When it comes to being demure and cutesy, Joolie is the originator of the trend. See how we gave this creator her credit while using her phrase? Very modest, very mindful.

Although she had to fight a legal battle after someone trademarked her catchphrase before she had the chance to, Lebron’s comedic impact remains international. What makes the 30-year-old funny is how she highlights that you don’t always need to go overboard in situations that don’t require excessive reactions. Her sarcasm has earned her numerous brand collaborations, proving that her witty humor resonates widely.

4. Darcy and Jer

They even perform stand-up together, but some of their funniest videos are the ones filmed at home. The couples’ ability to engage their fanbase with relatable content about their everyday lives makes them not just funny but also incredibly endearing.

The prim and proper Dandy is not only a comedian but also a social activist! He delivers laughs in glamorous full drag, all while using his platform to educate and empower.
