Big $$ to YouTube Stars

What the Buck? Indeed. Could Michael Buckley really have earned over $100k in a year from YouTube videos. . .and then gets a development deal from HBO?

YouTube star Lisa Donovan or "LisaNova" truly is talented. Even more than Tina Fey, she's made a career out of playing Sarah Palin, including in the famous McCain/Palin rap.

Cory Williams
and his smpFilms hit the bigtime with "Hey Little Sparta" (better known as "The Mean Kitty Song", 33 million views!). He claims to be earning over $200k per year, partly from (ugh!) product placements within his videos.

PhillyD is my 13-year-old daughter's favorite YouTube star, with current events, tech and celeb news.

Become a YouTube Star and appear in a hugely popular music video with Weezer or the earlier one from Barenaked Ladies.

"Where the hell is Matt?"
became so popular, the guy has long had his travels paid by corporate sponsors.
