Style. Heather, 23 years old and from Chandler Arizona, is a talented dancer who makes dance cover videos as well as random videos about Korean and Japanese things, kind of what we saw from Miss Hannah Minx.

Here's how to learn this dance workout! First, watch the first part, where Heather talks you through the moves to do during the chorus of the song. Then practice those moves throughout the entire song. Finally, for advanced dancers or workout people, do the rest of the moves that Heather does! Soon you'll be that Sexy Lady or Dude!

Of course the real key to being sexy is to feel confident about yourself and to project that confidence. Wherever you are in life, take stock of the good things in your life, and give thanks for what you have. If you decide to improve any area of your life, set a goal and make a plan. Do research - use YouTube as a source of instruction and motivation. Never compare yourself to others, but strive to be the best you can be. Love yourself as you are and move forward!

Happy Holidays to all our readers! Our visit count is approaching 1.5 Million and we would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who reads YouTubeStars, comments and shares the posts on Social Media. You all rock!

Hello my dear readers! I have been checking my stats. We get about 400 page views a day, lately. It seems that several keywords that people search on before they come here have some variation of "YouTube Sex" in them. There are keywords such as youtube se x, youtube sex, you tube sex, and sex on youtube. So to satisfy my readers (pander to my readers?) who want something youtube sex related, here are two videos of people stripping down to their underwear in public. I know the title of this post is YouTube Sex - Stripping Naked in Public, but there are no actual sex acts going on in these videos, nor is anyone naked. But there are lots of people in their underwear, so I hope that satisfies you! 50 years from now, or 100 years or more into the future, when someone is curious about what kinds of undergarments were worn in the early years of the 21st century, researchers may come across this post and learn all they need to know about underwear considered stylish or at least popular in entertainment pieces in the distant past.

We'll start off with a video from way back in 2001 by Alt Emo power pop punk band, Jimmy Eat World. The song is called "The Middle" and tells us that everything everything will be alright alright, kind of like The Beatles told us in Revolution. It went to #5 on the Billboard chart, and you probably remember both the song and the video, which was on heavy rotation on MTV. A bunch of 20-somethings are having a wild house party, and Jimmy Eat World is the entertainment. The theme of the party is - party in your underwear! Panties, bras, boxers, briefs - they are all here in many colors and varieties. Those wearing these under things are in quite good shape, in a stereotypical manner of speaking, according to what society considers to be hot bods. One guy wants to be different from everyone else in the crowd, and you can see what happens to him as the others dance, jump in the pool, drink and make out in refrigerators!

Here's a very recent video by a very new band, that is in a sort of competition with One Direction for the tween to teen and beyond pop music market. One Direction is from the UK and is receiving hundreds of thousands of views on their videos, including the song every teen knows all the words to - "(That's) What Makes You Beautiful". Their competition is 5 Seconds Of Summer, or 5SOS, who are of similar age, appearance and sound, but from Australia. In addition 5SOS play their own instruments and have a little harder rocking sound, which still using the same pop hooks. Last winter, 5 Seconds Of Summer released a song from their new album, titled, "She Looks So Perfect". This video has "only" 70 thousand views; less than most 1D videos. Maybe some tweens are banned by their parents from watching this? "You look so perfect standing there in my American Apparel underwear!" School kids, diner patrons, supermarket shoppers and even a cop strip down to their underwear for no apparent reason, other than to attract attention to this video!

Perhaps you too like to strip down to your underwear in public! Well you better plan ahead and make sure you're wearing new and Clean underwear! Get some at Amazon - they sell everything. Sure, you go there to buy books and music and DVDs and electronics, but dang it get some new clean underwear there too!

Back in the 80s, when MTV actually still Was Music TeleVision, the concept of music videos was fairly new. No one knew exactly what to do or what could be done with a music video. Before MTV and the Music Video revolution of the very early 80s, videos were made for a very few songs as promotional material, designed to boost record sales. But on 8/1/81 when MTV went on the air, or over cable actually, it seemed that every sing needed to have an accompanying video to make it a legit song. That meant that many videos were made on low budgets. Bigger budget videos tried to outdo each other for attention. By late 1983, Michael Jackson released a 13-minute music video for "Thriller," directed by famous Hollywood film director John Landis.

Taylor Swift goes back through the years and alludes to styles and cliches used in previous songs and videos. This is what happens in the entertainment world. People "borrow" lyrical ideas and video looks that others have used in the past. If done right, with enough modification and injection of personal style, people accept the allusion to past works and it helps them identify with the current offering. However, if people feel that the artist is blatantly ripping off previous works, they will complain of plagiarism. Both opinions are represented in reviews of Taylor Swift's new song, "Shake It Off".

It is likely that Taylor Swift will Shake Off most criticism of her latest song, "Shake It Off" because the song is actually about ignoring haters. Have a look and decide for yourself. Is this popular new Taylor Swift video, with 3 million views on day one and now 15 million views on day two, a tribute or a rip off or something entirely different?

Yesterday saw the release of the new Nicki Minaj video, Anaconda. This video is also controversial, also features elements from the past, and includes lots of dancing. In this case, the connection to the past is deliberate. The song includes samples from the 1986 hit dance song, "Baby Got Back" by Sir Mix-a-Lot. That song told of Mister Mix's appreciation of women who had a figure that was little in the middle but having much back. His Anaconda didn't want none unless she had buns. He obviously liked big butts and he could not lie about it.

So Nicki Minaj made a video celebrating the effect of her twerking butt on someone's Anaconda. In addition to twerking scenes, the video features banana eating and whipped cream shooting on Nicki's chest. Some say this video promotes porn and strip clubs. Take a look and decide for yourself. If you are a parent with young children, you might be interested to see this very popular video by Nicki Minaj that got 10 million views on day one, and decide if your children should see this or not.

Where do you buy your music? Why not get it at Amazon.com! They sell everything there! Shop at Amazon.com for music, electronics, clothes, even food! Here are some items available at Amazon related to Taylor Swift and Nicki Minaj. Have a look, and check out other things for sale at Amazon as well. Happy Shopping!

Word Crimes has Weird Al commenting on the current state of writing in the Western World. We make a lot of mistakes as we text, blog and chat with each other! Like "I could care less!" Which means you DO care. At least a little!

The video starts off as a breeze blows pages of a dictionary. At 4 seconds we see the word "accordion" with an accompanying picture of Weird Al playing an accordion. This is an allusion to his earliest videos. He played the accordion to his first song, "My Bologna" which was his version of "My Sharona" by The Knack; both songs are from 1979.

Since this is a parody of Blurred Lines, a video with nudity and sexual innuendo, it's no surprise that Weird Al has several sex references in here. Did you see them? Watch the video and see if you spot the sex jokes!

The Blurred Lines innuendo, "What rhymes with 'Hug Me'" becomes "What's a contraction?" which could be considered a sex allusion in a stretch. After all, the act that rhymes with Hug Me could result in Contractions 9 months later. :P Also, "Your particliple's dangling" is portrayed in a certain way in the video; might be a stretch again. But the 2 clear sex references I saw were #SomeCunningLinguist at 2:20 - referring to the word play on an oral sex act. Just a little sex pun! The other sex reference is blatant and is straight from any Middle School lunch room or playground. "Weird Al" has a big dic-tionary, at 3:32. Did you catch these? See any others?

Word Crimes currently has over 12 Million views. The other viral video from Weird Al's latest offering is "Tacky". It features some fairly well known celebrities dressing tacky and dancing tacky. More goofy than funny or clever, in my opinion, but really not bad! What do you think?

OK, so as you already know, I like all kinds of music. Most of what I have on my playlist is fairly obscure and a little strange. That's the way I like it! Remember when I told you about my love for Ladytron and The Dandy Warhols, here? Well I found something new that's pretty cool, very trippy, psychedelic and similar to the Warhols.

Earlier this week I was watching David Letterman, and saw he had a band coming up with an interesting name - Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger! OL, that's sounds cool, right? So I wait until the end of the show and out comes these hippy trippy looking people. There's this attractive girl on Bass, and two dudes with long hair and black hats on guitar. Two drummers, one guy banging on something which I don't even know what it is! They look all Goth Hippy Shoe Gazers, and the song is too; cool! Soon three dancers come out, with Large animal masks covering their faces! Turns out, the song is named Animals. Luckily, Letterman uploaded the performance to YouTube, and here it is!

I wondered if there was an "Official Video" from the band for this song. I'm totally digging the guitars and the oooo-oooo aaah-aaah vocals, and that guy in the middle looks quite a lot like.... Time to research more. WOW, no wonder why the guy in the middle looks like..... And then I found the official video for Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger, singing Animals. Far Out, MAN!!! Made to look like one of those cult films from the 60s where people gather in the woods and have crazy ceremonies, this video rocks if you're into that kind of thing, or weirdness in general! Now don't be watching this if full frontal nudity of the female body, in an artistic form, bothers you. Because nudity is in here. No sex, just nudity. Each of you can make up your mind as to whether this is ok or not. Check it out and decide!

Did you know that you can learn about sex from videos on YouTube? Yes, you can learn things about sex, which is a serious matter that can affect your entire future life. If you decide to have sex and are not prepared, you may end up with a child and/or a disease!

At one time, you could learn about sex from your parents, sex education at school, a book, friends, etc. Now there are YouTube videos about sex that may be of some help to some people. It's probably still best to learn about sex from your parents or a medical person or a reliable book. However you learn about sex, make sure you are getting accurate information. Try to get accurate and reliable answers from multiple sources that all agree; then you can have confidence that you found the right answers.

Here are two videos each from Kicesie and TheWingGirls. Watch them and decide if you think they are giving good advice. You may want to use them as a point of discussion with your parents or a trusted friend or authority figure in your life. Remember, don't do anything you are not comfortable in doing; don't do anything just because you think everyone else is doing it; don't put yourself in a risky situation by mixing intoxicants and temptation; don't act without thinking of the consequences.

I wrote about Kicesie before, back in 2007. I did a post on Sex Videos on YouTube and mentioned her video called "Virginity Part 1". On November 4th of last year, I tweeted, "@Kicesie respects virgins who are waiting for the right time to have sex. We agree. http://youtubestars.blogspot.com/2007/10/sex-videos.html"
She retweeted it, so it is safe to say she still feels the same way. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin. It is smart to wait until you think that it is the right time for you to have sex.


Here is Kicesie's recent video, in which she says she heard that 20% of guys think that if they have sex with a girl while she is standing up - that she can not get pregnant. A woman can get pregnant if she has sex in any position. Watch Kicesie and Karen (Spricket24) and you might learn something.

From the video's description:

Seriously.... I get questions from guys having sex that don't even know what an STD is. If you don't KNOW the logistics, don't do it. Once you do know, be responsible enough to avoid STDs and unplanned pregnancies.
If you hear a rumor about avoiding pregnancy that sounds a little crazy, it probably is. Research everything to make sure you're hearing it from a reliable source.

Here is a video Kicesie made to explain how she learned so much about sexuality. She asks, "How Did You Learn About Sex?" and there are over 1000 comments, so you can get an idea of how other people learned about sex.





The Wing Girls, Jet and Star, are just that - 2 girls who want to be "wing" persons - someone who is in your corner to give you advice on the opposite sex. In general, I like their concept of giving advice to men from a woman's perspective. Their approach is generally humorous and some of their advice is useful.

They seem to have variable messages - they are all over the place. Sometimes they validate conservative positions and other times they mock them. Sometimes they are serious but generally they are comedic and almost goofy. They classify themselves as improv and they do seem to be "winging it" although there is obviously a general script.

Their advice is Subjective, no evidence for Objective positions are given. This is the opposite of Kicesie. They give stories from experience rather than scientific results from studies. This lowers their credibility and questions the authority and accuracy of their advice.

Their content is somewhere more than PG-13 but maybe not quite R. These videos contain strong language so do not watch if that offends you. Several of their videos are flagged 18+ on YouTube for language. Here is a controversial video about oral sex. Is this good advice, or is this women telling you how to manipulate other women?





Here is something a little different - The Wing Girls get a guy friend to teach guys how to dance. "Maybe look a little bit stupid... as long as you look like you're having fun!"

Tomorrow morning, Thursday, July 22nd 2010, ABC's Good Morning America will do a story about Cyber Bullying. In their promo, they show part of a video that was originally posted on the KerliGirl13 channel last week. KerliGirl13 is also known as Jessi Slaughter, an 11 year old Florida girl. Her story is emotional and complex. Here is an outline of what happened.

Jessi a.k.a. Jessica Leonhardt, a young girl aged 11, has been on the internet for a while. She had accounts on many Social Networks such as MySpace, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr, YouTube and Stickam. Jessi was a fan of techno pop band Blood On The Dance Floor and its singer Dahvie Vanity. "BOTDF" sing songs about oral sex, sluts, whores, etc.; which many would agree is inappropriate for 11 year olds. Pictures were posted of Jessi and Dahvie, and posts appeared at StickyDrama. The first was on July 10th, which alleged sexual relations between Dahvie and Jessi. Then on July 12th, a post appeared which claimed to give Jessi's side of the story:

"People STFU This Is A Very Private Matter And Im Dealing With It.
This Post Ruined Muh Life… I Have Muh Life And Dahvie Has His.
We Are Just Friends!"

Next, a video appeared on YouTube on the KerliGirl13 channel, which has since been hacked by someone and then removed from YouTube. It was titled "Haters... Piercings... StickyDrama =D"

The video has cursing and is not for children! This is a copy of the original. Jessi states at 0:26 that "if you can't... stop hating, I'll pop a Glock in your mouth and make a brain slushie..."



Right after that, Jessi released a video titled "Muh Emotional BreakDown Over All Of You Guys Sh*t!" Jessi is crying and is upset with "haters." Her father appears in the video, yelling at people who have allegedly threatened his daughter. This is the video that Good Morning America has on their site at the moment. Many people have reposted this video on YouTube with titles such as "Ya Done Goofed" and "Consequences Will Never Be the Same." It's a two-part video, here are both parts:





As all this blew up on the internet, various groups and websites became involved. Read more at MSNBC. Here is an interview with Jessi's mom. Now it is alleged that Jessi's family have been placed under 24/7 police protection due to death threats, although a Sherriff's Office spokeswoman supposedly has denied that there were any death threats. Read more here.

If you are a parent, you might want to think about whether your child should be online, especially if they are posting videos for the world to see. I hope you were able to get an understanding of what could happen when children are allowed to interact online, by reading this post. For more information about sex videos and things children probably shouldn't be watching online, read some of my articles at LookingForClues.

This post is for parents, to show them what is available on YouTube. If you are a child, please click here to read an article I wrote about iCarly.

I just read an article at LookingForClues, a website I sometimes write for (my articles - here). The name of the article is "Banned Sex Music Videos on YouTube - Is There Too Much Sex In Music Videos?" I decided to do some research and see if these music videos that the article says show sex and nudity are actually on YouTube. I did find the videos on YouTube and some do show nude girls.

If you are a parent, you should know that these kinds of videos are on YouTube. You can watch them yourself and then decide if you want your children to see them. The article says that this kind of thing could be harmful to the young. They may "think that they must achieve physical perfection, and an obsession with body image can lead to unnecessary dieting." I tend to agree.

Here are some music videos that are mentioned in the article. Beware - there is some nudity in some of these videos.




Wicked Game - Chris Isaak

This video was never banned and the author of the article mentions it as an example of how to be subtle when depicting sexual themes in a music video.





Girls on Film - Duran Duran

This is the "night" version which was banned in several countries and/or only shown at night.





Eric Prydz - Call On Me

Some will call this overly suggestive as it features lots of thrusting hips!





There were a few other videos mentioned in the article "Banned Sex Music Videos on YouTube - Is There Too Much Sex In Music Videos?" Some are Embedding disabled by request and others are too much like porn for my taste, so I won't be showing them here! If you are over 18, you can decide for yourself what you want to spend time watching. If you have young children, you might want to do some research to find out what is shown in some YouTube videos.

This post is for people who are 18 years old or older. If you are not yet 18, please click here to read an excellent article I wrote about the popular Nickelodeon TV show, iCarly.

I have known about this new site for a few months now, and I've been debating about whether to write about it, or not. I am now posting on it because I want to get the word out to parents with younger kids, or people with younger brothers or sisters. If your children have access to the internet, they will more than likely hear about this site and may be interested in visiting it. Read this post and watch the 4 videos to understand what this site is about. Then decide if you want your children to visit it, or not.

ChatRoulette (CR) is a website that connects the webcam on your computer to the webcam on someone else's computer, at random. You will see and hear them, and they will see and hear you. You can also type to each other. You have no idea who's image is going to pop into the top window of the CR screen. You have no advanced warning of what they might be doing. You also have no idea if they are actually on the webcam or if they have hacked the site and are playing a pre-recorded video, which is not uncommon.

In many cases, it is fun and interesting to see who shows up to video chat with you on CR. The videos below will give you a taste of what kind of craziness goes on at CR. But please be warned! A high percentage, as high as 10% or more, of the people who will pop up in the video box will be guys who have their sexual parts exposed. This is something that you probably don't want to see yourself, and you wouldn't want your younger children or siblings seeing this. There is no way to know what will pop up in the video box. You can "Next" the person, which disconnects them and brings up a new connection in a few seconds. But you will never know what they may be doing.

Women do not expose themselves as often on CR, but there are often groups of guys using CR who encourage females they may be connected to, to flash their chest, etc. Please be aware of my main point - you never know who will randomly be connected with you when you go on CR, and what they will be doing or showing. The rules on the CR site are succinct: "Rules: 16+, clothes, report button" so if you do visit the site and see inappropriate behavior, use the Report Button!

Here are 4 videos recorded from the CR site that are very popular on YouTube right now. They will give you a taste of what goes on, on the CR site. Beware - there is some bad language in these videos.




MeMeMolly has been on YouTube for years and lately has been making videos for the RocketBoom channel. Molly gives an introduction to the site, letting you know how to do the initial setup. It doesn't take long before Molly runs into a guy with his penis out - it occurs at 1:40 and they have blurred the scene out. Molly agrees with me; at 2:26 she says she would not recommend it for anyone under 18, or those at work.






"This video is not suitable for children" - this is the opening warning in this video. Adults may get a laugh out of 2 guys who are improvising comments and songs in response to whoever shows up in their video box. One comment they make is, "Aren't you glad we're not a couple of naked guys!" Of course they did get connected to a guy masturbating, at one point. I repeat, you might not want your kids on this website!





This video starts off by stating, "Viewer Discretion Advised, This video may contain swears" - and it does on 2 occasions. But for adults, you may be amused and impressed by the improv this man does. He sings an improvised song in response to whatever he sees in the CR video box. "Merton" of the PianoChatImprov channel just joined on March 08, 2010 and only has 2 videos so far. But he was already up to #79 on our YouTube Top 100 Weekly chart. This video has over 3 Million views in the last 6 weeks.





Ben Folds did something similar to Merton, but he did it live in front of 2,000+ people. This video starts out with the comment that "there are dirty words, ... but we edited out the penises." This video has 3.5+ Million views.

Our guest blogger, Diana (beautiful picture at left), is back with an interesting review of 4 videos by MissHannahMinx. We first found HannahMinx on YouTube last Fall. She is a college student who likes to wear cat-ear headbands and speak Japanese. She is a black haired punk rock fan with big eyes and a cute voice. She is 21, lives in Philadelphia, and is a single Scorpio.

What's a Minx? Hannah defines it on her MySpace page: an elusive feline or flirtatious girl living in urban areas, loving lace and black ribbons, skateboards and punk music. Last November, Hannah had just a few thousand subscribers. This week, she moves up 3 spots on the Top 200 chart to #190 by adding 4812 new subs last week, for a total of 87,362! Click HERE to see the chart of MissHannahMinx's Subscriber History for the last 10 weeks.

You are about to notice, as you see the video thumbnails below, that Hannah uses a downward camera angle and low cut shirts to show off her cleavage. This has led some to contend that she is just a "big chested chick" who likes to "show her boobs". But MissHannahMinx is much more than that. Get past the YouTube sex stereotype and give Hannah a chance. Watch the videos and see if you don't find her to be pleasant and entertaining!

But first, The News!


Thanks to everyone who regularly visits our YouTube Top 100 Weekly Chart! Now we expanded it into a Top 200 Chart. You'll be able to see who fell off the bottom of the Top 100 and who is climbing their way up to soon debut on the Top 100. Check it out; click the pic.

This week's Featured Video on the Top 100 Weekly Chart is a cover of Miranda Lambert's song "White Liar" by bubbly and talented singer Christina Amato. She is 17, lives in Las Vegas and has 67 excellent singing videos that have earned her 765 Subscribers. Follow her on Twitter and visit her MySpace page. Christina also does an amazing cover of "Hallelujah" that you really must watch, it's beautiful!

This amazingly beautiful and sexy young women studied in Japan but is now back in America. Most of the videos were made while she was studying in Japan. She is adorable and so fun to watch!!! Check below to see what I mean as I review her 4 latest videos.



Ok, so there are lots of comments on her videos about why she uses the word "Minxy". In this video, she explains it in an upbeat and adorable way while flaunting her Extreme Sex Appeal to both sexes. She looks amazing and sexy while still keeping a classy look about herself. I adore her look.

As a large chested plus size model I see how men look at us and to be honest its not always wanted. If you wear a low cut shirt, you are looking to be sexy but still respected. The comments I have read on her pages are disgusting and crude and yet she does Not delete them. They say she is looking for attention but I think she is so comfortable with herself that she does not care who reads the bad comments because she knows she is a strong and beautiful women and I for one say GO FOR IT GIRL!!!





Ahhh, now were you the Minxy Akuma (Devil) or the Minxy Tenshi (Angel) when you made a hard choice today? What a great video! She teaches you a bit of Japanese with humor and of course with her sexy adorable self. Let's see... I would say I was on my Minxy Akuma's side today as I had some yummy white chocolate and shhhhh don't tell anyone because I am on a diet :0)





LOL, well now who is Wrap cat? He is an adorable cat who is wrapped for some reason in bandages. He also has a little sister named boot! Ok this reminds me of a darker Hello kitty but I just love him so much I am thinking of asking her how can I get one for myself! But as she said he can be hard to be around as he is kind of bossy :0). Well really now what stuffed black cat isn't bossy???

I am going to be her newest subscriber because this girl just rocksss. Need something to make you smile? Watch these videos. It also does not hurt that the 21 year old young women is VERY easy on the eyes.





Now for the last video. I see she must love that low cut tank top because in 90% of her videos she has it on! Hehe, thats just a side note, I happen to love the shirt - its sexy and classy and well hey I own one almost like it :)

I can't say I understand what this video was about but I will say it kept me watching till the end, LOL... What an interesting little minx this girl is, a modern day Elvira. I love the fact she is not just sitting there talking but she uses effects and greenscreening to spice up her videos. I can honestly say I can't wait to see what she comes up with next!!

Hello YouTubers!

This post is directed to the parents out there, or people with young brothers or sisters. We all love YouTube, but there are many videos there that are not appropriate for young children. I have written about this in my two popular articles:

Sex on YouTube - A Parent's Guide

Sex and Porn on YouTube - A Guide For Parents

I just read this news release today which starts with the headline:

Children use Web to watch videos, look up "sex"

It talks about a study of the top 100 search terms used by youngsters to find items online. As YouTube fans like us might expect, YouTube was the top search term! The ninth most popular search term was "Fred" - the most subscribed YouTuber - as we all know by looking at the Top 100 Weekly Chart.

But the words "sex" and "porn" were also it the top 10, at number four and six respectively. The news article says:

California-based Symantec's Internet safety advocate Marian Merritt said the list showed that parents needed to be aware what their children were doing online.

"It also helps identify "teachable moments" when parents should be talking with their kids about appropriate online behavior and other issues in their kids' online lives," she said in a statement

If you are a parent or a concerned older brother or sister, you may want to read my two articles so that you are educated about the situation. Make your own decisions, based on your research, about what level of YouTube access you want to provide to your children.

Last year I wrote an article about Sex on YouTube to warn parents about how easily their children could stumble upon things on the popular video sharing site that they probably wouldn't want them to see. This article continues to be one of the most popular articles on the LookingForClues article collection website. Here is an urgent update to warn everyone about the kinds of things that can be found on YouTube today, based on news reports that came out this Memorial Day weekend.

YouTube is the most popular and largest video sharing website, and Google, the site's owner, does a very good job of keeping the site free from porn. But it's not perfect. With over 20 hours of video uploaded to YouTube every minute, it is impossible to screen it all for objectionable content. There is a certain amount of automatic screening based on video titles, descriptions and tags. But many videos make it though this filter. So YouTube relies on its members to flag unacceptable videos. But this process of member flagging and manual review by YouTube employees takes time.

Over the last few days, there have been several news reports about a "Porn Hack" attack carried out against YouTube. A group called 4Chan which runs an image-sharing message board uploaded what may number in the thousands of videos that begin as harmless music videos which soon cut to scenes of nudity and group sex. The titles, descriptions and tags indicate that the videos are of popular recording artists such as Hannah Montana and the Jonas Brothers. If a visitor clicks on one of these videos, they see the beginning of a music video by one of these musicians who are popular with young people. Soon the content changes to adults participating in group sex acts, according to the BBC.

YouTube is aware of the problem but is only able to address it through their flagging system. It may take days or even weeks to remove all of the offending material. Let this be a reminder to parents that YouTube does contain some material that is not suitable for children!

For more information, see this news story.

As I have stated, YouTube generally does a good job of keeping porn off it's site. But there are a lot of videos which are nearly porn and are used to advertise for sex sites of all kinds. If a person searches YouTube using keywords such as kinky, porn, sex, and girl, they may encounter comments under the resulting videos which contain "Malspam." Malspam is malicious spam which consists of a link to a website that attempts to infect the visitor's computer with viruses. It has been reported that over 30,000 videos on YouTube have links to these kinds of sites in their comments! Do not download any programs from links on YouTube. You may end up with an infected computer.

Another type of download appears to be a real anti-vrus program. One of the most common malspam links on YouTube points to a site where visitors are advised to download a program called PrivacyCenter (read more about it, here). This is a fake anti-virus program that tells the user that they have many viruses on their computer even if they have no viruses. It then tells the user the problems will be fixed if they buy the premium version of the application. Do NOT download this fake program; all it gets rid of is your money!

For more information, see this new story.

Beware of any links you may encounter in the comments to any video. And be sure to warn your children not to go to any websites mentioned in comments on YouTube. Enjoy watching the many interesting and entertaining videos on YouTube (like the ones we talk about on this blog) but be careful if you let your children go on this popular website. You never know what they may end up watching!

Parents, please read these two articles that I recently wrote for the LookingForClues website. One is titled "Prescription Drug Abuse - A Parent's Guide" and the other is titled "Sex on YouTube - A Parent's Guide." They are both short but informative articles and contain information that you need to know!

Here are the article descriptions from the LookingForClues website:


Danger!
Have you talked to your kids about the dangers of Prescription Drug Abuse? Teen drug use is down for most drugs, but Prescription Drug Abuse is on the rise. Heath Ledger just died from an overdose of Prescription Drugs. Make sure your child knows the dangers of Prescription Drugs. Read our article titled Prescription Drug Abuse - A Parent's Guide to learn the facts, then speak to your kids about this important topic!

Beware of This!
Do your kids watch videos on YouTube? As a parent, you should know that YouTube is more than just clips of funny cats and laughing babies. There are many things on YouTube that your children should not see. Read our article titled Sex On YouTube - A Parent's Guide and learn about the seamy side of YouTube from a man who has been writing about YouTube for almost two years.

There are sex videos on YouTube. Not the kind you might have come across in the early days of the service. There was a time when members could upload porn and find that it would last several days before being discovered and removed by employees screening for Terms Of Use violations. (Along with copyright violations, you can't post "pornography, obscene or defamatory material" on YouTube.) YouTube has since tightened its surveillance of recently uploaded videos and you just don't see those kinds of flicks on YouTube anymore.

The sex videos I'm talking about are videos that talk maturely about sex. We'll have a look and listen to three videos - two that express their author's views on sex, and one about sex in a Phoenix classroom. The videos start discussions that continue in the comments sections. Watch, then add YOUR comments!




But first, the News. Is there anything new happening on YouTube? Maybe not. At least there's not much movement among the top subscribed members. The Top 16 positions remained exactly the same as last week. The biggest mover in the entire Top 100 chart was Mememolly's 8-spot advance to the number 87 position. When are some new talents going to shake up the Top 100?

I'd like to thank stealurface1976 (Jesse Stutsman) for mentioning me in his Friends Tribute video. I was mentioned in the exact middle of the film, so the video's icon is MY channel icon! Thanks, my friend! Here is that video... (F word warning)



Filthywhore on hands and slutty mcpreteens.

Jacci talks very frankly about "virginity and whores." She thinks that young people should not jump into sexual relations. She goes on to talk about why she doesn't "sleep around" and ends by stating her strong objections to abortion. The discussion continues in the comments; there are over 130 so far. For those of you who have never heard of Jacci before, and wonder about her username, here's a quote from her in this video's comments: "I've explained my user name at least 200 times on here. I used to have a user name on aol that was PurrBox.. but no one thought I was a cat." For more about FW, read these posts.

If you can't see the video above, watch it on YouTube.


Virginity Part 1

Kicesie has been making videos that she describes as "Advanced Sex Ed for today's people." In the first vid of this two part series, she states that she respects virgins who are waiting for the right time to have sex. She goes on to talk about the "True Love Waits" campaign and repeats again that it's not uncool to wait to have sex. There's been over 70 comments so far, and over 140 on Part 2; be sure to add yours!

If you can't see the video above, watch it on YouTube.

WFHS Hummanities Class

What's going on in Phoenix? Have you seen the TV coverage or read the news about the Williams Field High School teacher who was suspended for performing a "racy" cheer routine in front of her class? The teacher was filmed and the video appeared on the 21superman2169 YouTube channel last week. (No one knows who owns this channel but their YouTube background photo is from a Photobucket account under the name of sad_girl2151). Apparently it was Spirit week and the teacher, also the cheerleading coach, showed a new cheer to her class. Some students responded to the mildly sexy routine with whistles and giggles. Have a look at the video and decide if you think the teach was wrong or not!

If you can't see the video above, watch it on YouTube.
