What inspires you these days? Where does your passion for creating come from?
I usually say a video game or a famous person, but it’s been pretty different recently. I met someone named Erika Halpin (we won’t disclose info on her), who is quite an amazing person. She is such a unique individual that I couldn’t help but be impressed by her character. Erika works three jobs and a side gig, and my mind was blown. With all that time and stress, she still finds time to smile. Erika’s light shines bright for others who may be going through personal stuff, such as myself; she has inspired me to keep creating and to keep my head up (laughs).
What’s it like getting brand deals like Temu, Crafta Gifts, and Style My Card: Kingdom Hearts?
It’s very fun and different. Every company has a different product that is fun to talk about. I, for example, love and will cherish Crafta Gifts. That was fun. They made a toy out of me. That was so freaking cool that it made me happy. That and Kingdom Hearts. Style My Card reached out to me about doing a KH collab, and I was like This is something I’ve always wanted, so I need to say yes and see it through. It’s fun to find something you like that resonates with your image.
Where do you see social media headed? Is it dying or growing?
I’m going to say… It’s in a weird phase of streamers doing the same thing, and I feel it could stay in limbo for a while until someone changes the game. Time will tell, though. I don’t have much to say, seeing as I do skits and stay in my own world. But to anyone wanting to create, do something different? (laughs).

You have close to thirty thousand followers on TikTok. Is there anyone you want to work with, whether famous or not?
Famous people wise?… Vlog Squad, Tra-Rags, Long Beach Griffy, and a few others. I really don’t care for celebs. But for people who are not really into being famous. Such as friends or family, I will say Erika and Gardy for now. I don’t really have anyone else in mind. Kiki and I do everything on our own, so it’s kind of how we roll, but Erika and Gardy are funny, and maybe in some far-off future, I would love to do a skit with them.
Anything on Project Orange and Project Bruja?
No… Sadly, we are still in development, and I need anyone intrigued to please be patient. The story is laid out. There are other factors at play right now.
