George Clarke is one of the biggest British social media stars of his generation, followed by millions of people online. He’s gone from posting funny videos in his university bedroom to making regular Sidemen appearances and reaching the Strictly Come Dancing final last year. George’s rise happened faster than he ever expected. What surprised me most, though, was discovering that behind the funny videos is a self-confessed introvert who’s had to learn to live his life in the public eye.In our conversation, George shares: Growing up as an introvert but always wanting to be a YouTuber His Mum’s health struggles & why she’s his heroHis thoughts on KSI leaving the Sidemen Why him and his friends started Friends From Work George was one of the nicest, funniest people I've had the pleasure of sitting down with, and I can't wait to see what he does next.George Clarke is Great Company.
