Wil Lising Dasovich (born August 26, 1991) is a Filipino-American television personality, model, and vlogger. He is known for his vlogs on YouTube. In television, he has appeared on various shows, but most notably on Pinoy Big Brother.
Personal life
Born in California, United States to an American father, merchant mariner Steve Dasovich and a Filipino mother, interior designer Charry Dasovich. Wil was raised in San Francisco, California where he grew up with Zac Effron long before the latter became a Hollywood actor.[3][4]
Stay in the Philippines
After graduation from college in 2013, Wil travelled around Asia for three months. When he came to the Philippines, he decided to stay to learn its language and culture after growing a fondness for his Filipino roots. In an interview, he said:
Back in California, I grew up in a predominantly white community with no Filipinos around. But being half Filipino I became so intrigued with the language and culture; spending entire days and nights reading and memorising words. I, then, made the decision to stay in the Philippines for at least a year, and not leave the country until I was 100 % fluent in Tagalog.
During the same year, while having lunch in [[Greenbelt (Ayala Center)}Greenbelt]] in Makati, he was discovered and offered a job to be a fashion model.[5]
YouTube
While learning the local language, Dasovich also started writing episodes of "The Art of Tagalog." After a year of writing, he began filming videos of him learning Filipino.[6]
Wil rose to popularity when his videos with his father Steve Dasovich speaking gay lingo or "bekinese" went viral.[7][8] He has grown the audience of his vlog since then. His vlog features different aspects of Filipino culture he discovers in his strolls around the country .[9]
WilNina
At the peak of the popularity of their tandem, Wil Dasovich and fellow YouTuber Janina Vela appeared together in a YouTube Fanfest in Manila. The tandem has produced several collaboration videos of mostly food reviews and interviews with one another. [10][11]
#VlogSquad
Dasovich started the "#VlogSquad" (vlog squad) with Daniel Marsh and Coraleen Waddell. The three have appeared together in travel vlogs on their respective YouTube channels. Dasovich's sister, Hayley and fellow Big Brother housemate Baninay Bautista came as later additions to the squad.
Big Brother
Wil became a "housemate" of the thirteenth season of Pinoy Big Brother after a successful third audition. He had previously attempted to enter the show, but failed to make it to the cut twice.[12]
