Colleen Ballinger, who became a YouTube staple thanks to her irresistibly bizarre Miranda Sings character creation (10 million subscribers), is officially a mom.
The 32-year-old, who has documented her pregnancy journey on two additional YouTube channels, tweeted yesterday that she was in labor with a hospital selfie (above). Eleven hours later, she updated fans by simply tweeting, “he’s perfect.” This is Ballinger’s first child with fiance Erik Stocklin, who she met while filming her Netflix series Haters Back Off.
Ballinger has yet to share any photos of her son, or reveal his name, though she has shared some additional post-birth missives. On Twitter
, she said that her vagina was “shredded,” and expressed pleasure about not being pregnant anymore. She also noted that the baby had arrived sooner than expected, and said that he “literally looks exactly like Erik. It’s almost spooky how much they look alike. A full-on mini me! He’s so cute! I can’t stop staring at him!”Ballinger most recently appeared the record-breaking music video for Ariana Grande’s “Thank U, Next.” You can check out her last Vlogmas upload before giving birth right here:
