Liza Koshy has had a massive 2018 — from headlining her first scripted series, YouTube Premium‘s Liza On Demand, to crossing the 15 million-subscriber threshold after three short years.
Last night, Koshy was rewarded handsomely for her achievements at the annual 2018 Teen Choice Awards. The 22-year-old took home three surfboards — a notable feat given that the show only furnishes awards for digital talent in a handful of categories. Koshy was named ‘Choice Female Web Star’ — beating out Teen Choice Awards host Lele Pons — as well as ‘Choice Comedy Web Star’ and ‘Choice YouTuber’.
And if past is prologue, the evening’s other big winners should come as no surprise. The Dolan Twins
cleaned up in the ‘Choice Comedian’ category — beating out a star-studded field comprising Ellen DeGeneres, James Corden, Jimmy Fallon, Kevin Hart, and Lilly Singh. The twins also took home honors for ‘Choice Male Web Star’.Teen Choice Awards winners are determined by fan votes across a plethora of social media platforms. Other digital creators honored at last night’s ceremony included Erika Costell (‘Choice Music Web Star’), James Charles (‘Choice Fashion/Beauty Web Star’), and Mackenzie Ziegler (‘Choice Muser’).
