YouTube Millionaires: Chachi Gonzales’ Dances Reflect “Cool Moments” In Her Life

Welcome to YouTube Millionaires, where we profile channels that have recently crossed the one million subscriber mark. There are channels crossing this threshold every week, and each has a story to tell about YouTube success. Read previous installments of YouTube Millionaires here.

In 2011, at the age of 15, Chachi Gonzales rose to prominence thanks to her role as a member of the team that won the sixth season of the TV series America’s Best Dance Crew. Five years later, Gonzales continues to shake it on YouTube. With more than 1.1 million subscribers, she’s one of the Internet’s most popular dancers, and she matches her artistic skills with a fun-loving personality. When she’s not sharing her latest routine, she updates her viewers with vlogs and sketches. The many elements of her life were the subject of the Go90 series Chachi’s World

, which recently launched its second season. Here’s what Gonzales — who is partnered with Izo’s DanceOn, had to say about her videos.
