Claudia Sulewski (born February 19, 1996) is an American YouTuber, host, and actress. In 2007, she started making videos on her YouTube channel in her hometown of Chicago, before moving to Los Angeles in 2014, where she jumped into hosting. A year later, she began hosting videos for Teen Vogue's YouTube channel, becoming its regular host.[2][3][4] She has continued on to an acting career, debuting in the 2022 film I Love My Dad.[5][6][7]
In 2023, Sulewski launched the body care brand Cyklar.
Sulewski was born on February 19, 1996[8] in Chicago, Illinois, to Polish parents Beata Krupinska Sulewski and Czeslaw Sulewski. She was raised in Park Ridge, a suburb of Chicago. She has two brothers, Kevin and Marcin.[9]
Career
YouTube and hosting
She started her YouTube channel in 2007 with the name BeyondBeautyStar, and used the same name on Instagram.[10] Her channel consists of videos about her fashion choices, beauty routines, travels, interior design endeavors, workouts, daily life, and wellness; she has since changed her channel's display name to her full name, 'Claudia Sulewski', as well as all her accounts across social media.
During the COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns, Sulewski and her boyfriend, musician Finneas O'Connell, started the podcast We Bought A House.[11] Soon after, they stopped doing the podcast, O'Connell citing that they felt like they were "sharing too much."[12]
Business ventures
She has also ventured into fashion by collaborating with Nordstrom BP to create a clothing line for which she acted as the social media creative director, crafting the advertisements and producing her own lookbook for the launch.[13][14]
Sulewski founded the sustainable body care brand Cyklar in October 2023.[15][16]
Acting and directing
From 2016 to 2017, she appeared in the TV series The Commute, and from 2016 to 2018, in the webseries T@gged. In 2019, she appeared in an episode of Marvel's Runaways.[17]
She made her wide-release feature film debut in the 2022 movie I Love My Dad, co-starring James Morosini, who also writes and directs, and Patton Oswalt.[5] The film premiered at South by Southwest on March 12, winning the Jury and Audience Awards in the Narrative Film Competition.[18] In July 2022, Sulewski directed, filmed, and edited the music video of O'Connell's song, "Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa." The music video was filmed on iPhone and a handycam in Paris, France.[12][19] In May 2025, Sulewski directed the music video of O'Connell's song, "2001."
Personal life
Since September 2018, Sulewski has been in a relationship with musician Finneas O'Connell.[20] On September 24, 2025, the couple announced their engagement on social media.[21] Sulewski has since become an inspiration for O'Connell's music, such as in songs "Claudia" and "Mona Lisa, Mona Lisa", the former for which she painted the cover art, and the latter for which she directed the music video.[12][19][22]
