Getting famous in the 21st century has never been easier and more accessible, thanks to the ever-growing demand for online content.
Gone were the days where explosive fame was limited to the lens of Hollywood and the rapid-fire flash of paparazzi.
Now it’s all about filming viral content on 10-megapixel cameras and catching up on the latest TikTok filters and trends. Although the window for fame is small and narrow, it would take only one 60-second video to launch anyone’s streaming career to the stratosphere. This is true in The Sims as well as IRL.
This fact is enough to motivate millennials and gen Z hopefuls to start a YouTube career, rather than aiming for the stars and finding sources of extraterrestrial life. But who could blame them, if the possibility of living an influencer lifestyle is as easy as filming your funny cat?
This CC list is perfect to get you started. Help your Sims get their 15 minutes of fame and get them all the equipment they’ll need to have a shot at YouTube stardom.
For some, it’s natural to have a camera glued on their face.
For others, it would take more prep time to confidently say, “Welcome to my channel!”
Being nervous on camera is A-OK. But achieving viral fame with stutters, long pauses, and wrong grammar is not exactly an ideal brand image (unless it’s deliberate).
First things first: have your Sims practice in front of cameras and help them gain much-needed charisma and acting skills to engage viewers into hitting Subscribe!

Everyone knows it’s hella expensive to build a superior gaming rig, not to mention the amount of convincing it would take for your parents to willingly give up some space in the house for a “stupid hobby.”
