Career
=YouTube=
Chamberlain became dissatisfied with high school toward the end of her sophomore year, and after speaking with her father she was encouraged to find a passion outside of school. On June 14, 2016, she launched her YouTube channel as a way to find that passion. As of August 2023, her YouTube channel had reached 12 million subscribers and accumulated a total of 1.61 billion video views.{{Cite web |title=emma chamberlain - YouTube |url=https://www.youtube.com/@emmachamberlain/about |access-date=2023-09-24 |website=www.youtube.com}} Chamberlain's content included cooking videos, fashion "hauls" (bulk purchases of typically cheap clothing items), car vlogs, collaborations with fellow Youtubers, among others.
