Amy Pham eats slashes for breakfast. And we’ll confess: the DJ/model/host/stylist unfailingly pitches a tent in our cuffed sweats. At 23, Pham has already proven herself a digital wizard, spinning by night and dazzling YouTube viewers by day. Best described as an “approachable goofball,” she keeps it fresh by tempering casual charm with a sharp eye for fashion. If you recognize her, it’s probably because she’s everywhere—most recently tearing it up at SXSW.
Pham’s career began when her older brother brought home a turntable. Fast forward a few years, and now she’s bouncing from coast to coast, playing events alongside headliners like Iggy Azalea and Will I Am. Girl can spin—in fur—without breaking a sweat. Her modeling portfolio isn’t too shabby, either, including spreads for the likes of Nylon, Reebok, and Nike.
Outside of crushing it in music and modeling, Pham is the host for Maker Studios’ The Fashion Statement,
where she showcases her personal style in weekly YouTube episodes. She even makes a strong case for Ebay, proving there’s no shame in thrifting—all from the comfort of your very own couch. With more agents than Kimye, Pham is clearly just getting started. Whether she’s party-pleasing, styling, or hustling via social media, she’s perpetually on the move. At this point, we’re pretty much just waiting for her to announce her
2016 bid for office.
