I had to look up the VlogStar stuff. Their website is defunct, their twitter hasn't had a post in 3 years, and no, there was never a volume 2 released...

I followed the advice in that booklet, and I've already been told to take my life twice! Thanks Ashens!

I love when Ashens does horror. It's always on that line between funny and genuinely creepy.

"Brother dear, let me in, I have your wedding spoon." Fantastic.

That mask sketch is genuinely my favourite part

I never thought I'd see a video of an English man stick a giant red finger into the mouth of a slightly blurry mask of Prince William, but here we are.

Those eight cars WERE really cheap, but at least they were being really *transparent* about it.

You gave Poundland your email address? Madman.

That extending finger is PERFECT for turning off my Fu**ing smoke alarm on the ceiling you can't bloody reach!

I love how this began as a goofy royal wedding poundshop video and suddenly became Ashen's Commentary On Good Advice And Counter-Advice For Making A KZfaq Channel (And Also Tiny Toy Cars).

That masked prince William video genuinely scared the shit out of me

I was more excited for this then the actual wedding

Omg it feels so long since we had a poundland special 😍

I just checked on Amazon and found the Vlog Star book for 36$. So it must have fallen pretty far if it's in Poundland.

Those long barcodes are so practical yet so surreal

The first example in that Vlog Star book says "I'd love to inspire millions", and the next one reads "I'd love to achieve over 500 views". Way to stay consistent about your aspirations there.

I reckon the vlogger manual followed the standard Asda > The Works > Poundland > Bin path.

The last tweet by @Vlog_Star was in December 2015.

Ashens likes Bob Ross, my life is now complete.

This is the most British title I’ve ever seen.

I swear I walked into poundland, and saw them, it actually terrified me with their soulless eyes

Cheers for the shout out my man :D

Can you get more british than a tea spoon with a picture of the Royal wedding?

*Fun fact: RE: "raspberries are blue now for some reason"* The blue raspberry flavoring we all know and love (or don't love) is actually based on a real variety of raspberry, the Whitebark Raspberry. They appear bluish in color (in comparison to most raspberries) and the flavoring is meant to imitate their specific taste. ☄ _The more you know~_ ☄

When that mask appeared, I began hoping that he would wear it. Moments later, tears of joy. ...And probably fear.

_"Behind every successful KZfaqr is an IKEA bookcase."_ -Ashens, 2018

British royalty marrying a divorced American sounds like a reality TV show in the making.

I think America's fascination with the Royal family stems from our buried desire as a culture to be embraced by the Queen's loving arms again like a dysfunctional mother/child relationship.

Mum: What did you do at uni today? Me: I watched a 40 year old man talk for half an hour about cheap stuff

I've been watching Ashens for like 4 or 5 years, and He never ceases to make me cry laughing, I don't know if I'm the only one, But his humor is just too good.

ngl, as a kid I would of loved those little translucent cars; I did, and still do, love translucent plastic stuff, idk why

16:43 "Tweet us! We will not respond, because we've already gone bust, probably." This aged well.

I was hoping he would make a Poundland special video! Especially with the royal wedding going on. Make more Ashens you're funny and cute!

Do NOT use a spoon to depress a tounge to stop someone from choking to death. Simply tilt the head backwards and roll the person on their side, unless they are actively seizing. In that case, put some padding underneath their head and remove any dangerous objects. Do not attempt to restrain them. Observe their seizure. If this happened for the first time, or to a stranger, call emergency services. Likewise, if it looks different from usual or results in any injury, call EMS. If a person is unconscious or stopped seizing, turn them onto their side with the head tilted backwards and the chin slightly forward as described above. Monitor breathing consistently. Call EMS. If breathing either ceases or starts to sound weird, make sure the airway is visibly clear. If it is, and breathing still doesn't sound normal (slow, deep breaths with a frequency of less than 2 per 10 seconds are a classic example for agonal breathing; this is NOT sufficient), loudly call for help and immediately begin chest compressions; center of chest, push in hard and fast, roughly a third of the way in. Ribs may break, but continue and call EMS immediately. In doubt, always opt for chest compressions rather than other methods. Ribs heal. This public safety announcement was brought to you by A bored first aid educator who was triggered by the 'tounge in mouth' comment in a silly comedy video and feared it may accidentally reinforce outdated beliefs.

When we leave EU we will be allowed to create our own sad onion equillivant... there should be a national design competition for it.

How to be a VlogStar Step 1: Record yourself being a generally unlikeable person Step 2: ??? Step 3: *YOU DID IT!*

Meghan a nice lady? Well this video aged fine like a milk.

Hell yes, I’ve been waiting for this

Seeing Google+ mentioned in that book was such a throwback - Truly a mark of 2015 indeed.

I rung the tat bell ages ago so now I get accosted each time a new tat video hits the presses.. lovely.

Are sure that first picture was William, not Mike Jeavons?

I’m sure if Harry had his way it would’ve been a secret, private ceremony and all this tat could’ve been avoided!

This is literally my favourite god damn part about the royal wedding. There’s nothing quite like the royal wedding tat, bless you for you service, Ashens.

Okay, maybe I'm just ignorant, but I have a serious question... What does the Royal Family actually do? What does the Queen actually accomplish in her day-to-day life? I hear so much about her, and the family, but it appears that they just do their own thing while an entirely separate group of people actually controls the country.

I have one of those phone tripods, and they're a lot more cheaply made than you'd think. Like, a LOT more.

I've noticed a lot less people, at least where I live are showing any real interest in this wedding compared to previous big royals getting married.

Ashens, I've been watching you for some time now but have never seen the "studio" in which you shoot these great videos. Today, I got a glance at your workshop through a glint of light in the reflection of a spoon. I can die happy now.

Ashens, I gotta say I appreciate your input on the KZfaq pro-tips, taken with a grain of salt, along with the printed tips, there are some real gems in there.

Kim Kardashian didn't serve in Afghanistan as an Apache Pilot. That would make her show more bearable to watch though.

In America, "Poundland" is a very different type of place. Also, Salad Fingers.

I live in Australia, and my mother had a Royal Wedding viewing party, where she and her friends played “royal wedding bingo”

"it's ya boi Ashens" i'm so glad i got to experice that.

R.I.P. Ashen's hopes and dreams. Cause of death: Being lied to about a tripod being included in a cheap vlogger kit.

"Socks stuffed with mince and brought to life by dark magic" Camilla?

"Never tie your shoelace in a revolving door." Truely the best advice I have ever recieved.

Someone linked to one of your other videos on reddit, and I'm glad they did. Three videos later and I'm subscribed. You have a delightful sense of humour, good writing skill, pacing.

Incase your sexual partner bites? What is she a zebra or something?

Well, guess bed can wait another 25 minutes lol

The Black and White sketch made me cry with laughter! 😂

The only Royal Wedding coverage I appreciate.

Came for the Royal tat, Stayed for real KZfaq advice.

So I checked out the Vlog_Star twitter for shits and giggles. They havent updated since 2015. Amazing.

I had to pause the video at the "I have your wedding spoooon!" bit I was laughing so much.

Man I forgot how much I love this channel

that bell doesn't work either, i clicked it for a couple channels and yet i haven't been notified for a month or more of their videos. i get them in my sub feed like normal but after the first few times i don't get the bell notifications anymore. good ol youtube

There was only 1 volume of Vlog Star Released, and the last ever tweet they made was on December 1st, 2015

I was on the Norwich train talking to Stuart about this video and that awful spoon, was a little star struck to be honest, brilliant tat video as usual 😊

Love the black and white scary bit. Nice.

I literally don’t know any family members or friends who gave a toss about the royal wedding, half of them had it on the TV just as something to put on in the background in anticipation of the FA cup final.

The Royal wedding was the greatest thing to happen in my life! Oh wait I couldn't have cared less about it my bad

Alright, Ashens. You've convinced me to go get a bowl of Shreddies and watch this at 2am. You win.

I've been waiting for this video ever since I heard of the wedding.

I wanted to go to sleep... 100% chance that Ashens uploaded.

14:36-14:43 Is Ashens throwing that shade at Jake and Logan Paul? Cuz I'm living for that.

LOLOL! I LOVE Angry Ashens! Seriously, this is one of the best videos you've ever put out Stuart!

This channel was actually one of the few that I "rang the bell" or turned on notifications for before you mentioned it. I care about my subscriptions equally, but channels like this one are more equal than others.

This is the first big British event I've got to experience while living in the UK and my god do people love naff tat with the royal's faces on them

I quit caring about Royal weddings in 1776. *[sick 'Murica electric guitar riff]*

I was expecting an Ashens video immediately after seeing some Royal Wedding junk here in America at a store. Good on you.

That black and white part of the video was awsome and at the same time creepy cool man cool

20:05 You know something is outdated as hell when it mentions Google+ as an example social media platform

I’m a Brit and I don’t love the Royals or Kardashian. Normal people do exist. Ish.

I can't stop laughing. I have your wedding spooon!

Damn, you were cracking me up in this one:)

It's kinda funny how royal weddings are such a huge topic in britain but in america i just now learned that the queen has family members and isn't a magical old lady who lives in a giant castle inside of big ben edit: i don't know why i was ashamed of this

Hahahaha

Thank you Ashens Just rang the bell ! DING DING DING !

Intresting to see the reflections from the spoon. We can see what's behind you, kind of :P

Dark magic sock mint: The greatest ruler in the history of you British folk in your weird hobbitesque fantasy land, and the only one an American like me will probably remember. I am partially sarcastic, but I honestly have no clue how many royal people are still left unmarried, and I'm pretty sure that they can't get away with polygamy, so how many more royal weddings can there be?

Ah, look who's appearing in his own video via reflective surface...

I forgot to comment yesterday, but I just want to say this video was a great birthday gift.

THE HORROR BIT WAS AMAZING

Tax payers dont have to pay for a Kardashin wedding

It may be because I’m american, but I swear to god I thought was Jared Fogle in the thumbnail

I saw these masks in Poundworld and was waiting for this!

Impeccable craftsmanship.

This again? I thought we learned from last time- I guess that means someone is buying these. Oh Wait- LOL

O ok

I was drinking lemonade and when you said they married socks shoved with mints, it squirted out of my nose!

Awesome video as always
