Top 10 Most Clickbait YouTubers
Clickbaiting thumbnails are OK for a quick eye-grabber sometimes, but here are the top 10 YouTubers who take the privilege too far.
-
PewDiePie
Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg (born October 24, 1989), known online as PewDiePie, is a Swedish YouTube personality, comedian, and commentator. He gained fame for his Let's Play videos and vlogs and was the most subscribed YouTuber for nearly six years, after which he was surpassed by T-Series. As of March... read more
He gains so many subscribers for doing absolutely trash content. Seriously? Why can't he just delete his channel?
He has long fallen from grace. It's not a good thing when 60% of his recent videos are apology videos.
Gets views and subscribers for having trash content. One of the worst YouTubers ever.

RiceGum
Bryan Quang Le, born on November 19, 1996, is better known as RiceGum. He is an American YouTuber and rapper who gained popularity for his diss tracks and online feuds with other YouTube personalities. Since launching his channel, he has gained over ten million subscribers and more than two billion video... read more
Boy, gotta flex, gotta flex, flex, flex. Because when you've got no personality, replace it with a Rolex.
I hate this guy. He is a hypocrite. He is obsessed with money and women, he clickbaits, and he is a jerk.

Morgz
Morgan Hudson, born on August 6, 2001, is better known online as Morgz. He is a British YouTuber recognized for his pranks, challenge videos, sketches, and vlogs. Morgz became known across the YouTube community for his exaggerated content and viral videos like the Pause Challenge, gaining popularity... read more
He is so bad at acting, I can't believe his parents even do the acting too! He even calls his parents names, like calling them idiots. He is totally a clickbait brat!
That's why I don't like him. He is also a very bad liar and cheats on every single one of his girlfriends. Talk about "needy and thirsty for women." He should have gone to jail longer because that man probably hasn't even tasted real food in his entire life and instead gets an Oreo with toothpaste.
His pranks go way too far, and I can't even believe he has subscribers!
At first, I hated him. Outright despised him. But after seeing that one video about him taking a break from YouTube or something, it makes me really happy to see how the loud, screaming, oblivious, and just plain mean person we see on camera isn't how he behaves when he's not recording.
I can see that he put on that mask to net views, subscribers, likes, and money. However, I still have mixed feelings about him because that 100 PS5 thing was so rude.

LeafyIsHere
Calvin Lee Vail (born August 18, 1995), known online as LeafyIsHere or simply Leafy, is an American former YouTuber and Twitch streamer. From 2011 to 2017, and briefly in 2020, he created reaction, drama, and gaming videos but was primarily known for his commentary content.... read more
For someone who doesn't know how to be respectful to others, he definitely uses clickbait.
Popular for all the wrong reasons. Clickbait hero. Red arrow galore. Next!

Kidbehindacamera
Ever since Angry Grandpa died, Michael Green has been posting countless videos with misleading titles and clickbaity thumbnails. He always claims something horrible happened in his life, even though that's close to never happening because he and Bridgette are money-monsters with no respect for their fans. They post the same videos with the same thumbnails and titles for views.
Milking the death of Angry Grandpa through videos claiming someone destroyed Grandpa's dream car. Most thumbnails contain him putting his hand over his mouth. His title-editing shenanigans have become a meme at this point.

T-Series
Super Cassettes Industries Private Limited, operating under the name T-Series, is an Indian music record label and film production company. It was founded by Gulshan Kumar on July 11, 1983. The company is primarily known for its extensive catalog of Bollywood soundtracks and Indi-pop music.... read more
They use sub bots and view bots. It's simple. They suck. I mean, we all know that they used to sell pirated DVDs, right? How can YouTube still allow them to post?
They did kind of clickbait: all their music is pirated.
Their videos are fake and boring. Definitely the definition of clickbait and boringness.

SSSniperwolf

Before her rise to fame, she uploaded Call of Duty Let's Play videos under the username "sexysexysniper... read more
All she does is react to other people's videos, and she gets more views than the original creators. I beg you, please terminate her channel.
Simps are her revenue, and thus she gets more of everything than the real creators.
Stupid clickbait who wants money and views to earn money and be rich.

5-Minute Crafts
You already know this channel is going to be on a list like this. The amount of clickbait they put in their thumbnails and titles is just straight-up embarrassing. Are they not ashamed of themselves for putting more than 10,000,000 children at risk of injury that could result in a trip to the hospital?
Most of the time, their life hacks don't even work, and for the ones that do, literally everybody already knows about them. This channel should have never existed in the first place, along with Troom Troom and Slick Slime Sam.
Fake. They waste materials on hacks that aren't going to work. For YouTube, they make content about themselves doing fake life hacks, which is clickbait. Their content is trash. However, I hope they get terminated off YouTube.

The Mind of Jake Paul was only made with drama in mind, all the while increasing mental illness stigma!
Makes disgusting jokes about pedophilia, then makes apology after apology for even more 'reach.'

Inappropriate thumbnails and titles that are exposed to millions of underage fans on the internet. He clickbaits like his life depends on it, and he always flexes his rented Tesla and his hotel room.
Very inappropriate content, very misleading, and very money-hungry.
He makes a lot of clickbait videos, and I hate them. Please vote for Jake Bait.

Bright Side
BRIGHT SIDE is a Cypriot YouTube channel operated by the media publisher TheSoul Publishing. The channel was launched in 2017 and is known for producing narrated videos on general knowledge, trivia, life hacks, and history. As of 2025, it has over 44 million subscribers and more than 11.5 billion views... read more
This buffoon claims to know "everything" there is to know about everything, but he probably got the information from someone else with an IQ above 25. First off, he misleads his viewers into thinking that he can guess their age by doing this "one" simple task, which always ends up being subscribing to this dude with the notifications on and liking every video, or else the "hack" won't work.
"If you see a rainbow ring around the sun, find shelter quickly."
And it went on to state it's going to rain with thunder. It's not even life-threatening. I've been outside on the beach, in the ocean, when this phenomenon happened.

Joelle JoJo Siwa is an American dancer, singer, actress, and YouTuber. She gained fame through reality television and her strong presence on social media platforms. She is known for appearing on Abby's Ultimate Dance Competition and Dance Moms, and in 2020, she competed as T-Rex on the reality singing... read more
This brat is 19 and she acts like a 5-year-old. She brags about her new stuff, and her voice is way louder than a dolphin. She looks like she's 2. She made videos about herself getting things that she's too old for. I wish she wasn't born.
To be honest, I think Jojo is a spoiled brat who brags about her new stuff. She's sixteen and acts like she's 2.
This kid is 16 and she still plays with Barbie dolls? Who would do that, like a 1-year-old girl? Plus, her voice is louder than a dolphin, and everyone in my family hates her. She should go to hell right now.

He has hosted the Impaulsive podcast since November 2018 and is signed to WWE, where he currently holds the WWE United States Championship. Paul also maintains a large YouTube following... read more
He did terrible things in the past that he can't make excuses for. I know this was a long time ago, but anyone remember the suicide forest?
He tries to get himself killed and is like his brother in many ways.
He self-imploded his career with the video. You know what I am talking about.

Troom Troom
Cringe. They make pregnancy videos, fake videos, cringy videos. This channel isn't helpful. They have been doing fake hacks that are never helpful. I hope they get terminated off YouTube.
This channel is just plain weird, man. The crafts are often needlessly bizarre, never helpful in the real world, and would only work in staged situations.
Among the worst channels on the site, they post clickbait or do permanent damage to delicate things and disguise them as crafts, life hacks, and pranks.

Ali-A
Alastair Aiken, better known by his online alias Ali-A, is a British YouTuber best known for his Call of Duty and Fortnite content. His videos include gameplay commentaries, reaction videos, and vlogs related to gaming culture. He has built a large following on YouTube and other social media platforms... read more
He lives off of Fortnite and clickbait to pay his bills. He literally can't live without YouTube. This clown is too lazy to get a job and support his family. He probably can't walk 10 feet outside without his mother telling him to walk right back inside or no Fortnite for a week.
Should be in the top 5! He uses so much clickbait!
Ali-A clickbait reacts but edits pictures to make you think it's real, but it's not.

MrTop5
He has two channels (one which is his original and the other where he posts Roblox content), in which he misleads viewers with clickbaity titles and thumbnails. He lies to his own fans, the people who actually watch his content. This guy probably will never stop clickbaiting if it means he can get more than a million Robux.
He is 100% the worst YouTuber ever because almost every thumbnail he uses says he is going to do a face reveal, and then in the video, he doesn't do the face reveal. Enough said!
Fake and fake and even more fake. One of the most clickbait YouTubers ever. He acts everything out and has no skill whatsoever.

He and his friends make up scenarios for video ideas. Not really clickbait but more of a misleading thumbnail.
