Élodie Nassar (French pronunciation:[elɔdinasaʁ]; born 19 January 1997), known as MissJirachi, is a French YouTuber specialized in the subject of Pokémon.
MissJirachi is of Lebanese descent through her father.[2]
MissJirachi started to create videos dedicated to the Pokémon universe[3]onYouTube when she was 15.
In 2014, she partnered with YouTuber David Lafarge, her boyfriend.[4] The couple collaborated on more than 1200 videos,[5] in relation with Pokémon themes, but also on other subjects.[6][7] Their success is due to the fact they integrated lifestyle YouTuber culture, as well as personal stories in their videos. They often evoked their life as a couple.
In February 2016, as another YouTuber asked her what was the point in creating a TV reality show dedicated to their life couple, MissJirachi explained that her fans identified to them because they seemed "normal", a fact that a more elaborate staging might have spoiled.[4] David Lafarge indicated that on a marketing level, videos tagged done as they were a couple seemed to have better results.
David Lafarge announced their separation on 2 December 2017,[8] while still making videos at her home where he lived.[9]
