    Nowadays, with internet access everywhere and with huge sites such as YouTube, anyone, with a talent or not can become a celebrity. There are many well known cases where actually simple users of YouTube have uploaded their randoms videos and those videos have gone viral and have attracted millions of views. Due to its nature, YouTube has more than 100 million visitors per day and building a fan base is simple enough. Let us see some of the YouTube celebrities who know have contracts with the biggest media corporations in the United States:

    Amanda Baggs
    [​IMG]

    January 2007 she published a video on YouTube describing her experience as an autistic person entitled In My Language which became the subject of several articles on CNN She also guest-blogged about her video on Anderson Cooper’s blog and answered questions from the audience via email.

    Amber Lee Ettinger (aka Obama Girl)
    [​IMG]

    Ettinger appeared in the “I Got a Crush… on Obama” viral video, which was posted by Barely Political to YouTube in June 2007. Later, she appeared in a new video called “Hillary! Stop the attacks! Love, Obama Girl” released on March 25, 2008. On May 7, 2008, Barely Political posted a YouTube video with Ettinger and former Democratic and Libertarian Party presidential candidate Mike Gravel, entitled “Mike Gravel Lobbies for the Obama Girl Vote.” In the video, Gravel tries to persuade her to switch her support from Obama to him. Her response near the end of the video is, “I’ll think about it.”

    In late September 2008 Ettinger made a YouTube video with Independent candidate Ralph Nader in which he argues that he should be included in the debates. The video was a spoof of conventional sit-coms and was called “The Obama Girl and Ralph Nader Show.” Also featuring former Governor of Minnesota Jesse Ventura, the video followed what would happen if Obama Girl and Ralph Nader shared an office.

    Marina Orlova
    [​IMG]

    At first glance, if you see her pictures on Google Images, you bet she is a veteran pornstar but after reading a bit more of her, she uses that style for her own success. She has her personal website HotForWords.com and her slogan is “Intelligence is sexy”. Moscow Times editorial had written

    “Marina exploits her blonde-bombshell looks to the maximum: She appears in her two-minute clips scantily clad, pouting and making doe eyes. This is surely the main factor in her success. However, while the number of scantily clad girls on the Internet is limitless, not all of them put so much intellectual effort into their success”

    So whats next? Porn acting career ?

    Conclusion

    Well, if you are reading this you already wished you were a girl (for the boys) and wished you were pretty (for the rest of the girls). In Marina’s case, she has build a strong fans base and whenever she releases a new product, either an e-book or something else, many guys pull out their credit cards and purchase everything related to HotForWords

    If Marina is reading this, I would highly suggest you to put some adult affiliate links on your videos … I’m sure you are going to have a 1:5 conversion rate

    yet, when trying to market a website via youtube, you appear spammy and often wont get any attention. more often than not, if you try to become youtube famous, you will fail.

    You have to be very, very unique. Think outside the box. If you fail - go back to the drawing board and redo somethings.
