In the 21st Century, with YouTube taking over our lives, vlogging (video blogging) is the new ladder to the world of fame. Young people all over the globe are pushing the boundaries of hilarious comedy, sharing their opinions and reviews, and even using videos as an educational platform. Egypt is no different, with many Egyptians in both English and Arabic building up a national and international audience of loyal followers addicted to their vlogging content. So here are some of the best, funniest and most controversial Egyptian vloggers for you to check out:

The king of controversy, Shady Srour gets a lot of criticism for his odd humour taste and sarcasm, he is the character that everyone just loves to hate. Consistently rated as the top Egyptian vlogger according to search statistics, he is definitely worth checking out, although be warned, you may find yourself in a love/hate relationship with his videos!

This Egyptian living in Kuwait sort of shouts out criticism and sarcasm, but manages to be pretty hilarious.
