TRISHA PAYTAS | Before They Were Famous | Biography
Before They Were Famous - A podcast by Michael McCrudden

Trisha Paytas grew up with a half brother and half-sister in both California and Illinois. Her parents divorced when she was just three years old, after which her Dad moved halfway across the country, leaving young Trisha feeling abandoned for years. Eventually, she would end up bouncing between mom and dad's houses, but wherever she went, she was bullied relentlessly. In high school, she was the victim of some pretty vicious rumours, but through it all, she remained dedicated to acting and performing. Eventually, she had won over the approval of her peers, being voted the most likely to become famous. But her journey to stardom was rough. She struggled for years, even becoming a call girl and stripper to pay the bills. Eventually, she would find herself appearing on TV and on music videos, and blowing up as a YouTuber, getting millions of views doing some pretty ridiculous stuff.
