Internet celebrities

Do you follow any internet celebrities?

I follow:

Jontron- a crazy guy who does "reviews(?)" of various things, mostly video games
Peanut Butter Gamer- does reviews of mostly unusual video games
Brutalmoose- mostly the same as PBG
The Angry Video Game Nerd- reviews really, really bad video games
Linkara- reviews bad comic books
The Nostalgia Critic- reviews mostly bad movies, but also other things such as TV shows and cartoons
The Blockbuster Buster- kind of a lesser Nostalgia Critic, but his specialty is how adaptations remain true to the source material

If they count:

chuggaaconroy- mostly a guy who does casual playthroughs of video games
Did You Know Gaming- video game trivia
He is an Evil Genius- reviewer of weird video games
Bum Reviews- the Nostalgia Critic as a hyperactive, drug-addicted homeless man attempting to review movies
Nostalgia Chick- once in awhile; a movie reviewer sometimes giving a female perspective

Have also encountered:

Brentalfloss- I enjoy his video game music with lyrics

Rebecca Watson, but saying why would venture dangerously close to our policies on politics and religion. :) I sponsor her on Patreon.
 
I'm not sure what qualifies as an internet celebrity. I read certain webcomics, the creators of some of which I can name, but I don't interact with them. If I start following a person it's because I interact with them.
 
PewDiePie. I know that a lot of people find him to be annoying and/or childish, but I genuinely enjoy his brand of humor. His videos help me get through bad days.
 
I don't know if they count as 'celebrities', but they all have a bit of a following. I watch a lot more than these guys, but I think they're the most popular out of folks I follow.

For game streaming on Twitch; I watch Gopher, who is fairly popular in the modding community. Charming older middle aged guy, with an interesting British accent and a voice for radio. Fun to watch while keeping the shows PG-13.

On YT; I watch Adam Plaze at YourMovieSucks, which is a movie review channel. I don't always agree with him, but I find he has really good taste in movies and can accurately communicate why a movie works or doesn't work. He's also friggin' hilarious.
- Dom Mazzetti at BroScience, which is fitness community satire.
- Chef John at FoodWishes, which is exactly what it sounds like. What I like about his channel above others is that he constantly focuses on the food. You never see him, except for a reflection, in the videos. When you follow his recipes, he encourages you to cook and have fun, opposed to just 'following step-by-step'.
 
Brady Haran's Numberphile and Periodic Videos
Tom Scott
The Fine Bros, especially when the teens get to react.
 
Linus...I started watching his aspergers videos about 5 years ago.
They are funny & informative.

Ben Sworn aka the English Ambassador, also for the aspie videos.
The first one I saw him do, he was quite young. Doing a 'Rant' about how even
if a person were an aspie (which he is) that person can be successful.

I started watching these guys this summer.

UhOhBro...I just starting watching his videos in September this year.
I am not putting a link. He has many serious & humorous ANTI-CUTTING
videos. Also other humor and other serious topics. aka OnisionSpeaks.
 
An update:

Chuggaaconroy- YouTuber who does Let's Plays of video games in a casual and sometimes funny way.
That Guy With the Glasses- various humorous reviewers
Angry Video Game Nerd- reviews bad video games
Did You Know Gaming- video game trivia
Normal Boots- various humorous video game reviewers
Cinemasins- points out everything "wrong" with various movies, marking each one as a "sin", and provides a "sentence" at the end of each review
