No. 1 - zoella280390 (aka. Zoe Sugg)

If you know who Zoella (what she is commonly known as) is, then you'll understand why it's a no brainer why she's at the top of my list. Zoe suffers from anxiety and panic attacks, which she has stated in many of her videos. She talks about her life struggles in a way that provides information for people who suffer from anxiety and panic attacks and how they are not alone. I think its amazing how she can talk about something so personal which will be able to help others in some way. She has expanded further from her channel and blog (which she ran way before she started YouTube) and recently launched a beauty brand called Zoella Beauty and soon to be releasing a novel titled Girl Online.

It seems like YouTube is all fun, happy and amazing, it is really, but it does have its moments of wrongdoing. Recently YouTube has come under fire after some allegations have come forward from victims who claim some known figures on YouTube have committed some unimaginable attacks. If you are fully clued up on YouTube you will know full well what I am on about. I interviewed a fellow YouTube viewer and brought up the subject of these allegations. In their response to the question, they said 'Recently there have been many allegations about YouTuber's using their fame/power to manipulate young viewers into doing things that they wouldn't consent to normally but since the supposed person is a 'YouTuber', they feel like they have to'.

No. 3 - psychosoprano (aka. Colleen Ballinger)

Colleen is an American YouTuber, comedian, actress and singer. She is best known for her character online, Miranda Sings. Donning the quirky clothes and bright red lipstick, she has now taken the character worldwide, performing in a wide number of different countries. Why she's my number three, I'll let you know now. On her psychosoprano channel, she simply comes across as a truly genuine person. She shows off a carefree attitude, not in a snobby way, but in a way that is relatable . With her frequent burping and funny antics with her family, fiance and friends, why wouldn't you love her? You'd have to have a good understanding of her comedic side to fully understand her and her Miranda character, if you've got that covered then there's no reason to not like her.

No. 2 - Sprinkleofglitter (aka. Louise Pentland)

If you don't already know, Louise and Zoe are best friends so it's again a no brainer that she is my number two in my top three favourite female YouTuber's. Louise, same as Zoe, started with a blog and then expanded into a YouTube channel. She's a mother to a gorgeous little girl called Darcy and is like a mother to her millions of subscribers really by sharing advice and tips to help people, which really do help as I myself have taken some of them on board and they have really helped.
