I was recording my audiobook, and it's so weird. You write things, but then to have to say them out loud in front of people feels so different. So when I was recording my audiobook, I was telling an embarrassing story in front of, like, a room full of audio-tech people that I don't know, and I was like 'Oh my God, this is so cringe.'

I could pick a favorite YouTuber, maybe I would say GloZell.

From Tyler Oakley

For any YouTuber, if you're too nervous to have somebody else document, it may be that what you're putting out there isn't authentic.

From Tyler Oakley

I want people to get a better sense of who I am, whether they've seen every video or zero videos.

From Tyler Oakley

Prior to 2015, I had kind of approached every year like, 'Let's hope for the best.' I always made these year-end videos with 100 things I did, and it would kind of build itself up throughout the year. When this year started, it was like I knew the 100 things before I even got to do them.

From Tyler Oakley

I'm trying to leave more of my calendar open for the spontaneous things. A lot of fun stuff that happened in previous years were things that were like, 'Hey are you available next week?' I wasn't really open unless it was planned months in advance. I'm excited to play it by ear and let a lot of stuff happen as it happens.

From Tyler Oakley

In 2016, one of the things I really hope to do is discover new talent and help develop it. Take what I've learned and what I can do and help amplify those voices.

From Tyler Oakley

I hope to introduce my audience to who I think is the next class of YouTuber.

From Tyler Oakley

I knew I could make a living doing my own videos instead of making them for someone else.

From Tyler Oakley

In my new book, 'Binge,' I share essays about everything I've never told my viewers - touching on the best and worst days of my life, some hilarious, some embarrassing, but all extremely personal.
