Key Information

Early life

[edit]

Milonakis was born in Katonah, New York, to a Greek-American family. His father was born in Greece.[3][4] Milonakis was born with a growth hormone deficiency, causing him to have the appearance and voice of an adolescent.[5] He attended John Jay High School in Lewisboro.[6] Milonakis turned to comedy and humor as a preemptive defense mechanism.[7]

Career

[edit]

On January 26, 2003, the day of Super Bowl XXXVII, Milonakis decided not to attend a friend's Super Bowl party and instead recorded a video titled "The Super Bowl Is Gay". He posted the video to the website AngryNakedPat.com, and within two weeks it went viral. A writer for ABC's new late-night show, Jimmy Kimmel Live!, spotted it and got Milonakis on the program. At the time, Milonakis was working as a tech support staffer at a Manhattan accounting firm.[7][8][9]

Over the next few years, Milonakis would continue to make guest appearances on Kimmel's show. The talk show host eventually sent a DVD of Milonakis's clips to MTV2 executive producer Tony DiSanto, proposing what would eventually become The Andy Milonakis Show.[10] MTV greenlit the pilot in 2005: an "absurdist, surrealist nightmare that used random people as actors," combining sketches and man-on-the-street segments with celebrity guest appearances. It would run for three seasons.[11]

Milonakis first started rapping on YouTube; his first song was called "The Andy Milonakis Rap". He was in Three Loco, a group that also included rap artists Dirt Nasty and Riff Raff, but on September 26, 2014, he announced that the group had broken up.[12]

From 2014 to 2015, Milonakis hosted and starred in a cooking show called Fat Prince on Munchies, a YouTube channel that is part of the Vice network.[13] In each episode, he and a changing cast of chefs combined cheap ingredients with expensive ingredients to make a unique meal.

Throughout 2017 and 2018, Milonakis was heavily involved with livestreamer Paul Denino, better known as Ice Poseidon, appearing in his livestreams and associating with his CX Network.[citation needed]

In 2022, Milonakis partnered with Voiceverse, a blockchain-based startup that marketed itself as offering AI voice cloning technology in the form of non-fungible tokens.[14]
