Starting with a few hundred viewers on her Fortnite streams to thousands on her Among Us streams, Rachel “Valkyrae” Hofstetter has slowly taken over the industry. Almost over a year ago, Rae made the tough decision to switch from Twitch to YouTube. Leaving her comfort zone for a completely new platform was certainly scary. However, in her time on the platform, she has certainly established herself as the ‘Queen of YouTube’.

Since her viewership skyrocketed last year, Valkyrae has earned various opportunities. 2021 has already been the most successful year for the streamer, and she is only halfway through. From rising to be the co-owner of 100 Thieves to appearing in music videos by popular artists, Rae has become one of the most popular female faces on the internet.

Valkyrae has close to 3.5 million subs on YouTube and averages close to a million views on most of her videos. Many of her videos have also crossed the 2-3 million mark. While the 29-year old majorly streams and uploads Among Us content, she also has certain vlogs in the mix.
