In this article, not only did Bethany Mota, famous youtuber, say, "Talk to my team," , when offered by CBS to be in a movie cameo, her representatives came back to CBS with a $250,000 fee. This article is actually about how Youtubers are getting corrupted by the money part of the business. The event involving Mota was simply a fishing pole reeling in readers.
In about the tenth paragraph it said "Two years ago, YouTube was still predominantly a do-it-yourself kind of place. But then the video platform decided to allow all content producers (instead of just some) to share in ad sales. "
The first half of the article following the read just talked about how all of this happened and how shocked CBS is. Only the ending half included other Youtubers in the same situations, having agents and managers and publicists and what not.
So technically no, if someone had not read all of the article they might have expected it to be just Bethany but it is in fact many video stars who do this.
