Eh, celebrity is, to some degree, relative. If you don't watch Marvel movies or action movies, you're not going to know who Chris Hemsworth is. If you're not familiar with Afrobeats, are you going to know who Wizkid and Tems are? Same goes to anyone in any community/academia/activists/politics/the arts and so on. If you regularly visited buzzfeed usa during the 2012-2018 or something to that effect, you'd know who she was. Obviously, she's not walking around here getting mobbed like Ariana Grande, but celebrity is celebrity.

I've seen countless secrets here with people I have no clue about; it's the community you find yourself in.

I did regularly visit Buzzfeed and I've got no idea who she is.

Not everyone with big follower accounts on youtube is a celebrity-- the thing about Chris Hemsworth is, if you've never seen one of his movies, you've seen trailers for them, or you've seen him on the cover of People, or he's been a guest you didn't care about on the chat show you watch, or there were pictures of him at a red carpet on your feed because you don't watch Marvel movies but your sister does. There are a lot of actors/musicians I don't care about the work of, and might not know the names of, or be able to match name to face of, but I have a vague awareness of them.

But youtubers whose content doesn't match what I normally watch? Unless they hav a marketing deal that puts their names on shelves in Target, or they get a guest spot on a cooking show, they're not on that radar at the same level of, like... a Chalamet or a Doja Cat, because those people are actual celebrities.

And the youtubers I watch? Are also generally not celebrities, even if they have high follower counts. There's a breakthrough to the mainstream that a lot don't get even if they're successful on youtube, just like a lot of writers can have comfortable levels of success while never becoming James Patterson-- a lot of genre writers just aren't familiar names outside of their little spheres, and they work just as hard at their craft and have their own devotees, but the mainstream recognition isn't there, and that's what makes a celebrity.

Clearly, the solution here is putting Youtubers on the cover of People and on chat shows.

(Actually I think this will happen eventually; it's clearly starting to happen on the lower, more junky parts of the media and entertainment industry)

DA

Which I sincerely hope they stop immediately. Luke Paul(?) seriously needs to get his attention-whoring dick right off all'a my feeds, effective pretty much since he was born FFS. Fuck that guy and his racist wanna-be ass.

Who the fuck is Doja Cat? Seriously. I have never heard of them. I have, however, heard of Safiya, even though I don't watch her content.

Celebrity is definitely relative.

[(Anonymous)]

Agreed. I don't watch Safiya's vid but I have heard of her and know the type of content she makes.

Doja Cat. I wouldn't have even known that was a person except for the fact that you referred to them as a celebrity.
