YouTube Rewind 2018: Everyone Controls Rewind (also known as YouTube Rewind 2018) is a video that was uploaded to the official channel of the video-sharing website YouTube on December 6, 2018, as the ninth installment of the YouTube Rewind series. The video features references to video games and internet culture, starring YouTubers such as Ninja and Marques Brownlee, as well as celebrities like Will Smith and Trevor Noah.

YouTube Rewind 2018 was panned by critics, YouTubers, and viewers alike, who dubbed it the worst YouTube Rewind video to date. The video was criticized for the inclusion of unpopular or outdated trends and the exclusion of many prominent YouTubers of the year, as well as rivalries such as KSI vs Logan Paul and PewDiePie vs T-Series. By December 13, 2018, a week after its upload, Everyone Controls Rewind had over 10 million dislikes, making it the most-disliked video on YouTube of all time, a record that was previously held by the music video for Justin Bieber's "Baby" for over seven years.
