2. He became famous on Vine... for his short, funny, upbeat vids, often featuring his friends or sister, Skylynn.

Within 3 weeks of joining Vine he had over 100,000 followers.

3. He has boy-band good looks.

Floppy hair, piercing blue eyes and an Instagram feed full brooding portraits equal thousands upon thousands of emoji heart comments and offering up of phone numbers.

4. He’s not without controversy.

Sexism and homophobia allegations have plagued him, especially recently. A previously deleted Vine resurfaced where he makes a homophobic slur over a sexual health video. An internet backlash ensued. Grier posted an apology on Twitter saying that he was, "Young, ignorant, stupid, and in a bad place. I've moved on and learned from my mistakes and I am so truly sorry to anyone I have offended."

5. He has his own merchandise.

Merchandise! T-shirts, track pants and crop tops, all Nash Grier branded, can be yours.
