Colleen Ballinger

Born on November 21, 1986, in Santa Barbara, California, Colleen’s journey towards stardom began in her early years. She built on her skills through participation in school plays, and performances at local events and realized that an entertainment career was what she wanted. In 2008, she ventured into the realm of online content creation. Ballinger performed at Disneyland, gave private coaching and piano lessons, and appeared in various theatrical productions before gaining recognition. She played Kelsi Nielsen in High School Musical at Candlelight Pavilion Dinner Theatre in Claremont, California.

Colleen created the persona of 'Miranda Sings', a hilariously awkward, off-key singer with an unshakable confidence in her talent. This alter ego would soon become a sensation, captivating audiences with her unique brand of comedic music performances. Her portrayal of 'The Disco Dancer' in season 3 of the web series 'Escape the Night' and her cameo in the animated film 'Ralph Breaks the Internet' were some of her first experiments in long-form content. Her collaboration with Flula Borg on the track "Clouds" in 2015 and her feature in the Ariana Grande music video "Thank U, Next" showcased her ability in the musical world as well. Additionally, Colleen ventured into the realm of publishing with the release of two best-selling books, "Selp-Helf" (2015) and "My Diarrhe" (2018), both written from Miranda's perspective. Colleen has been nominated for multiple awards for her contributions to the realm of social media. She won the Best Actress Streamy Award and the Teen Choice Comedy Web Star award in 2015.

Colleen has faced controversies, including allegations from former fans who claimed that she sent nude photos from a sex worker and posted unverified, troubling text messages. Colleen has also faced criticism for her older videos satirizing Latina and overweight women, agreeing that they were insensitive and apologizing for having posted them. In June 2023, YouTuber Kodee Tyler Dahl, another former fan, posted a video showing "purported screenshots" of a group chat of Ballinger participating with minors, including McIntyre, then about 15, where he asked for suggestions for an upcoming Q&A on his YouTube channel. Dahl's video led to renewed accusations by McIntyre and allegations by other former fans and employees, including of racial insensitivity on the set of Haters Back Off. Ballinger later posted a response video, partly in song, accompanying herself on the ukulele. She admitted that she had made mistakes but denied being a groomer and called the accusations "lies" and "gossip ... made up for clout".

According to multiple sources, Colleen has an estimated net worth of $10 million as of October 2023. Colleen Ballinger has amassed a substantial net worth through various income streams, including revenue from her YouTube channel, acting roles, live performances, and book sales.
