Select Management Hires Jake Webb; Adds WolfieRaps, Nikita Dragun, 8 Others To Roster (Exclusive)

Select Management Group, the digital talent management firm that counts starry clients like Gigi Gorgeous, LaurDIY, and MyLifeAsEva, has hired talent manager Jake Webb — who has in turn brought a slew of illustrious clients on board.

Webb will be based out of Select’s Los Angeles offices and report to partners Scott Fisher and Adam Wescott. His roster of creators span the lifestyle, beauty, and comedy spaces, including: comedian/rapper Charlie ‘WolfieRaps’ Xavier (10.2 million YouTube subscribers), transgender beauty vlogger Nikita Dragun (700,000 subscribers), plus-size fashion vlogger and paranormal storytime teller Loey Lane (1.2 million subscribers), gay twin vlogger brothers The Rhodes Bros (700,000 subscribers), and lifestyle creator Bri Hall (550,000 subscribers).

Select reps clients with respect to opportunities in film, TV, music, and brand partnerships — and it has inked notable deals with Fanta, Revlon, Starbucks, and Crest. Earlier this year, the company’s production arm SelectNext released the feature documentary This Is Everything: Gigi Gorgeous, as well as Me And My Grandma, a scripted half-hour comedy starring Eva Gutowski and Rhea Perlman. Both projects premiered on YouTube Red.
