She has won a Shorty Award and five Streamy Award nominations for Nerdy Nummies. She was listed first on Forbes' Top Influencers: Food list in 2017.

Early in her career, Pansino appeared in minor television roles and the reality series Scream Queens (2010); she later went on to star in the YouTube Premium series Escape the Night (2018–2019) and host the HBO Max series Baketopia (2021). She independently released her debut single "Perfect Together" in 2015.

Early life

[edit]

Rosanna Jeanne Reardon was born on June 8, 1985[2][3] in Seattle, Washington, where she was raised alongside her younger sister Molly Lu.[4] She is of Italian, Croatian, German, and Irish ancestry.[5] Throughout her childhood, she was known by friends and family as a "nerdy", "awkward" kid, and in school struggled with dyslexia.[6][7] She originally wanted to become an actress[8] and, after attending Pacific Lutheran University, she moved to Los Angeles to pursue acting.[6] At one stage, Pansino was a teacher.[9]

Pansino's interest in cooking was inspired by her father and grandmother,[10] and she stated in 2014 that "...baking has always been a hobby of mine. I have always loved being creative with my food and making themed sweets for my friends."[11]

YouTube career

[edit]

Pansino began her YouTube channel in 2010 after she was encouraged by a few of her friends who also worked on YouTube and had started making videos to get more comfortable in front of a camera.[12] After her early baking videos gained a steady following, viewers eventually started to request more.[13] Because she had never seen a baking show on television or the Internet, Pansino decided to create the Nerdy Nummies series. She decided to use the last name "Pansino" online, which was her mother's maiden last name.[14] She later revealed that in her early years of YouTube while she had still worked as an actress that she had to choose between acting or YouTube, the ultimatum given by her agent.[8] She remained adamant that she would not quit YouTube, despite the risks being taken at the time.[15] Pansino told Cosmopolitan in 2015: "At this point, I wasn't making any money on YouTube. I knew that it was possible to do that but I wasn't making a dime. I decided, I'm going to do this. I'm not going to let YouTube go."

As of November 2022, Pansino's channel has attained over 4.2 billion views and 14 million subscribers, making it the most popular cooking channel on YouTube.[16][17] She has since received several accolades; in 2013, she won the Shorty Award for Best Foodie, Chef, or Food Lover in Social Media.[18] She has also received five Streamy Award nominations for her work on Nerdy Nummies.[18][19][20][21][22][23] In 2018, Pansino officially reached 10 million subscribers on YouTube, so she was given a Diamond Play Button by the company.[24] According to CNBC and Forbes,[25] Pansino has remained one of the highest-paid YouTubers, reporting her to have made seven figures each year through sponsorships and advertisements.[26] Commenting on her success in an interview with Business Insider in 2014, she stated: "I've never thought about how to make a video go viral. From the very beginning I have always wanted to use YouTube to better myself and share things I enjoy with the world. If others want to join me on that journey I am happy to have them as viewers."[16]

Pansino has collaborated with several other YouTubers, including iJustine,[27][28] the Merrell Twins,[29] Rebecca Zamolo,[30] and MatPat.[31] She was among other YouTubers who appeared in MrBeast's 2021 "$1,000,000 Influencer Tournament".[32][33] Pansino has since become critical of MrBeast due to allegations against him related to an unsafe work environment.[34] In October 2024, she criticized the Lunchly kits for containing moldy cheese.[35]

She has been noted for her consistent upload schedule, not having missed a single date since creating her channel.[36] She stated in an interview with Forbes that "I don't want to miss an upload; I'm just not going to do that to my community, they've shown up for me and been so supportive of me, and in exchange I've been there for them—there's always going to be a video waiting for them on Saturday. It's this relationship and bond that I never wanted to break and I'm really proud that I haven't because it has been difficult at times." For the upcoming future, she said that she hoped to "be making baking videos until I'm 90 years old."[36] In 2021, she said in a Forbes interview "that around 60 hours of work go into a typical cooking video," due to the amount of time needed to experiment, assemble, bake, and film.[36]

Other activities

[edit]

As an actress, Pansino appeared on Season 2 of VH1's Scream Queens, a reality series in which the prize was a role in one of the Saw films; she ended in 9th place.[37] Following this, Pansino appeared in small roles on shows such as Parks and Recreation and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation.[8] She voiced the role of Violet in the animated web series Broken Quest in 2013.[16] In 2015, she made a cameo in the music video for "Dessert" by Dawin ft Silentó. In 2016, she had a recurring voice role for the television series Emo Dad and also guest starred in the Disney Channel series Bizaardvark as herself.[38] Pansino starred in the third season of YouTube Red's Escape the Night as The Jet Setter in 2018, and in the fourth season as The Socialite in 2019. Pansino and the rest of the cast for both the third and fourth season were nominated for Streamy Awards.[39][40] In 2023, she guest-starred as a wedding planner on NCIS: Los Angeles, which she described as a "dream come true".[41][42]

Pansino is a classically trained singer.[43] She released her debut single, entitled "Perfect Together", in 2015. Produced by Kurt Hugo Schneider,[44] it initially released a standalone release on iTunes, but a music video was released later the same year; as of 2019, it has over 20 million views.[45][46] She has continued to post covers of popular songs on her YouTube channel, notably with songs like "Part of Your World" from the Disney movie The Little Mermaid.[47] Such covers, including both "Part of Your World,"[47] and "Think of Me" from Phantom of the Opera, have become available to purchase on sites such as Spotify.[48] As an author, in 2015, Pansino wrote and published The Nerdy Nummies Cookbook.[49][50] The book includes selected recipes previously featured on Nerdy Nummies, along with previously featured recipes have been remastered.[51] The book became a New York Times best seller,[52] and has been listed by BookRiot on a list of "50 Must-Read Books by YouTubers".[53] In 2018, Pansino released another cookbook, entitled Baking All Year Round, which was based on the same concept of her previous cookbook.[54]

Pansino began her business ventures in August 2017,[55] releasing a baking line in collaboration with cooking company Wilton.[56] The set ranges from cooking tools and products intended more for the use of beginners, with the items including measurements and guides on each. It was released to a number of retailers, including Walmart and Michael's.[56] In 2018, she released new items to further extend her line.[57] She began hosting in 2019, making an appearance as a guest judge on Netflix original competitive-baking show Nailed It!.[58] In 2020, she appeared on YouTuber Lauren Riihimaki's show Craftopia.[59] In 2021, Pansino hosted the HBO Max series Baketopia[60] where contestants compete in a bake-off to win up to $10,000;[61][62] her hosting work on the show has received praise[63][64] and she has also executive-produced several episodes.

Personal life

[edit]

Pansino currently resides in Los Angeles, where she films all her YouTube videos.[6] She has struggled with severe dyslexia.[65] In 2018, Pansino announced her relationship with sports commentator Mike Lamond, better known as Husky.[66]

On December 17, 2019, Pansino announced throughout her social media outlets that her father, who appeared in several of her videos, had died as a result of leukemia, which he had been fighting for six years.[67][68]

Also in 2019, Pansino was admitted to a local hospital after complaining of severe pain and illness.[69][70] It was later revealed that she had caught a life-threatening bacterial infection, which was treated immediately.[71] In February 2021, she underwent a removal of her breast implants, and discussed her reason for choosing to remove her implants a year later in a YouTube video.[72][73]
