I didn’t receive any YouTube vlogger recommendations from you all, but that probably means you want to hear more about vloggers that I like!

So here are six more YouTubers that I follow now and again:

Natalie (communitychannel)

Who?

She’s a funny gal from Sydney who loves Lamingtons. Her vlogs are a mix of talking to the camera and acting out awkward scenes that have or haven’t actually happened.

Fun Fact

She has a “porno music/comment time” at the end of every video where she interacts with her supporters by responding to their comments.

Justine (iJustine)

Does she like Apple?

Yes she does! Obsessed, actually.

Besides that, Justine is high-energy and loves making music videos and parodies; she is an individual who I picture would never be at a loss for words.

Fun Fact

She’s helping vloggers hone their skills through her recently launched Vlog University, which provides viewers with a vlogging challenge each week (or whenever she posts an update).

Her first “homework assignment” was to vlog about coloring.

Philip (PhilipDeFranco)

What about him?

Philip loves to talk–who wouldn’t when they have a vlog. His humor is more blunt than other vloggers I follow, but I appreciate him nonetheless.

Fun Fact

He’s using his old channel, sxephil – Sexy Phil, get it? – to host The Philip DeFranco Show. Videos about “things that matter” to him are released Monday-Thursday at 5PM ET.

Christine (HappySlip)

Happy Slip?

It’s how her mother pronounces half-slip, given her Filipino accent.

Christine is a Filipina American comedian from Virginia who used to be a SAG/AFTRA actress in New York City.

She vlogs about funny situations and conversations involving her family members; she also posts a few song covers on her personal channel.

Fun Fact

Christine vlogged about Kodak’s Print & Prosper calculator, which helps consumers compare printing costs between Kodak printers and their average competitor.

Timothy aka Traphik (theTimothyDeLaGhetto)

Is he actually ghetto?

Yes, and he’s proud of it. His channel is full of videos about random topics formatted in classic vlog fashion–with a handheld camera and minimal post-processing.

Fun Fact

He’s also a rapper, hence the name Traphik. You can view his collaborations and covers on his other channel.

Ryan (nigahiga)

Don’t ask about the username; I’d have no clue.

Ryan is a Japanese American from Hilo, Hawaii. This guy is super funny. He loves producing skits and parodies of mainstream and YouTube culture, often with his friends involved.

One of my favorites is his parody of makeup gurus: “Today I’m going to be teaching you: HOW TO BE MAKEUP.

Fun Fact

Carl’s Jr. teamed up with Ryan to promote their “$6 Portobello Mushroom Burger!” His video has amassed over 7.7 million views and over 40,000 comments.

Those are all the vloggers I have for you. Comments? Questions? I’m always open to them.
