Kendall Rae is a true-crime YouTuber and podcast host from the United States. Unsolved mysteries, space exploration, history, astrology, and paranormal activities are just some of the topics she delves into. Talking about conspiracy theories made her famous and wealthy! Today, Kendall Rae has a net worth of $1.5 million.
Background
Rae was born in Boston, Massachusetts, on April 22, 1993 and has a younger sister named Emily. Kendall went to college in Colorado and the first thing she recorded were disagreements with her roommate. In her freshman year, she decided to give YouTube a shot.
Initially Rae called her main channel Kendalls Place before changing it to Kendall Rae later. Kendall started in August 2012, but it wasn’t until 2017 that she began actively uploading content.
YouTube Career
Kendall began filming beauty and cosmetic videos, but soon moved on to discussing conspiracy theories and other true crime related content. Her content dives deep into well-known cases that generate a lot of attention.
Nowadays, people become obsessed with unsolved cases and disturbing topics. In addition, Kendall is really open and has shared personal problems such as her eating disorder and breast reduction surgery. Now, she has 3.87 million subscribers and her account has received over 719 million views!
Income Sources
The channel receives around 230,000 views every day but because her content is based on true crime her earnings per 1,000 views is below average. Assuming a $4 CPM, Kendall makes an estimated $27,000 per month from YouTube ad revenue.
That’s a cool $324,000 in annual revenue and this doesn’t include sponsorship deals from brands like Hello Fresh and Pretty Litter. Since her videos average well over 500,000 views, this allows her to get a brand deal for each one. Similar to other YouTubers, she runs a merch store at kendallrae.shop and owns higherlovewellness.com.
In addition, Kendall runs a podcast with her husband called Mile Higher Life, and it currently has 201,000 subscribers. Rae has also worked as an actress and made her television debut at 17 years old as a series regular on the Channel 9 Network’s The Shak.
Advocating for Missing Persons
Rae is a missing person advocate. In January 2017, she launched a series called ‘Where Is,’ where she retells the history of a missing person and covers everything about the case.
The series has gone down well with her followers and the first video investigated Madeleine McCann’s disappearance. The series really put her channel on the map and is one of the top creators in the space.
The majority of the videos get over a million views and most popular videos on her channel include “When Mean Girls Become Murders” and “Emma Walker: Tragically Murdered By Stalker Ex.”
Personal Life
In 2016, Kendall married her long-term partner, Josh Thomas. Josh has quit his job to assist Kendall full-time with her YouTube channel. The couple reside in a warm home in Denver, Colorado, have 15 pets, and are raising a kid together.
