Caspar Lee- Everything you need to know!!!
Caspar Richard
George Lee is a very well known Vlogger on YouTube. Caspar is from South Africa
and now lives in London. He lived with another well-known comic Vlogger who
goes by the name of ThatcherJoe, however with their respective busy schedules
they have decided to part ways, as they will be spending more time on the road
together than in London. Caspar and Joe
Snugg are also the stars of: Joe and Casper in the Road. This is a movie that
includes Casper and Joe traveling Europe for couple of weeks, while working to
pay for their accommodation, food and transport. As you can probably guess, it
is a very eventful movie that goes wrong for the troublesome two on numerous
occasions.
Caspar was born on
the 24th of April 1994, making him 22. At the age of 22 Casper has
over 7 million subscribers across his two channels and is worth upto $2million.
This is all from making funny videos mainly from his bedroom. However, I do not
want to take anything away from the achievement because it is an incredible
accomplishment at the age of 22. During Caspar’s time on YouTube he has done
many collaborations with different YouTubers and celebrities. For example:
Caspar has worked with Kevin Hart, Chloë Grace Moretz, Selena Gomez, and
many more.
Caspar has created a massive fan base because of he
comic videos he posts and his hilarious pranks that he pulls on ThatcherJoe.
Caspar has appeared on many different red carpets but most notably, he appeared
on the SpongeBob Movie: Sponge out of the Water because he was playing the
voice of the seagull in the film.

Caspar Lee gets full marks for his vlogging skills as
he has demonstrated a real desire to produce good quality videos and goes the
extra mile to entertain his fans. Caspar has worked extremely hard to get to
where he is and I hope he continues to grow on YouTube whilst making the same
standard of amazing videos.

KSI!!!! Everything you need to know about the man, the myth, the legend!!
The man known as KSI and
everything about him!!!
Olajide "JJ" Olatunji (born 19 June
1993) better known as KSI, a
shortened version of his YouTube username KSIOlajidebt (stylized as KSIOlajideBT),
is an English comedian, YouTube personality, rapper, and occasional actor. He
is best known for his YouTube channel, which has, as of 20 April 2016, reached
over 12 million subscribers.
Before his successful channel, KSI had a YouTube
channel (which is still online) called JideJunior, which he created on 24 April
2008. KSI opened his current YouTube account on 24 July 2009, with a video
about the Fifa Video Game franchise. According to his website, YouTubers such
as Weepeler and Hjerpseth inspired him to start his own YouTube career. His
main channel is primarily focused on FIFA, although he plays other games
such as Grand Theft Auto V and other PC-based modifications on his secondary
channel. KSI's family often appeared in his videos, including his younger
brother Deji and his father. His secondary channel, KSIOlajidebtHD, contains
videos of him playing more casual, arcade and horror games in a manner similar
to that of comedic horseman PewDiePie. KSI's videos sometimes feature his
brother Deji Olatunji, better known as Comedy Shorts Gamer.
In February 2013, KSI appeared on the video "KSI VS FIFA // The
Record Slam" made by GWRomg in which he broke the previous world record
for 'the most goals scored against computer' of 110 goals, by scoring 190
goals. As a result, his name appeared in the Guinness World Record Gamer’s
Edition (2013).
KSI branched out into music, mainly as a rapper. Starting out with
fellow YouTuber Randolph, he released "Heskey Time", a rap song about
Emile Heskey, which
was released on Itunes just before Christmas in 2011. The video features Heskey
missing various chances on FIFA. Following the success of "Heskey
Time", he began doing a segment on his channel called "Football Rap
Battles", a video series that follows a similar vein Epic Rap Battles of
Histroy. There, he and Randolph play the characters of famous figures from the
world of football.
On 16 March 2015, KSI announced via his YouTube channel that he was
releasing a book entiltled KSI: I Am A Bellend. The book is entitled KSI:
I Am A Tool in the United States. Publishers describe it as “an all-out
assault on the online universe”. The book includes his history and evolution as
a YouTuber, tips on YouTube, his controversies throughout his career including
his fallout with fellow YouTube personality Gudjon Daniel, and more. The book
was released on 24 September 2015 in the United Kingdom and five days later in
the United States. KSI did a tour supporting the book on 24 September 2015,
ending on 4 October 2015.

Effort: 5/5
Entertainment: 5/5
KSI is one of the most well known Vloggers and video makers on YouTube.
This is down to his witty banter and comic attitude towards life. His videos
are probably one of the most entertaining and funny I have seen on YouTube
which makes it understandable why so many others enjoy them as well.

Zoella!!! Big New about the YouTuber Zoella!
Zoe Elizabeth Sugg (born 28 March 1990)[2] is an English fashion and beauty Vlogger, YouTuber, and author. She is best known by her Youtube username Zoella. Her debut novel, Girl Online, was released in November 2014 and broke the record for highest first-week sales of a first-time novelist since Nielsen Bookscan began compiling such records in 1998.
Sugg is the older sister of Joe Sugg, who is also a vlogger and Internet personality known on YouTube as ThatcherJoe. She grew up in Lacock Wiltshire, where she attended The Corsham School, secondary school and Arts College, and currently lives in Brighton. Sugg is in a relationship with fellow YouTube personality Alfie Deyes, known on YouTube as PointlessBlog.
Sugg was working as an apprentice at an interior designer company when she created her blog, "Zoella", in February 2009. By the end of the year it had a thousand followers and as of September 2015 it has received over 540 million total visits. The fashion, beauty and lifestyle blog expanded into a YouTube channel in 2009, while Sugg was working for British clothing retailer New Look.
In 2013, Sugg was named as one of the National Citizen Service's ambassadors, helping to promote the newly launched youth service. The following year she was named as the first "Digital Ambassador" for Mind, the mental health charity. This highlights the incredible start to Zoella’s career in the Vlogging and Bogging community. However, this isn’t just luck, this is because of hard work and honest videos that have taken her to wear she is today.
Sugg's main channel, Zoella, first named "zoella280390" after her birth date, is mostly fashion, beauty hauls, and "favourites" videos (showing her favourite products of the previous month). Her second channel, MoreZoella, contains mostly vlogs where she shows her viewers what she does in her day. She is a member of the Style Haul Network and is represented by Dominic Smales at Gleam Futures. Sugg also appears alongside many other YouTubers on the channel DailyMix, which is managed by Gleam. Sugg has done many collaborations on her channel Zoella with other YouTubers, including: Louise Pentland, Tanya Burr, Alfie Deyes, Tyler Oakley, Troye Sivan, Grace Helbig, and many others.
Sugg is influential through social media, being mentioned by The Telegraph as one of "Britain's most influential Tweeters" in 2013. As of 2015, Sugg's main YouTube channel has over 10 million subscribers and over 663 million video views, and is the 50th most subscribed channel on the website; her second channel "MoreZoella" has over 3.4 million subscribers and over 290 million video views. She also has over 4 million followers on Twitter and over 7 million on Instagram. In December 2014 Sugg was criticised for filming whilst driving her car. A member of the Metropolitan Police said "She could have killed someone. How can anyone who has their eyes off the road for that amount of time be in complete control of a vehicle?" Sugg's spokesperson stated that "at the time of filming she was in mostly stationary traffic”. This fortunately did not damage her reputation and is still creating the videos we all love to see.
Sugg signed a two-book deal with Penguin Books in 2014. The North American publishing rights were purchased by Atria. Sugg's debut novel, Girl Online, was released on 25 November 2014. The book is aimed at a young adult audience and surrounds a 15-year-old anonymous blogger and what happens when her blog goes viral. While based around similar experiences, Sugg has stated that the book is "in no way autobiographical "The novel achieved "the highest first-week sales for a debut author since records began in 1998," 78,109 copies. As of December 2014 it is also the fastest selling book of the year. Penguin stated that "Sugg did not write Girl Online on her own", stating that she "has worked with an expert editorial team to help her bring to life her characters and experiences in a heartwarming and compelling story”. It has been reported that young-adult novelist Siobhan Curham was a ghostwriter for the novel, although neither Penguin nor Sugg have stated this. Penguin stated that Curham was an "editorial consultant" for the novel. A sequel, Girl Online: Tour, was released on 20 October 2015.
Sugg launched a range of Beauty products under the brand name Zoella Beauty in September 2014. The "bath and beauty" range launch was, according to the Metro, the "biggest beauty launch of the year".
Zoella Review:
Subscribers: 6/5
Quality/ Effort: 4/5
Entertainment Factor: 5/5
Zoella puts a lot of effort into her videos and blogging and sometimes receives undeserved criticism. I believe she has worked extremely hard for what she has in life and should continue to entrainment her ever-expanding group of viewers.

ThatcherJoe- Joe Sugg!!!
Sugg is the younger brother of Zoe Sugg, who is also a
blogger and Internet personality and known on YouTube as Zoella. He
worked as a roof thatcher in addition to his YouTube career. As of 2015, Sugg lived in an apartment in London
with fellow YouTuber Casper Lee. Now, recently in 2016 they parted
ways, due to their busy schedule together during the year; felt it was better
if they had their own spaces to stay in.
Sugg made an un-credited cameo voiceover as
a seagull, along with flat mate Casper Lee, comic Alan Carr and singer Stacey Solomon in the 2015
UK version of the filmThe Spongebob Movie:Sponge out of Water. The
same year he appeared in the film Joe and Casper Hit the Road. This film consisted
of Joe and Casper Lee travelling Europe and working so they could pay for food
and accommodation. This inevitably didn’t workout great for the pair, however
it does make for a hilarious watch for us.
Sugg is author of the graphic novel Username: Evie, published in 2015 by Hodder & Stoughton. The writing is by Matt Wyman, artist Amrit
Birdi, colourist Joaquin Pereyra, and letterer Mindy Lopkin. The story tells of
bullied teenage schoolgirl Evie who dreams of a place she can be herself. Her
terminally ill father creates a virtual reality for her but dies before it is
completed. After he leaves her an app
that allows entry, Evie is transported into a world where everything is
influenced by her personality. This book is still one of the top selling books
in the UK today in 2016.

Factor: 5/5
With Joe
Sugg, or ‘ThatcherJoe’ having over 10 million subscribers over 3 channels, that
definitely means he deserves full marks. However, as we all know Joe likes to
let everyone know he isn’t a Daily Vlogger and therefore deserves a 4/5 because
we all want him to be one. Finally though, Joe does deserve massive credit
for how entertaining his videos really are.
