Kevin Wu is known for posting humorous videos on YouTube. When Wu's "I
Have to Deal With Stereotypes" video was featured on YouTube's home page,
his number of viewers began to increase. In this video, Wu talks about
stereotypes he must deal with as an Asian. He tries to disprove his cheapness
by bragging about the recent purchase of a "brand new, top-of-the-line, TI-84 calculator".
He acknowledges that this might make him nerdy but dismisses this stereotype
too as he does not "make all A's...in school today [he] made a B+."
He is then greeted by a voice that was supposed to be his mother calling him a
loser and accusing him of shaming their family. Wu goes on to say he can prove
the lack of his social life with the constant ringing of his cell phone. At
this point, his phone indeed rings, he answers it, and the voice on the other
end says, "Hey, why did you tell me to call you?" Wu has collaborated
with fellow YouTube comedian Christine Gambito (HappySlip),
making five videos with her. Kevin Wu graduated from Clements High School in Sugar
Land, Texas, in 2008.
