Freddy-Cousin Brown Brown wanted to be an actress since her childhood. She got in the prestigious Sylvia Young Theatre School in London where her academics was integrated with vocational training. The school had an agency that would scout for professional employment and would regularly send them to auditions. She managed to act in a few advertisements, perform at different events, sing on the radio, and was an extra in a Harry Potter movie. However, she didn’t get the big break she hoped for. She cites her height as the reason she couldn’t find a major role. Brown was very tall for her age and was contacted more often by modeling agencies, but she wanted to pursue acting.

Her luck as an actor didn’t materialize and she started modeling when she graduated from school at the age of sixteen. She worked part time at Hollister Co. and became a model. She starred in various short films, appeared in guest roles for TV series, and was a part of many music videos, yet her ‘big break’ eluded her. She decided to start a fashion, beauty, and lifestyle channel on YouTube in December 2014 as she grew up watching such videos. Soon enough, her YouTube stint hit off and she had a steady fan base growing. She was approached by Gleam Futures, who went on to sign a contract with her. At this point, she quit her job at Hollister and decided to get into YouTube full time.

Her style is described and subdued and classy with experimental undertones. Her signature look for videos include pastel and neutral colors with upbeat music. Her shopping haul videos are the most popular as she describes how even high-end brands cater to a wide audience. With such a huge fan following, she hopes that she can become an actress through her social media influence.

Her channel ‘Freddy My Love’ has over 720,000 subscribers and she posts a video every Monday. Apart from regularly posting about hauls, outfits, and makeup, she includes videos of her travels, collaborations with her little sister, and covers of various popular songs. She has recently started a blog so that she can work on more diverse content. She hopes that her distinctive personal style would soon result in a clothing and makeup line that would echo her style and passion.

Like many other YouTube vloggers, Brown too was the subject of troll attacks and spiteful comments. Some insinuated that she paid people to subscribe to her channel and follow her elsewhere, while others have called her the mean Regina from ‘Mean Girls’. These comments grew in number as her popularity increased; however, she retaliated stating that she is not a ‘punchbag’ and will not encourage such negative comments on her channel.

Freddy Cousin-Brown is obsessed with Disney and feels happiest at Disneyland. She has mentioned that her dream would be to become a Disney Princess. Though she is not into sports, she always got picked for various athletic events at school because of her height.
