Does Ivana Alawi still need gifts? For her followers, the answer is a capital “NO.” As one of the top YouTubers in the country, she reportedly earns millions every month and ranks as the 4th top YouTube channel in the Philippines with 18.5 million subscribers! She could even run for senator with the number of followers she has—haha.
Her followers also recall a vlog from 2023 where Ivana mentioned earning a million a day. But that was back in 2023—what year is it now? She also stated at the time that she didn’t join YouTube for the money, adding, “Pero guys, nagbabayad ako ng tax, di ko lang gusto i-disclose kasi baka sabihin [ng iba] ‘Ay, nagyayabang.’ Hindi, pero dahil tinatanong niyo nang tinatanong, ayan.”
In fact, the Kapamilya actress had previously revealed earning over P10 million in just a few hours of live selling, which went viral. In a recent interview at the TikTok Summit, she shared that she’s been doing live streams for over a year, probably about two years. “I’ve been doing livestreams for more than a year. Siguro two years. I’m not sure pero mga ganun,” she said. Ivana also mentioned that they could have earned even more than “eight digits,” but they ran out of stock. It’s impressive that they never run out of buyers, just stock—haha.
Her followers also reminded everyone that Ivana had said her TikTok earnings go towards supporting her family, while her earnings from acting and YouTube are invested in properties.
With all that in mind, netizens are wondering: Does Ivana really need to wait for gifts, especially when she’s already in a position to give back and support her family and fans?
