![Viral Video Stars: Where Are They Now? [COMIC]](https://helios-i.mashable.com/imagery/archives/00Y9iYih2lNTwG1Pfckg3Sd/hero-image.fill.size_1248x702.v1647019617.jpg)
Web video superstardom can be a cruel mistress. One day your kazoo-based cover of an NKOTB classic is totally crushing it in the blogosphere, the next you're kicked to the curb by an adorable three-legged cat who is surprisingly good at roulette.

This comic was illustrated by Kiersten Essenpreis, a New York-based artist who draws and blogs at YouFail.com.
