As you might say, Ryan is one of the biggest One Direction fans on YouTube. This is one of his many reaction videos. He reacts to the songs of One Direction‘s fifth album, Made In The A.M., as he listens to it for the first time.

Ryan talks about the MTV Video Music Awards, which was hosted by Miley Cyrus in August. Ryan adores Miley, but he explains that he’ll always choose Nicki before anyone. He talks about the controversy that Miley kind of dissed Nicki and Nicki “totally slayed” her with the now very popular “Miley, what’s good?” sentence.

This video is actually pretty sad. The young YouTuber reads homophobic comments, which were left under multiple of his videos. The comments are really not nice at all and the people who wrote them should be ashamed.
7. REACTING TO DRAG ME DOWN BY ONE DIRECTION

This is not a typical reaction video, as you might expect. In this video, Ryan shows us a few types of fangirls (hyperventilating fangirl, Larry shipper, fake fangirl, Zayn stan and much more) and how they can possibly react to the song.
6. PERFECT ONE DIRECTION MUSIC VIDEO (DRUNK REACTION)

The 1D’s Perfect music video was released one day after Ryan’s 21st birthday, so Ryan had an idea. He got drunk and then watched the new video and filmed himself reacting to it. (Just a little tip for you; it’s not good to get drunk and then do anything that is related to One Direction in any way.)
5. HOMOPHOBICALLY HARASSED AT DISNEYLAND

In this video, Ryan talks about the day he and his friends went to Disneyland (because they really love Disneyland and live quite near, so they can basically go there whenever they want) and some were being really homophobic towards him. People started being really rude to them, pushed them, laughed at them and the Disneyland staff didn’t do anything at first. In our opinion, this kind of evil shouldn’t be happening in the world. We hope that people will realize it really, really soon.
4. PERFECT BY ONE DIRECTION (REACTION)

Ryan filmed himself reacting to the single Perfect by One Direction when it first came out. Ryan, we feel you.
3. GOODBYE ZAYN MALIK…

This video was filmed on a fatal day, 25.03.2015, when the world found out that Zayn Malik left One Direction. The young YouTuber talks about how he feels about it and trust us, our eyes teared up watching this video again.
2. IF ONE DIRECTION WAS SIRI

Ryan got the idea that it would be god if he showed the internet how would Siri react if he was One Direction. Basically, Ryan asks his cell phone questions and his phones answer with pieces of 1D songs!
1. IF NICKI MINAJ WAS SIRI

Basically the same as the previous video – Ryan filmed a video how would Siri react with Nicki Minaj songs. That showed up to be a brilliant idea since it’s not just his most viewed video of 2015, but his most viewed video ever!
We wish Ryan lots of success in 2016!
