Highest income on Youtube ? As the kids have shown, the videos are just the start. Ryan now has a line of branded toys, clothing and home goods sold at Target, Walmart and Amazon, a spinoff television show on Nickelodeon and a deal with Hulu to repackage his videos. Nastya, who gets six-figure checks from sponsor brands including Dannon and Legoland, will be launching a line of toys and mobile game, and publishing a book next year. Last year, she moved with her parents from Krasnodar, Russia, and now lives in Boca Raton, Florida. Videos with children in them average almost three times as many views as other types of videos from high-subscriber channels, according to a Pew Research Center study done this year. Another Pew study revealed that 81% of parents with children 11 or younger let their kids watch YouTube.
Critics had high expectations of Hustlers before it came out, and yet somehow, it still managed to exceed the hype. For weeks after its release fans and critics called for Jennifer Lopez to have her Oscar moment, making this one of the most praised comedies of 2019. Based on the true New York Magazine story about strippers who drugged and conned Wall Street scumbags out of thousands of dollars, the Constance Wu-led film is a darkly comedic look at the 2008 economic recession and an astute observation on class differences in 2019. Also, Lili Reinhart’s ability to vomit on command is award-worthy all on its own.
Bathtub Baby Cousins: As hard as it may be to believe, this completely silly video about “tooting” in the tub has received more than 265 million hits since it was uploaded. It was created by Flowgo, a group that specializes in “Cute Toons, Funny Videos, and Big Smiles.” It features an animated bathtub with two babies in it; the babies faces are real photographs of infants, and they’re “singing” along with a jingle about passing gas in a bathtub.

Best clip for a song in 2019 ? One of the year’s warmest success stories: when Georgia released Started Out, the first single from her second album for indie Domino, at the end of 2018, it became a surprise Radio 1 hit. So did its follow-up, About Work the Dancefloor, prompting the label to push her album to 2020 to give the singles time to breathe. AWtD is a fine teaser for a record that is worth the wait, showing off Georgia’s newfound focus on songcraft and the depth of her references as a producer (the satisfyingly meaningless title is her tribute to the robotic proclamations of Detroit techno forefathers Cybotron). Lacing the juddering pulse of adrenaline with her vulnerable vocal delivery, AWtD puts Georgia in the big, Robyn-shaped pop leagues.
