The platform showcased a lineup of creators who shared their personal journeys on YouTube and how they built their fan bases. The evening kicked off with a captivating performance by Benson Boone on “Beautiful Things” and concluded with the audience being serenaded by Billie Eilish, who performed “Ocean Eyes” and hit song “What Was I Made For?” from the Barbie movie. — Trishla Ostwal
