As we celebrate @youtube’s 20th birthday, we've seen a huge shift in how people create and enjoy content. Sat down with @Variety's @xpangler (and braved some hot wings from @seanseaevans) to talk about why creators are our top priority, how we’re carving our own path, and more 👇

Great to see so many @youtubecreators on this year's #TIME100Creators list, including @KaiCenat on @TIME's new cover. Creators continue to shape entertainment and culture around the world.
TIME's new cover: Digital creators are changing what we watch, how we spend our time, what we buy, and how we vote. Today, we release the inaugural TIME100 Creators list, in recognition of how significantly these individuals are reshaping our culture ti.me/3IxTAqG…
Amazing to see entrepreneurial @youtubecreators like @dharmann start out filming content from their homes and apartments, then growing their businesses into huge studios (in Dhar’s case, a 100,000 square foot facility with 200 employees). They’re testing out new ideas and…
"It all started with the simple mission of helping people get through a hard time...I wanted to create content that inspires the world," says Dhar Mann Studios CEO @dharmann. cnb.cx/4k9Fb16

This @nytimes story has been 20 years in the making: nytimes.com/2025/06/17/bus… According to @Nielsen, streaming viewership in the U.S. surpassed that of broadcasting & cable (combined) for the first time ever in May. @YouTube accounted for 12.5% of all TV time. A huge thank you…
At the start of the year, one of my bets for @youtube was that AI will make the viewing experience better for everyone. Last week we shared two AI updates for viewers: - @youtube Premium members in the U.S. can try out an AI-generated search results carousel to help them find…
This weekend ABBA’s “Dancing Queen” hit 1B views on @youtube, almost 50 years after its debut 🎵 Such a massive milestone for a universally loved song. Inspiring to see artists building legacy and multigenerational fandom on our platform. Read more in @MusicAlly:…
Last week at #CannesLions2025 wasn’t just about celebrating 20 years of @youtube (and getting rickrolled by the one and only Rick Astley). It was about casting our vision for the next 20, and I believe the next revolution in creativity and brand building will happen on our…

Excited about @youtube's new tool Open Call: a win-win for @youtubecreators and advertisers. Creators want longer-term partnerships with brands, and brands want the relevance of the world’s most influential creators (not just the reach of TV) 🤝
YouTube announced an easier way to connect brands with creators, called Open Call, on Tuesday at the Cannes Lions festival. bit.ly/3TrO7E9

So inspiring to see @Cannes_Lions put @youtubecreators front & center throughout all of its festival events this week, including @ameliadimz, @alexandracooper and Brandon B at the @YouTube keynote and so many creators at our #youtubecreatorcollective events. Creators are being…
