But you probably never knew these things about Kandee Johnson.
Those skills would later pay off in Johnson’s future career as a celebrity makeup artist andoccasional wardrobe stylist.

The job also put some cash in Johnson’s pocket so that she could buy clothes.
She revealed in an Instagram post that her paycheckwent to buying cute outfits.
It seems that Johnson has an extensive list of talents, including some serious musical chops.

Her talents don’t end there, though.
Johnson writes her own songs and has been doing so since she wasa little kid.
Before she started her YouTube channel in 2009, Johnson started bloggingin 2008.

Though you’d naturally assume she started blogging aboutbeautyand transitioned to YouTube, that’s actually not the case.
She slowly began branching out into beauty and style, but her first posts were all about her kids.
Even after she had launched her YouTube channel, Johnson still made time to write about her kids.

Celeb Secrets TVasked her how long it takes her to get ready on a normal day.
When she puts a little bit more effort into her hair, she can be ready in 45 minutes.
“I never get a day off.

In an interview withE!
News, Johnson was asked if being a YouTube star required working full-time hours.
“I never get a day off.

I’m up editing until four in the morning.
It just never stops.
But it’s amazing.”

At least all that hard work is fun when you’re doing something that makes you happy!
In an interview withFusion, Johnson gave some advice to people who are just starting out on YouTube.
“verify you’re starting for the right reason,” she said.

And then just always talk like you’re talking to your best friend or your sister.
You’re just being weird.”
In an Instagram post, Johnsonpaid homage to her mom.

“I became best friends with her before I was even born,” she wrote.
The sound of her voice instantly makes me feel that everything is ok.
I wouldn’t be who I am today without her."

Such tributes are common on Johnson’s social media profiles, proving just how much she loves her family.
She has also posted about herfather,grandmother, andgrandfather, all of whom have passed away.
Johnson has been open about her grief over losing her loved ones.

Hollywood bound?
Johnson has been adding to her lengthy resume by branching out onto a big screen.
She announced her foray into actingon Twitterin 2016, when she was cast as Mandy Sparkledust in Trolls.
Back in 2003, she had a role in the small independent filmFive Beans.
Will Johnson transition into a Hollywood superstar?
Only time will tell.
Who knows what the future will hold.
YouTube hasn’t actually been around that long.
The website has become a cornerstone of the Internet, but it has only been onlinesince 2005.
The age of the internet celebrity is still a very new one.
And I like being a part of that.
“It wasn’t like what it is now.”
Johnson is impressed with how far the website has come.
“Seeing… what it’s created is amazing,” she said.
“People’s lives are changing.”
“It does change because you don’t know what is going to work,” Johnson said.
“You don’t know what YouTube likes, what is working right now.
… Back when I started… people didn’t have a lot of options.”
