    I'm not Asian, I'm half Black African Nigerian and half White American, but I still want to see more Asian's on TV including West Asian's. Go Asians! I know you don't need my support but I support you anyway.

    • @essennagerry
      @essennagerry 8 лет назад +3

      All support is making a difference. :) I'm white and for some reason I really like Black and Asian people, I don't know why, ya'll just beautiful. :D Because of youtube I can see what media presents as Blacks and Asians soooo often seems sooooo fake. That's why I love supporting other races on youtube! Sometimes I don't meddle and just watch them get together in their group, but sometimes I go like "hey I'm white and I've never thought this stereotype is true, don't get down because of that" or something like that. I think all support is valuable and even the simplest, most obvious opinion is much appreciated at places where a lie has been crowned. So keep supporting!

    its weird how some people don't think you have a "real job" if you're not some corporate slave to some random company that robs you of your life and spirit with shoving paperwork and being stuck in some dead-atmosphere cubicle. being happy with the career we make for ourselves is not something we should apologize about.

    it's so weird to see ryan so serious.. it's like he has 2 personalities- the childish, loud and outgoing one and the reserved, quiet and serious one. he's always so different in interviews- I love both sides of him

    • @SuperSilverJay
      @SuperSilverJay 10 лет назад +11

      He seemed really uncomfortable being serious though. He repeated himself a lot. I think he's a lot more himself when he's being funny.

      must’ve doesn’t wouldn’t be an option to go out there for me but if it does then question explain deduction form for you i will get a check and i don’t know how you would be paying the rent form but you know how much important you need and if it’s not enough you know how many you have a problem and if it isn’t it’s fine just tell us then we don’t care anymore i will pay the bill but we have no choice but we have the money so you don’t want it to pay the rent also i have no problem getting a new car i have to go buy my wife so we don’t want you having too expensive to get paid to buy new house so we don’t need hundreds history would’ve been better for us but you don’t need money you just want us to pay them and then they have their car unlike us we can pay the rent we don’t want the rent is what we can pay them

  • @JohnnyRoseofVersailles

    I'm not Asian, I'm white, but I do hate that TV is so racist and has so little diversity. And when they use people of different races from white, or different sexual orientations they usually go with stereotypes, and they're never the main character. It's such a shame that there's so little diversity in American tv especially towards Asian Americans. RUclips proves it how much talent there's out there that TV and cinema aren't using. I remember reading about Vanness Wu a few years ago when I was watching Taiwanese dramas that he was an Asian American, born and raised in the US, who didn't speak Chinese and yet he moved to Taiwan to create a career there, and became one of the biggest stars in Asia (and eventually learned to speak better Chinese). Why does an American have to go all the way to Asia to make it as an artist, as an actor, I really don't get it. That's why I see the future of tv on things like RUclips, Yahoo, Netflix. As long as it's the people who decide and not production companies run by white old dudes. Sidenote, please support John Cho in his new sitcom Selfie on ABC, this fall where he plays the lead male character, that rarely happens for an Asian American to play the lead romantic character in an American tv show, unfortunately, so please support him and help the show become successful!

    • @NanishenmetF
      @NanishenmetF 9 лет назад

      Yup, there's so many people with talent to share for the world but the problem is the world doesn't accept it all the time. A huge example is a singer and her name is Ailee, but her real name is Amy (Ailee is her stage name). She is Korean American and was born and raised in New Jersey. She had a RUclips channel where she would sing covers of songs, and her voice is just phenomenal, so she was recognized (to an extent) and had a chance to make it to the American music industry, but of course, she was somehow rejected, and the only reason for that that I can think of is due to her ethnicity. But fortunately the CEO of a music label in Korea discovered her through her RUclips videos so she moved to Korea to sing, and now she's huge all over the country, and becoming more internationally famous. She did covers of Beyoncé's Halo, I Will Always Love You, etc., songs of that legendary level, and she practically sounds like the original. Her nickname is "Korea's Beyoncé" and there's a reason for that. She could make it big worldwide and maybe eventually up to Beyoncé's level. It's just saddening how narrow minded people cam be.

  • @rinaakhter

    Ryan is the first RUclipsr I watched and is still my favorite.

  • @mockingjade9845
    @mockingjade9845 10 лет назад +2

    It's cool that I see many Asian RUclipsrs and I can't help feeling proud. I also like other celebrities/RUclipsrs, but to see your own people, Asians, for example, being famous and appreciated by everyone, it's something. It's not a competition about who is better at this or that, but to be able to represent your own culture is something anyone should be proud of.
    This is an inspiring video. I'd been watching Nigahiga for five years now (starting from his How to be's to his Skitzo's to his Dear Ryan's to his Movies in Minutes' and now his Teehee time's), and I know Ryan deserves to be where he is right now. He makes videos that really are entertaining. And you could actually see him enjoying what he's doing in the videos from the BTS and pretty much from all his videos.

    • @essennagerry
      @essennagerry 8 лет назад

      Ben Balman Absolutely. :) I'm happy for you. Don't ever get down about what you haven't done up until now - you live now and your dreams are yet to come. :) Honestly the worst scenario is you do it as a hobby, and you're still doing something you love. But I wish you lots of success! You inspire *me* because I'm in a similar position. :)

    • @DeaconXPS
      @DeaconXPS 8 лет назад

      +essennagerry wise words my friend and a very healthy perspective. From all those that pushed me out of my slump, I do know that it takes a very healthy dose of determination. Are you facing any obstacles in your efforts?

    • @essennagerry
      @essennagerry 8 лет назад

      Ben Balman Not right now, I'm jut at the beginning. Time, I guess? I used to have plenty of time and no money to buy the things I "need", now I have the things I need (let's just say my brother is awesome), but I don't have time. If I were less lazy I would definitely have more time, so you can put that in the list too. :/ BUT, I'm not stressing myself. :) Sometimes the beginning is the easiest, sometimes it's the opposite. Right now it's easy. How about you?

    Fantastic! Let's get more Asian writers behind the scenes too! I think that would make it easier to integrate Asian characters without the typical stereotypes~

    I'm white and honestly my favorite things to watch have Asians in them. Or were directed by Asians. I wish TV would put Ryan or wongfupro something on tv. They're all so talented idk how nobody has offered them a TV show.
