If you name yourself Gigi Gorgeous, you'd have to be pretty damn confident. You have to be certain of at least one thing: that you can live up to the name. Gigi Gorgeous, aka Giselle Lazzarato, born Gregory Lazzarato, is both of those things: scorchingly beautiful and supremely powerful. At only 25 years old, with a million YouTube subscribers and 2.5 million Instagram followers, Gigi has the world at her feet.
Only a few scraps of information are known about her early childhood in Canada, apart from the fact that she was a nationally ranked diving champion while she was a teenager. She identified as a gay male when she moved to George Brown College to study fashion, but by that time her YouTube videos of makeup tutorials were already exploding in popularity. She left college to focus on those, and by 2013 was legally, physically, and spiritually a female.
