I actually bought Nivea Kiss of Moisture because of you:) I usually use Bert's Bees but I work in a dry environment and it hasn't been working for me lately.

[MrSteveka]

I just like to hear you talk, Michael. When I grow up I want to be just like you!!! :)

[Riwa003]

you're so sweet...

it is very important,that people putting commercials on their videos think not just about money,but about people,who'll watch it,too :)

[steadyaccess]

I WANNA BE YOUR FRIEND!

[canica85]

[ganzobenstehn]

[RobzFanpire]

Tut tut. Premoting Nivea and Lucy and Ethal dolls xD Jokes

[23Allie23]

Gahh! I can't believe 2007 is considered "forever ago" now!!! Sorry, kinda unrealated comment haha.

But I love hearing from someone so "high up" on youtube talking about deals they've done and such... I doubt others that you mentioned would be a open.

[DontBlameTheBunny]

What do you mean you've never given us anything? You give us joy and alot of laughs :)

[verandi1986]

i love you buck but please don't turn on the pre-rolls! i hate those...

[zomgcaitlin]

Haha! The personality thing is absolutely true. I have no interest in Celeb gossip, and have no idea what your talking about around half the time, but I completely love watching your videos!

Love ya! <4

[ggelftrauts]

Celebrity gossip's not my thing but I just think Buck's videoes are great 5 stars!

[Janette0220]

[StrGrlOllie]

After seeing this, I actually went out and bought Nivea chapstick.

[smoothseas1]

i hate pre rolls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TranceBabyXxX]

love you buck =), i recomend you watch a Kandee Johnston video! i watch alot of here just because of her personality shes really cool. & sometimes im intrested in the make up look shes doing X

[Missekatt100]

watch KANDEE JOHNSON! :)

[bleditic]

wow ....nivea? i have the same but in cherry and it gives so much color and moisture to your lips.... i heart that

[pandemiCDG]

I think this is an important video, because the massive product placement needs to be addressed.

I don't think many people realize that they're essentially watching an ad on their favorite channel, which is what bothers me.

Prerolls are a different thing because people know they're watching an ad.

These companies are only in for the money, they don't care about their product.

I don't really blame the bloggers even though they're being complete tools, but there should be more regulation.

[unitedwestunt]

nivea should really sponsor you...you flashed that chap stick lik 15 times...i feel like i need it now

[chalicetree]

I love your rambling, noone does it like you, sha

[catinplaid]

I love that you talk about youtube being personality driven. I don't care about celebrity gossip at all, but lately I can't stop watching your videos. You are just so fun and entertaining to watch. Thanks for being one of the great personalities on youtube.

[lunacielostar14]

blair!!!!!!!!!!! & elle!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[lilcheerdiva214]

[russianFrEaK617]

[xoxKatieMariexox]

[spcarroll1]

i thought that was pretty entertaining!

[AlliKat7329]

This is my first time watching you...and now I won't be able to stop...

[modellecouture]

Ahaha, at 3:37 you take like three seconds to apply the chapstick :) And it's true what lilmskris120 said, you wave it all the time! I love it :)) You're awesome

[slor]

love nivea hydrating lip care; i'm using mine now too <3

[Merkelige]

Buck! xsparkage, watch her? Cute, cute. Also, Blair has a sister. Her voice isn't as awesome as Blair's though.< 3

[kara0k3]

[lilmskris120]

[ivette818]

[rosebudnoir]

"I would never.. whatever" rhyme :D

[nanapanda1]

hey if u keep putting on the nivea ur lips will get addicted and the will always be chapped because without it they wont get better

but is fun in a way to keep putting it on

[Madisenz]

hi buck! don't forget about all the AA stuff that they sent you!

[AnnaBananaSplit14]

i love how you keep putting on the nivea!!!! haha

[michyyy]

@AnnaBananaSplit14 lmaoooo

[RayneyNight]

There was the big box of American Apparel stuffs, though it wasn't really a product placement.

I understand what you mean. Honestly I don't care about celebrity gossip but I love watching you. Your personality just makes me keep watching. ✿◕‿◕✿

[TheKristenAndKaciSho]

OMFG... lol I agree with every little flipping detail of this video. EVERY LITTLE THING!! ahhhh! lol I love at the end *White Teeth* lol Glee. I love it too... I'm trying to decide whether I like Vol.1 or 2 better.

And yeah I don't watch the videos for what the person is doing (unless it's a vlog) i'm like i just wanna see YOU!! which is sorta creepy I know... but yeah. That's why i love Blair's vlog channel <3

and yes... by the end i was still listening. (reason listed above) :)

[amy1910]

whats a pre roll?

[SuperMandy1996]

they have 2 put that....FTC law (the disclaimer)

[StacyFacey]

i love blair's personality

[sassylatina85]

you probably watch her sister all that glitters! she does makeup tutorials too.

[mad4vibe]

Buck, give me summit....ur gawjus so u know wot i want... ;-)

[chaosninja57926]

and yes, i was still listening at the end =)

love you

[Latindolll4]

This is very funny but true I guess most people can tell when a video sounds a bit like an infomercial these days :) lol

I love u by the way :)

[tarynproductions]

love herrr! (juicystar07)

[chaosninja57926]

ha im a girl and i totally dont wear makeup either and i watch juicy star allll the time too =P

[curlyhead12]

You just made my new year better! :]

[RaSaUsproductions]

you got amaerican apparel sent i think

[CheapFashionBlog]

love you buck and all of the makeup gurus! I love being a makeup guru and love my audience!! :)

[xxkate152xx]

i want the second volume of glee cd, so bad. i have the first 1. need to go buy that.

[colombianaj93]

yay i love juicystar07!!

[laylamoocow]

blair is good, michelle phan is amazing.

[lalalalalovelyyyyyyy]

no way i have that chap stick i just got it like 2 weeks ago too

[jomarielovesmakeup]

hahahahahha your funny (:

and blair is my fave makeup guru too!

[zweetcel]

Blair's my fave make up guru!! ;D

[PrincessxSara101]

Are you sick? Your voice sounds like you have a cold. I hope you feel better

[dazzling734501]

Juicystar07 is one of my favourite make up gurus

[lalalalauren14]

the disclaimer is because there is a new law that came in on december 1. thats why they put those in there. if that law wasnt in place then they wouldnt let anyone know if they were sent the product or not.

[Livin2Vid]

haha

I have that chapstick

it IS really good! :P

[Sabby9523]

same here. i love it.

[angel56335]

ur welcome! lol it's nice to see ur not that perky all the time. and it's cool to see u can actually be business like. in this video u kind of go into business mode. u'd be good for a show on tv.

[wittywhitmarla]

DulceCandy87 is fabulous and Traci Hines is adorable :))

[MindlessHello]

i think dulce is annoying (:

[SarahXiaMusic]

she's not.

she seems really nice. :)

you're probably just jealous because she's gorgeous.

[MindlessHello]

I think she's annoying.

I never said she was ugly,

she is pretty,

i used to love her videos,

but after awhile her channel started going downhill for me.

when people share their opinions, that doesnt make them jealous. k?

[missalyfaye17]

i dont like her either. she does too many hauls. thats like all she dooes. who cares about what she bought? lmao

[cr8ziibby292]

I actually like the HAULS. I'm sorry if you don't but the reason she does them is because many others likes them too. I actually like her hauls, not much for the makeup (:

[colombianaj93]

agreed!!!

[missalyfaye17]

okay.. i was talking to another youtuber.. didnt much care for your opinion. thanks.

[SarahXiaMusic]

agreed :)

i love her haul videos, they give me lots of ideas for my own outfits or places to buy them.

[SarahXiaMusic]

lololol

you have lotsa thumbs down for both your comments. :P

and wow, WAYYY to be a hypocrite.

you say dulce is annoying, then you creep me and go on a weird video i commented on saying i was a bitch and the stuff i said wouldn't make a girl feel good.

you think saying dulce is annoying makes her feel good?

wow. lol. what a joke.

[candyshop505]

they have to put the disclaimer in there cuz its like..the new law now or something, idk. but you can get fined if you have a product in your video & dont put that in there.

[Thanks4TheLolz]

I saw you on Most Annoying People of 2009 and you looked so cool! ^^ I was watching with my mum and was like omg omg thats buck! lols :D

[xxNickyBic]

you are awesome Buck :)

luv all your videos, even if i am not exactly interested in a topic you are discussing i watch your vids because you make me laugh and make my day better, yup thats cheesy but you know what i mean :) stay as you are in 2010, don't change a thing!

[ammmy]

Haha the FTC instituted a law about the disclaimers so that consumers will know whether the review is completely unaffected or if it's being paid for. I really appreciate it actually. It's told a lot of truths that certain gurus were hiding.

[mealie1613]

What is pre-roll? When the ad plays in the begin?

[Arcturus5]

I have to say that the pre-rolls really bug me. They're not really a deal-breaker for channels I only watch occasionally, but for one like yours that I watch pretty often, it'd be weird. I definitely prefer show-with-prerolls to Buck-starving-and-living-in-a-­very-gay-refrigerator-box, but still.

[ratherdead]

buck you gave me enough with your vids!

[firefare]

There ya' go. White teeth. Still listening. Love it. :P

[dedicatedrr]

ah...for some reason I found this video very interesting XD

[usarocks97]

That's my fav chap stick :DD

[RandaMoody]

I love Blair!!

[tinkerzzz]

luv uuuuuuuuuuuuu buck<3

[Ganxiba]

Happy new year, Buck!

[gdhippie98]

love you buck!!!!

[katfruit81]

haaa haha aaah

what a great video.....

[BigUncleJeff]

oh i see you do watch michelle phan . shes great. and hot.

[kenrikun]

If you do a give away it should be something like the new Glee CD or whatever that is. No, no I mean Twilight DVD. Something related to your videos.

[MakeupByRisa]

People do contests to get their video and channel more visible while increasing views and subs, which means more money if partnered, or more attention so youtube will grant partnership.

[MakeupByRisa]

you should see if diet coke/pepsi will sponser you since you love it so much!

[BadHatHarry3]

Ah, I love the Lucy and Ethel dolls <3.

I also gave in and checked Glee out. It's so bad and ridiculously cheesy, but I can't stop watching haha. I love Jane Lynch, so I suppose that helps.

[nikidreamz15]

by "that blonde girl", do you mean allthatglitters21?

shes blair's sister!

and i agree! I LOVE watching blair and elle's videos too!!!

[Splunktopus]

I want to see the other Michael! He is so mysterious...

[shquib]

haha

[86COLE]

I love that chap stick! I've been using it for like a year & it's the best!

[unwritten123x]

o! n omg!! i TOTALLY agree wit u on that other vd of urs when u talked at the glee cd n how like the last 2 or 3 songs sound like a buncha lil kids screamin (i don have the cd but i heard the songs) n ommgg i'm ssoo happy its not jus ME who sees that

[unwritten123x]

wat do ya think abt chris crocker? drama queen? gud role model?

[hotmodel6c]

i have that chapstick....its awsome

[stevenwhite2010]

I HATE pre rolls

They ar so annoying!

I click a video because i want to watch *GASP* the freaking video! Not a 15 or 30 second ad for something I probably don't need or already have.

The pop up ads dont take up that much room and I can easily X out of them.

I think you tube should take down pre rolls.

And vevo, but thats another topic lol

[shuddupanhtu]

ahhaa, you need your own show!

[JGKV531816]

allthatglitters!!!

[TheHill88]

I found this video from watching juicystar07 - I heart her. I could listen to her talk for ages and ages... and I watched her have a facial and was fascinated. I made fun of "haul videos" but I LOVE the guru's.

It's good to see you talk about this and maybe the guru's are helping make product placement okay for everyone.

(we) were sent an orabrush... I kinda want to find it now...:P

[MandyByken]

I like showyoumakeup. I don't watch her for the make up tips really, I just enjoy watching her. She seems like a really great person. Although the make up tips are proving helpful. :D

[hlmohamed]

same thing about last night, i was just watching qvc just because i liked how the people were interacting with each other. my son asked me why i'm just watching it if I don't want the product. lol

[ScottsShadow]

i watched the full video because I love you <3

[centrichawk]

Turn pre-rolls on! You're worth the wait!!!! Get yo' money ;)

[MsKidsontheblock]

blueberry and berry are goodl ip gloss i even have ice tea flavor but i got it last year for x-mas still using it :)

[MsKidsontheblock]

jealouse i didn't get new lip gloss :( of coourse i didn't ask for it but i loved it if it just hsowed up.

[vanillaprincess22]

hahahaha i LOVE you buck!!! i also love how you can laugh at yourself!! hahah the lucy and effile dolls are too cute!!:)))

[TheManiacOnWheelsUSA]

It's Lucy and Ethel. lol

[Roxasisluff]

Lmao, no prerolls!

But this was an awesome video. c:

[millbill840]

what are prerolls?

[TheManiacOnWheelsUSA]

I believe it's those commercials which are shown before the actual video starts.

[millbill840]

@TheManiacOnWheelsUSA oh that makes sense. :) thanks

[ANNIExLEONARD]

white teeth :)

[charlottepoet]

i haven't watched any of the makeup vids but now i'm thinking i should check them out :)

[MaryElizabethC]

They are actually quite entertaining. I don't even wear makeup and they are still pretty entertaining.

[MisfitMassacreMakeup]

i do makeup stuff too! :) i think that is so true though michael, it's more about personalities that people subscribe! if you're dull and boring no one will wnt to watch you.<3

[flipside021]

haha you're so funny! just found your videos through juicystar07's twitter!

[cocochronicles]

I loved this blog. I like the "real" you coming through on this one.

[plattsburghstar77]

i use the same nivea stuff!!

[peaceandloveexx964]

i love buck and blair : ) but please buck... no prerolls bud. but if you do decide to do them... of course we will still watch : )

[dramadramadramadrama]

OMG! I really want a Nivea lip balm thing now!!!! AAAAAAAAAAH!

[omgeisha]

no prerolls!!

[AnimeChicka]

It's so true! <3 I love watching all the makeup gurus, especially Blair and Elle. I don't really care about makeup in general, though.

[luckyclover012]

love your personality!

[MahinaSinger]

LOVE YOU BUCK! =)

[speedgirl131]

yeah!!!! i do like you!

[i don't really care about celeb gossip]

[emilyb12311]

aaaahhhh i love blair.

and i love you!

[jdepluva10]

no, don't do the prerolls please, they are so annoying because you are forced to watch it if you want to watch your video, and they're also double as loud as the program, which hurts my ears :(

i'm not saying i would stop watching your show because of it and i respect your need to make money off your hard work, but i would honestly rather see you do product placement because at least then you are endorsing the product with your own personality and voice :)

[shopalot024]

i love you buck!

[jlwd2007]

Hello, Michael.

I would just like to thank you for making this video, I am a Media Student over in England as you might well know product placement is baned over here,and i have been given a project on it-thank you for making this interesting, and how funny is that your talkin about it when i have a project!

I would also like to say, I think your amazing, and i love your videos, i am just so happy to see an openly gay man become a success on such a conservative website that is YouTube

Jack x

[ladycookieluck]

It's the FTC Guidline crap's... I started doing it too.. I dont like it.. Anyway- You ever watch me? :) LadyCookieLuck? Yeah? No? :)
