PewDiePie: early life, education and career

PewDiePie or Felix was born on October 24, 1989 in Gothenburg, Sweden, making his nationality Swedish. He was born to his Swedish parents Lotta Kristine Johanna and Ulf Christian Kjellberg. He also has a sister. As a child, he had a lot of trouble succeeding academically, often skipping schools to play video games at home. But he somehow graduated from Göteborgs Högre Samskola and then went to Chalmers University of Technology in Sweden to study industrial economics and technology management.

However, he did not complete his college degree as he dropped out and started selling hot dogs at a restaurant while also making game videos. As his interest was also in Photoshop, he often entered photoshop contests which led to a job offer in Scandinavia which he turned down. Eventually, he sold his Photoshop prints to buy a computer where he would later make videos.

In the year 2010, Pewdiepie made his first online video that was about a video game itself. The content on Pewdiepie’s channel was primarily related to video games and his unfiltered comments while he played those games. By the year 2012, PewDiepie reached one million subscribers. Their content has often been abrasive, honest, and yet controversial, generating a lot of news. Similarly, in 2013 he had about 6 million subscribers and finally 10 million became the most subscribed YouTube user. It even beat YouTubers like Jenna Marbles, Smosh and many others on the list.

By 2016, his channel had gained 50 million subscribers, making his channel the first channel to do so. His channel’s content has changed after that and Pewdiepie makes less video game commentary videos while focusing on other types of videos that include reactions and humorous content.

PewDiePie: girlfriend and personal life

PewDiePie’s personal life is quite an interesting story as is his career rise and previous life. The Youtuber is in a relationship with his Italian girlfriend named Marzia Bisognin whom he met through a mutual friend in 2011 and established an online friendship. Eventually, they fell in love with her and Pewdiepie flew to Italy to meet her. The two had to shuffle their time between Sweden and Italy to get to know each other until Marzia moved with him to Sweden, where they shared a small apartment together.

Later, after PewDiePie’s YouTube success, the two moved to Brighton, Sussex, England, where he had to change two apartments for being too noisy during his recording sessions. PewDiePie announced his engagement to his girlfriend Marzia in 2018 after proposing a trip to Yokohama, Japan.
