Shane Lee Yaw (born July 19, 1988), known professionally as Shane Dawson, is an American YouTuber, actor, writer, comedian, director, make-up artist, and musician. Strange, witty and Genre Savvy, his ability to mock himself and others and his comedic skills have led to a massive following. He rose to prominence making edgy sketch comedy videos, where he played both fictionalised versions of himself and an assortment of strange, mentally ill characters, many of whom are inspired by people he knew. His content has evolved, however, with a phase of trying out Internet tips and hacks and discussing scary real-life stories and conspiracy theories, but has shifted again to making multi-part documentary-style series where he and his friends hang out and share fun and meaningful experiences, and other videos where he tries to reach out to lost connections in his life. His fascination with the paranormal, too, shifted, being explored with ghost-hunting videos, which serve as part of the fun and meaningful experiences.

His channel is here , though he has a second channel that hasn't been touched in over two years.

He's also starred in the horror movie Smiley with several other YouTube stars, and is also one of the regulars of the Fine Brothers' YouTubers React. Dawson directed and starred in his own movie, Not Cool, the making of which was documented on The Chair (2014). He hates both of them and makes jokes about it when they're brought up.

Though Shane's old videos are well documented here, much of the page portrays Shane's old content (such as his skits, character comedy, and food videos) as recent while he's made new content that needs more coverage here. As such, this page Needs Wiki Magic Love.
