PewDiePie Biography
PewDiePie is one of the most popular and richest YouTube Star who was born on October 24, 1989 in Gothenburg, Sweden. He won a Most Popular Social Show web personality award that fellow internet star Jenna Marbles was also nominated for.
Felix Arvid Ulf Kjellberg (/ˈ ʃ ɛ l b ɜːr ɡ / SHEL -burg, Swedish: [ˈfěːlɪks ˈǎrːvɪd ɵlf ˈɕɛ̂lːbærj] ( listen ) ; born 24 October 1989), better known as PewDiePie (/ˈ p juː d iː p aɪ / PEW -dee-py), is a Swedish YouTuber, comedian, and philanthropist, known primarily for his Let’s Play videos and comedic formatted shows.
Kjellberg originally registered a YouTube account under the name “Pewdie” in 2006; he explained that “pew” represents the sound of lasers and “die” refers to death. After forgetting the password to this account, he registered the “PewDiePie” YouTube channel on 29 April 2010. Following his exit from Chalmers, his parents refused to financially support him, and as a result, he funded his early videos by selling prints of his Photoshop art, as well as working at a hot dog stand. Kjellberg stated that the ability to make videos was more important to him than a prestigious career. Five years later, Kjellberg recalled, “I knew people were big at other types of videos, but there was no one big in gaming, and I didn’t know you could make money out of it. It was never like a career that I could just quit college to pursue. It was just something I loved to do.”
He was born to Lotta Kristine Johanna and Ulf Christian Kjellberg and raised alongside his sister Fanny. He began a relationship with Marzia Kjellberg in 2011 and later moved to Italy to share a home with her and their two pugs. They became engaged on April 27, 2018 and they married in August 2019.
He used his internet popularity to raise funds for such charities as the World Wildlife Foundation and St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. In 2015, he released a parody self-help book called This Book Loves You. In October 2018, he released a music video for his song “Bitch Lasagna” and it became the most viewed video on his YouTube channel.
Kjellberg was born on 24 October 1989, in Gothenburg, Sweden, where he was also raised. He was born to Lotta Kristine Johanna (née Hellstrand, born 7 May 1958) and Ulf Christian Kjellberg (born 8 January 1957), and grew up with his older sister Fanny. His mother, a former CIO, was named the 2010 CIO of the Year in Sweden. His father is also a corporate executive.
