YouTube Star Shayne Topp Shows Off Best Celebrity Impersonations
Shayne Topp joined SMOSH in 2015, and has appeared in many of the popular YouTube channel's sketch comedy shows.
The comedian sits down with Alyssa Julya Smith in Los Angeles to talk about the channel's new game show, "You Posted That?"
Topp talks about his role as the the announcer and sidekick to SMOSH co-founder Ian Hecox. The newest series is the brand's first long-form series on the main channel in its 12- year history.
Topp talks about almost giving up and moving back home before landing the gig with Smosh. He started out in traditional TV and recently had a recurring role on ABC’s "The Goldbergs." The funnyman discusses how he made the switch from traditional television to digital, and how he has come to embrace the Youtube format.
Topp also showed off some of his best celebrity impersonations, including Donald Trump, Bill Clinton and Matthew McConaughey. "You Posted That?" releases new episodes on SMOSH's Youtube channel every Wednesday.
