He is the biggest Youtuber and he is famous for changing the Youtube platform with his docu-series and won creator of the year at The Streamys last year and NO, he DID NOT molest his cat, that was a JOKE he made on a podcast.
This series as as US american as it gets. The importance of proms is striking...
I'm American and I didn't go to my senior prom.

I got sick of seeing photos of perfectly fine looking young people, while under the article’s supposed theme of them being “awkward”. If you’re going to come up with a theme, stick to the damned thing. This is a problem with many of these lists.
As usual I've never heard of at least half of these people. I'm beginning to think maybe I'm the only non celebrity left in America. Which would, of course, make me a ..........celebrity .
