Franchesca Ramsey, aka Chescaleigh, first showed off her comedy talent in 2006, when she launched her YouTube channel with topical and socially conscious comedy sketches and song parodies.
Six years later the YouTuber became a viral sensation, when her video S**t White Girls Say to Black Girls racked up millions of views, landing her an agent. Soon after, the American comedian hit the audition circuit and nabbed a role on the first season of Broad City, and sold her own web series, Decoded, to MTV. More recently, Ramsey made an appearance at Sundance to sell her 'anti-Goop' comedic docuseries, temporarily titled Franchesca, which premiered in the festival’s inaugural Indie Episodic section. Now Ramsey is gearing up to release her part memoir, part inspirational guide book, Well That Escalated Quickly, due out in May.
