Alia "Lia" Shelesh (born (1992-10-22)October 22, 1992), better known as SSSniperWolf, is a British-American YouTuber and internet personality.
[17][18] That year, her channel grew to over five million subscribers, and she was among the ten entrants in Forbes' "Top Influencers" list in the "Gaming" category for 2017.
[31] On August 17, 2023, Evan Young filed a lawsuit against Shelesh for breach of contract and financial misdoings in relation to content produced by Channel Red, their joint company.
[33][34][35] YouTuber Jack Douglass, known as jacksfilms, accused Shelesh of profiting from other creators' work through monetizing her reaction videos, while frequently not providing proper credit,[31] and characterized her content as rudimentary and not transformative enough for fair use.
She showed his house in an Instagram story[4] captioned "let's talk like adults",[36][38][39] which was quickly removed, but her followers shared screenshots.
[36] Douglass responded by accusing Shelesh of doxing him,[4] called her actions "creepy, gross, violating",[40] and asked YouTube to demonetize her.
[49] Shelesh subsequently apologized to Douglass in a tweet, saying that her actions were "inexcusable" and that she respects YouTube's decision.
[51][52][53] In 2019, Shelesh and Evan Young, her partner at the time, bought a house in Henderson, Nevada,[54] which they sold in 2022,[18] after which they moved to Mummy Mountain, Arizona.
[32] In a review of her main channel, Kennedy Unthank from Plugged In commended her for seeking to "make people laugh through daily uploads" and the quantity of available videos.
According to Unthank, while some of her reactions provide additional insight or have a transformative nature, many of her videos did not offer anything substantial over the original clip that was being reacted to.
