Born in Riverside, California, Paytas was raised in Illinois before relocating to Los Angeles in her teens. After moving, she became a stripper and began acting on the side, primarily as an extra. She went on to appear in a number of music videos for artists including Eminem and Amy Winehouse. In 2006, Paytas created blndsundoll4mj, a lifestyle-oriented YouTube vlog channel, and in 2014, she created a companion' channel, TrishasLife, later Trisha Paytas, which featured personal vlog videos. Following the success of several viral videos, Paytas garnered a significant following on her main channel, reaching 100,000 subscribers in 2012 and 1,000,000 in 2014. As of May 2020, she has accumulated roughly 4.88 million subscribers and roughly 1.7 billion lifetime views.

Her other endeavors include authoring several self-published books, modeling for lingerie and fetish photoshoots, guest appearances in various television shows and films, and her own perfume, eponymously titled Trish.

Early life

Paytas was born in Riverside, California,[5] to Frank and Lenna (née Kant).[6] Her parents divorced when she was three years old,[citation needed] after which she moved with her mother to Illinois. Paytas was raised outside Rockford, Illinois in the city of Freeport.[7] From 1996 to 2003, she lived in Byron.[citation needed] At 15, Paytas relocated to California to live with her father and brother, and enrolled in a Catholic online school program.[8] She returned to Illinois to live with her mother at age 16, attending high school in Pecatonica.[8] She graduated from Pecatonica High School in 2006, where she was a cheerleader, and moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting the day after her graduation.[citation needed]

Career

2006–2012: Beginnings on YouTube

After moving to Los Angeles to pursue acting, Payatas began doing professional lingerie modeling and worked as a stripper and an escort to support herself.[9] She attempted to break the world's fastest-talker record on Guinness World Records Unleashed, but was unable to break the record. In 2006, Paytas made her first television appearance as a correspondent to Greg Behrendt on The Greg Behrendt Show. She appeared on the show for its full thirteen–episode run before it was cancelled after only airing one season. The following year in 2007 she appeared on the second season of Who Wants to Be a Superhero?.[10] Paytas played "Ms. Limelight". She was on the show for four episodes although she was eliminated from the competition portion of the show on the third episode. On January 3, 2007, Paytas started her YouTube channel "blndsundoll4mj". The channel was originally dedicated to movie director Quentin Tarantino, whom Trisha idolized, but soon after being created, Paytas began to focus on other types of videos.
