<p>From simply doing live shows and meet and greets and posting updates on social media, celebrities have found another way to interact with their fans in recent years – through vlogging!</p><p>And since some of them have been doing it for years already, others have accumulated millions of subscribers on YouTube, such as the stars listed in this Kapamilya Snaps feature who, as of June 2022, have the most number of subscribers on the video-sharing platform. </p><div> </div><div><strong>Awra Briguela (1.04 million subscribers)</strong></div><p>From being that simple kid who used to make us droll with her funny facial expressions that went viral online, as well as with her award-winning stint in <a href="https://ent.abs-cbn.com/angprobinsyano" target="_blank"><u><strong>FPJ’s Ang Probinsyano</strong></u></a> as MakMak, we’ve witnessed how Awra has grown to become one of the brightest stars of her generation.</p><p>As she ventures on vlogging, she simply doesn’t only utilize it to update her fans about her latest ganaps, such as when she celebrated her 18th birthday last June by throwing a flamboyant party, but to also champion the LGBTQIA+ community where she belongs. </p><div> </div><div><strong>Jessy Mendiola (1.05 million subscribers)</strong></div><p>We may not see her on television as much as we used to a few years ago, but Jessy has found a way to be able to still connect with her adoring supporters – by putting up a YouTube channel through which she gives us a peek on her life behind the camera and her married life with husband Luis Manzano.</p><p>She also loves taking on random challenges, such as her latest that is reacting to some of her most embarrassing moments on television.</p><div> </div><div><strong>Maris Racal (1.12 million subscribers)</strong></div><p>Aside from being a talented actress, singer, dancer, and even composer, Maris is also admired for her bubbly personality, which she’s able to display in her vlogs.
