Growing up, she wanted to be a Power Ranger or a rapper, but her parents steered her towards a psychology degree at Toronto’s York University, with a view to becoming a counselor. Growing up, Singh was an extrovert, who “used to be that annoying kid at parties who would be at the center of a circle to get everyone’s attention,” she revealed in a 2016 interview with AOL. She and her older sister, Tina - also now a YouTuber - were given a traditional Sikh upbringing by their parents, Malwinder and Sukhwinder, who had emigrated to Canada from the Punjab. Lilly Saini Singh was born on September 26, 1988, and raised in Scarborough, Toronto. In 2019, she began hosting the late-night talk show A Little Late with Lilly Singh. Her main channel, IISuperwomanII - a moniker she often adopts online - has had more than 2 billion views and has more than 12 million subscribers her second channel, SuperwomanVlogs has more than 2.2 million subscribers. All have helped her become a huge hit on the video-sharing platform. She is known for her kooky, energetic mix of comedy sketches - which regularly feature Punjabi parents (both played by her), raps and skits that gently riff on ethnic and gender stereotypes - as well as her observational/motivational monologues and behind-the-scenes vlogs. Lilly Singh has turned her lifelong love of performing into YouTube alchemy.
