Top 50 Most Viewed YouTube Channels Worldwide • Week Of 08/23/2026

Anaya Kandhal has repeated as the #1 channel in the Global Top 50. The Indian kidfluencer is closing in on 75 million subscribers, and after collecting 958.8 million weekly views, she has brought her lifetime YouTube total above 116 billion. Not bad for a five-year-old. Compared to little Anaya, there are plenty of grown-ups populating the Global Top 50 as well. Channels that broke into the ranking at the start of the Shorts era are still going strong, and the most resilient chart-toppers find ways to stay adaptable. Visit Tubefilter for more great stories.
