Career

YouTube

Bisognin's videos on YouTube focus on fashion, beauty, make-up, DIY, books, movies, vlogs, haul and video gaming.[3][4] Although Italian, Bisognin speaks English in her videos, in order to have a larger target audience. Bisognin is signed to Maker Studio's sub-network, The Platform.[5]

CutiePieMarzia is one of the most popular beauty and makeup-oriented channels, as it attracts over 16 million viewers each month.[6] Additionally, Bisognin's channel is the most subscribed Italian YouTube channel.[7][8] Her channel earned over 2.2 million subscribers in 2014, the most for any Italian channel that year.[9] The demographics of Bisognin's viewers have been reported to be females aged 13–24, who use Bisognin's videos as a reference.[10] Additionally, Bisognin refers to her fans as "marzipans."[11]

Aside from creating content on her own channels, Bisognin has been a voice actress in various animated web series. She voiced Carrie the Carrot in Oscar's Hotel for Fantastical Creatures.[12] Bisognin also voiced the character Maya, based on her own dog, in a six-episode animated web series titled Pugatory.[13]

Other ventures

Her channel's success has allowed her to start designing her own clothing.[14] In 2014, she designed "Daisy" shoes through Project Shoe.[15]

In January 2015, Bisognin published a horror book titled La Casa Dei Sogni (Eng: Dream House).[16] Bisognin plans to release a young-adult paranormal novel in 2016, as well.[13]

Marketing

Bisognin and Felix Kjellberg (better known as PewDiePie), who have been in a relationship since 2011, have both amassed sizable followings. Their individual, as well as their combined popularity, has led to them landing ad deals. In 2014, the two were part of a marketing campaign for the horror film, As Above, So Below.[17] While Kjellberg's videos involved gaming-related topics, Bisognin's videos for the campaign centered around a travel vlog angle of the couple's trip to Paris.[18]

In October 2014, ABC used Bisognin, along with others, to promote their new series Selfie.[19]

Personal life

Marzia Bisognin was born on 21 October 1992 in Vicenza.[10][20]

Bisognin was introduced to PewDiePie's videos by friends who recommended that she watch "this idiot playing video games."[21] She began dating Kjellberg in 2011, after e-mailing him, and stating that she found his videos funny.[22] She then moved to Sweden, to live with him that October. They later moved to her native Italy, before settling together in Brighton, United Kingdom.[23][24][25] The two live along with their two pugs, Edgar and Maya.[26] Bisognin's relationship with Felix Kjellberg has been highlighted by various media outlets.[27] The Globe and Mail writes that Bisognin's "calm personality balances out PewDiePie's general wackiness."[28] Marzia has many tattoos including, "shy" on her forearm in typewriter font, a crescent moon on her left wrist, and a two music notes, a treble clef and a bass clef together that form a heart, and another on her right foot.
