And why I put both of those together?

I've seen this at the gym.

- (Rachel) Yeah. That makes us like a really cute couple.
- (quietly) Oh my gosh.
That last one was so true.
- I know people in almost every one of those relationships.
- Same.
- I wouldn't watch it again.
- It was kinda funny but... neh.
- That was good. I liked her videos.
- They're enjoyable, but I don't know who she is.
♪ (punk rock music) ♪
- (Finebros) So do you know what channel
the videos we just showed you were from? - No.
- No idea.
- No, I have no idea. She said her name was Rachel.
- I don't. - No.
- But I've seen some of the princess ones.
- Rclbeauty101.
She always shows up on the Explore page on Instagram for me,
'cause I follow some other YouTubers
that she's done collabs with.
- (Finebros) These videos were from
the YouTube star Rachel Levin, on her channel Rclbeauty101.
- Oh, I've heard of her!
- No, I've never heard of her.
- I've never heard of her. She looks really familiar though.
- (Finebros) Well, before we dive in, can you talk about
what you liked or didn't like about her content?
- I feel like her content was
basic vlogger beauty YouTuber.
- They were kind of amusing, but I wouldn't re-watch them.
- I liked her. It was cool.
The relationships one was very spot-on.
- She kinda like pinpoints the modern stereotypes
and really relatable situations, like between all the couples.
- It seemed real down to Earth. It was too over-edited.
Kind of reminded me of nigahiga.
- I really liked how genuine it all felt.
She was just like she wrote some sketches with some friends.
It was like, "Hey, we should film this."
And that's such a cool thing to see online nowadays.
- (Finebros) Well, Rachel has one of the most
popular channels on YouTube.
She went from 2 million subscribers
to 8 million subscribers in a single year.
- Wow. That's impressive.
- Oh my.
How does she have 8 million subscribers?
- (Finebros) And she now has over 1 billion views.
- Wow. - Well, dang.
- I've never heard of her. This is weird.
- So many people, so many channels
that you just don't always have the opportunity to see everyone.
But she is funny, and it's a shame I've never heard of her.
- YouTube has become such a huge thing.
Like, everybody in the world knows about YouTube
and has their own subsect of YouTube
that there can be people that are HUGE in their own category.
But she's still this hugely popular person in the community
that I'm a part of, just a different part of it.
- (Finebros) The channel started five years ago
and was primarily standard beauty vlogging.
But it's turned into a lot more than that now,
with sketches and more scripted content.
What do you think about that? - I like it. I think it's cool.
Diversity on the channel is good.
- I think it's cool that she started off with beauty
and now has moved into skits.
Too much of one thing is not good.
- If her audience is enjoying her videos,
it's good for her to branch out, I guess,
and try different things.
- That's kind of like the essence of YouTube.
It starts out with your little niche, and you grow.
And then as you grow more followers,
then you can just branch out and be like,
"Hey guys, I'm just gonna try something a little new here."
- If you want to diversify your channel
and you want to do a ton of other things,
then I think it's good, and you should do that.
But at the same time, it's like,
those people subscribe to your channel for that one thing,
so you might just want to stick with that.
- I think it's good to expand.
Every channel has to grow but keep the core of what you do.
She still does beauty vlogs.
But she's expanded to other stuff,
to reach out to other kinds of people.
- (Finebros) So the first video we showed you
was part of her Disney Princess video series.
And that video got over 50 million views
in the first month of its release. - That's crazy!
- 50 million views?
My mind is blown.
- I go on YouTube, I promise.
How have I not seen this?
- (Finebros) Why do you think that video went so viral?
- There were girls... in bathing suits.
I don't know.
- I don't know!
I just don't find it very good.
- Well, everybody likes Disney.
- A lot of the references made sense,
and some of them were funny, some of them were relatable.
- Seeing them being
so, like, sassy and shady to each other.
It's just relatable and something that you're like,
"That would happen."
- (Finebros) The second ideo we showed you
was part of her 10 Different Types series.
What'd you think of that one?
- That one wasn't... as bad.
- That was definitely better than the Disney Princess one.
I found kind of relatable.
- I thought it was funny. I thought it was really relatable.
- I think they're really funny.
You can kinda relate to them also like,
"Oh, well, I will not do that, 'cause that looks so annoying.
So I'm just not gonna be that person."
- Kinda like the YouTube version of a Tag Yourself meme,
where you can just be like, "Oh, I'm the fitness relationship."
- When you can click into it and you relate to it so well,
you will find connections between you and the content creator.
- (Finebros) Rachel was asked
where she sees her channel in five years.
And she mentioned, hoping that it's still growing
and that she has even better production value.
Where do you see channels like hers going in the future?
- I can't really see
her doing much else.
- Could be even bigger.
Like, she has 8 million subscribers now.
It could be 50 or 100 million.
- I think if she keeps doing
different sketches and stuff, I think that's how she'll grow.
- I think she'll still be in beauty,
but she might expand to even more sketch comedy
or more of these types of straightforward vlogs
instead of maybe beauty tutorials.
- I see nothing but going up.
I see nothing but the entire YouTube community growing
and becoming bigger.
And she's a part of that and obviously a very big part of that.
So I don't see why she wouldn't grow and change with it.
