Biography

MissJirachi in 2017

MissJirachi is of Lebanese descent through her father.^[2]

MissJirachi started to create videos dedicated to the Pokémon universe^[3] on YouTube when she was 15.

In 2014, she partnered with YouTuber David Lafarge, her boyfriend.^[4] The couple collaborated on more than 1200 videos,^[5] in relation with Pokémon themes, but also on other subjects.^[6][7] Their success is due to the fact they integrated lifestyle YouTuber culture, as well as personal stories in their videos. They often evoked their life as a couple.

In February 2016, as another YouTuber asked her what was the point in creating a TV reality show dedicated to their life couple, MissJirachi explained that her fans identified to them because they seemed "normal", a fact that a more elaborate staging might have spoiled.^[4] David Lafarge indicated that on a marketing level, videos tagged done as they were a couple seemed to have better results.

David Lafarge announced their separation on 2 December 2017,^[8] while still making videos at her home where he lived.^[9]

In 2017, she was chosen by L'Oreal to take part in an online campaign on the theme of women and science.^[10][11]

The French television network Gulli hired her for the Aaaaahhh !!! Le jeu qui vous met la tête à l'envers show.^[12]
