Talent agency WME is adding to its roster of digital stars, signing musician Jon Cozart, budding actress Andrea Russett, and quirky family vlog squad the Eh Bee Family.
Cozart, who recently dropped a scathing musical account of the YouTube landscape in 2016, blends pop culture and current affairs as a so-called “info-tainer,” according to WME. His Paint channel counts 3.4 million subscribers and 267 million views.
Russett, who starred opposite Cameron Dallas in 2014’s Expelled (which was the second most-downloaded movie on iTunes that year), also appears in this summer’s Mike and Dave Need Wedding Dates, starring Zac Efron and Adam DeVine. In addition to partnering with top brands on her channel like Netflix, AT&T, Pizza Hut, and Coca Cola, Russett is also an avid supporter of The Thirst Project, which aims to provide communities around the world with safe drinking water.

Cozart will continue to be repped by Sarah Weichel MGMT and Jackoway Tyerman, and Russett will continue to be repped by Fullscreen and Hertz Lichtenstein.
WME has signed a litany of digital stars in recent months including Amanda Steele, Kenzie Nimmo, Caspar Lee, and more.
