YouTube's Highest-Paid Stars of 2020 Revealed & The Top Star Is Just Nine-Years-Old

Forbes has unveiled the list of the highest-paid YouTube stars from 2020!

One trend that you might notice among the top-earning stars of the year is that most of them cater to a young audience. A recent study showed that 77% of internet users in the U.S. who are between the ages of 15 and 25 are active YouTube viewers.

All earnings estimates are from June 1, 2019 through June 1, 2020. These numbers are pretax and before agents, managers, and lawyers’ fees are deducted.
