Roman Serfaty

Roman Serfaty was born on September 2, 2008 in Arkansas, United States of America. Roman’s mother Jessica was just 17 years old at the time of his birth. Though she was initially happy being a stay at home mother, she later realized that she wanted to achieve much more than just being an average teen mom.

She moved to Los Angeles after earning an opportunity to be featured in one of the most popular television shows, ‘America's Next Top Model.’ After placing fourth in the reality TV series, Jessica wanted to pursue a career in modeling. Hence, she persuaded her then husband Ididia Serfaty to move to Los Angeles along with their son.

After living together in Los Angeles for several months, Jessica’s relationship with Ididia deteriorated, which culminated in their divorce. Ididia then returned to Arkansas along with his son Roman as he had won the custody of his child.

Roman Serfaty was exposed to social media by his mother Jessica Michel Serfaty. He then became friends with popular internet celebrities and was featured in their respective YouTube channels and videos.

He first gained prominence as a featured YouTube artist when he started appearing in the YouTube videos of the famous YouTube star, Logan Paul. One of Logan Paul’s videos, titled ‘Explaining Things To A 6-Year-Old’ which features Roman, has gathered more than 1.7 million views on YouTube.

Roman then started appearing on many such videos for various YouTubers, before becoming famous as a Vine star. Within two months of creating his Vine channel, Roman had accumulated more than 50,000 followers on the social media platform.

Also, the videos posted on his Vine account had more than 10 million loops. Some of his most popular uploads on Vine were titled as ‘Whip,’ ‘Thug,’ and ‘Next Time.’ When Vine went defunct, he continued to appear on the YouTube videos of famous internet celebrities and social media influencers.

He currently has an Instagram account, which has more than 9,800 followers. He is also featured on his mother’s official Instagram account, which has managed to accumulate more than 635,000 followers.
