Chris Brown posted a photo to his official Instagram account showing that he has been awarded the Diamond Play Button for hitting the 10 million follower mark on his YouTube channel. The Diamond Play Button is the highest pinnacle one can reach on YouTube The only level higher than Diamond is Ruby, which is awarded for attaining 50 million subscribers. Only one YouTuber, PewDiePie was been given a Ruby trophy.
The letter reads:
Dear Chris Brown,
At a hundred thousand, we thought: Not Bad. That’s a healthy new channel
At one million, we thought: Wow, this creator’s got something pretty awesome going on.
But 10 million? At this point we’re scratching our heads. How the heck did you DO that? 10 million subscribers isn’t just a lot of people, it’s more than the entire population of New York City!
The fact is, you’re no longer a great channel. You’re a movement. You’ve clearly touched a nerve in the world, and you’ve found a legion of fans who expect -and receive- great things from you.
We hope you’ll accept this Diamond Play Button as a woefully inadequate token of our appreciation,and our respect for what you’ve accomplished.
You amaze us and inspire us everyday. Keep it coming.
