In addition to the vlogs that he regularly posts, Collins has uploaded a number of cover songs onto his page, most of which have garnered hundreds of thousands of hits each.
Looking at his channel now, his most popular video- a cover of Something That I Used to Know has been viewed over 7.5 million times. Some of his other top uploads include How to Get a Guy to Like You, What Makes a Girl Attractive, and How to Tell if a Guy Likes You. Considering his wide audience and reach, it wouldn’t be surprising if Collins earns himself a pretty pay check from Youtube, via their partnership program.
By choosing to display ads on one’s videos, Youtubers are able to make some money on the side through the site. Typically, Google pays its users upwards of $5 per 1,000 monetized views- while this may seem like a trivial amount at first, the total earnings can easily add up if you have a considerable following, like Collins. Seeing as how he has over 91 million views on his channel, a few simple calculations tell us that his earnings can be upwards of $180,000.

As a recording artist, he has released a few songs including One, Ain’t Ready and Don’t Let Go. At one point, he even collaborated with his sister, Kirsten Collins on a track. In November 2015, he started a fundraiser to help raise money for the creation of his first extended play, Bringing a Dream to Life. The last that we checked, he had raised close to $16,000 towards the project.
