Liza Koshy, best known for her larger-than-life presence and sense of humor on social media, is an American comedian, television host, and actress. Over the course of the last few years, she has hosted several live television events, demonstrated a natural talent for acting in film and developed a monumental following across all social media platforms.
Koshy jumpstarted her career in 2013 on the now-defunct social media platform ‘Vine’, where she amassed millions of followers with her creative sense of slapstick humor. In 2016, she moved her self-created content to YouTube and began to broaden her fan-base significantly. Her charismatic, side-spitting online presence would cause her to win several Streamy Awards and even a Teen Choice Award in 2017, earning the title of Choice Female Web Star. Koshy’s unforgettable personality also helped her to land her several roles in cinema, shortly after her YouTube channel gained popularity. Koshy made her acting debut as the character Violet Adams in the Hulu original horror series Freakish. Shortly thereafter, Koshy accepted several other roles in television and film.
Koshy has since hosted multiple live television events, including the live pre-show broadcast at the 2017 Golden Globes Awards. This event drew 2.7 million live viewers on Twitter, a record-breaking number at the time. As of April 2020, Liza Koshy has organically amassed over 17 million subscribers on YouTube, 18 million followers on Instagram, and 20 million followers on TikTok. Liza’s infectious personality and rise to internet fame has recently provided her the opportunity to star in and co-produce her own YouTube Premium series, Liza on Demand.
