Ian Andrew Hecox Net Worth: Ian Andrew Hecox is an American YouTube celebrity and comedian who has a net worth of $3 million. Ian Andrew Hecox was born in November 1987 in Sacramento County, California. He is best known as one half of the comedy sketch duo Smosh. Smosh started publishing YouTube videos in 2005.
As of November 2016, Smosh had over 22 million subscribers and 6 billion views. Their channel on YouTube was the most-subscribed channel three times in a row. Smosh released comedy music albums in 2010 and If Music Were Real in 2010 and 2011, respectively. Hecox has produced several series including Ask Charlie, Smosh Pit Weekly, El Smosh, Zombies vs. Ninjas: The Web Series, Samurai! Daycare, Oishi High School fight, shut up! , 16 High School, Honest Game Trailer, Part Time and Smosh Babies. In 2014, he won the Steamy Best Game Series Award for Smosh Games. Every year, Smosh earns between $7 and $10 million from various entertainment activities. That’s enough to make them one of the highest paid celebrities on YouTube. Smosh was acquired in 2011 by Alloy Digital (which eventually evolved into Defy Media) in an all-stock deal. Anthony Padilla left Smosh in June 2017. In November 2018, Defy Media closed. In response to the company’s collapse, Anthony released a YouTube video in which he finally revealed how much he hated working at Defy, and how he and Hecox sold all of Smosh’s stock (with no cash), promising that the company would eventually go public (which it never has). While they were working at Defy, they were all getting good salaries, but didn’t benefit from Smosh’s huge success.
