It’s another installment of the weekly Tubefilter Chart of the Top 50 Most Viewed U.S. YouTube Channels and it’s a good one for videos of adults playing with children’s toys and children playing with antiquated entertainment technology.
Chart Toppers
DisneyCollectorBR took home the #1 spot in the U.S. this week. The online video collection of adults showcasing and playing with toys meant for kids in Pre-K racked up over 55.2 million views on the week. Shakira dropped down to second place. The international pop star’s World Cup 2014 anthem, “La La La” made a healthy contribution to her channel’s weekly view count of more than 53.6 million views.

In third this week is The Fine Bros. Benny and Rafi Fine’s steady supply of quality entertainment and kids playing with now antiquated forms of technology helped their channel score more than 42.7 million views in the last seven days. Katy Perry is up next in the #4 spot. The 29-year-old singer’s “Birthday” is still being celebrated online along with the rest of her music video catalog. All in all, Perry closed the week with more than 40.5 million views. And rounding out the Top 5 once again is Enrique Iglesias. Despite no major releases in the past several weeks, the Spanish singer-songwriter, actor, and record producer’s YouTube channel scored more than 40.2 million views.
Top Gainers
The honor of one of our Top Gainers this week goes to Shaytards.
The channel that’s home to a five-years-running, almost-daily video documentary of the life of Shay Carl, his wife Colette, and their five children made its first appearance in the U.S. Top 50 at the #49 spot this week. There wasn’t any particular video that accumulated a disproportionate amount of views to cause Shaytards to crack into the charts, but rather it was simply a very good week for the family’s prolific online video output. Shaytards amassed nearly 12.6 million views during the week, a 10% increase over the week prior.
Channel Distribution
All in all, the top 50 most viewed U.S. YouTube channels this week amassed a total of 1,069,180,786 views. Here’s the distribution of those channels by multi-channel network:
VEVO: 17 channels in the U.S. Top 50, with Shakira topping out at #2.
