While the above solution works great, the only problem is that it streams live videos so an internet connection is required to playback the video during the slideshow. If you plan to deliver a presentation without internet, take the following approach.
First download the YouTube video locally in either Windows Media or AVI format since PowerPoint doesn’t understand the default FLV or MP4 formats of YouTube.
Add YouTube videos for offline PowerPoint Presentations
You can either use Zamzar.com or MediaConverter.org to save any YouTube video as an AVI file – I prefer Media Converter since it supports in-browser conversion while Zamzar requires your email addressing where they send the link to converted video.

Once the video is saved as an AVI or WMV file on your computer, go to Insert –> Movie –> "Movie from file" to put the YouTube video in the current slide.
