YouTubers to see if you know their channels.
- Uh-oh. (laughs) I'm in trouble!
- This is gonna go terrible.
- I don't watch YouTube a lot. I'm sorry.
- I think I might have a good chance 'cause of my kids.
- Good luck to us all.

He talks about... really lazy Halloween costumes.

- (Finebros) So that is Ryan Higa, also known as Nigahiga.
He makes comedy sketches and is currently one of the top five
most subscribed channels in the world. - Wow.
On one of those?
- I was okay. I'm on the right track.
- I guess he must be funny.
- He's somebody I should definitely look up.
I bet I would love what he does.
♪ (quirky interlude) ♪
- (Finebros) How about this guy? Do you know him?
- No.
- Wow, look at the hair. (laughs)
- He looks intelligent! (giggles)
- Is he the "pie" one? No-- no, it's not, right?
- I think I've seen him on a billboard recently.
- Don't know his name.
It's the one that my daughter loves.
- He has a new book out and it's called Binge.
Taylor... is that even right?

My daughter, she showed me his videos and he's such a sweetheart.

who is a strong advocate in the LGBTQ community
and is gay himself. - Okay.

for The Trevor Project, an organization that provides
crisis intervention for LGBTQ youth. - Wow, what a guy, man.
He's using social media for a really good cause.
- I think that's really good because he has the courage to help others.
- Any time you can use any of your influence
to raise money to donate, I think,
that not only is it going to a good cause,
but, you know, you're filling up your karma bank.
♪ (quirky interlude) ♪
- (Finebros) Okay, onto the next. Do you know who this YouTuber is?
- Uh, no.
- I don't know this one.
But it says "My Everyday Makeup Routine,"
so I don't think I would be big on watching this.

I know she has her own makeup line.

And I've seen her on his videos.
- (Finebros) She gives tips on style, beauty, and makeup.
Tutorials like hers are some of the most popular content on YouTube.
- Oh, wow. I'm gonna go watch her.
- I would worry, eventually, for my daughter
if she was too stuck on these and trying to look
like everybody in these videos and worrying that she's not.
- In the beginning, when us girls first start putting on makeup
or doing fashion, sometimes we look crazy.
So I think this would help out.
It would've helped out for my age.
- My daughter watches all of these channels and, honestly,
my daughter looks fabulous.
If I taught her how to put on makeup, she would look like a crazy drag queen.
