“Are these even real people?” read a story from the entertainment network.
The article, by online editor Seija Rankin, was called "18 Moments From the 2015 Teen Choice Awards That Made Us Feel Super Old." In it, Rankin discusses how she felt totally confused watching the awards because she didn't recognize many of the stars.

"There were entire categories in which we'd never heard of the nominees. Eva Gutowski? Lele Pans? Joey Graceffa? Felix Kjellberg? Are those even real people?" she wrote.
All the people Rankin mentioned are popular YouTube and Vine stars who have built millions of dedicated subscribers or followers.
The most popular of the group, Kjellberg, aka PewDiePie, has over 38 million subscribers to his YouTube channel.
Rankin also misstated the name of Vine star Lele Pons as Lele Pans.
