How much can you make if you hit it big on YouTube? A whole lot of money. And one star from Toronto is cashing in thanks to her years of hard work building up her channel and following.

Forbes ranked YouTube's 10 highest paid creators today and Toronto's Lilly Singh, or IISuperwomanII on the 'Tube, came in third. She reportedly made $7.5 million last year (in the past 12 months, ending in June).

Singh has more than 10 million subscribers who tune into her comedic videos where she often portrays multiple characters and also dances and raps.
