The World According to Kiera P.
Joseph Watkins Da Watcha
My introduction into the Kieraverse was on the show Fantastic Frankey’s: Fighting Words. When I saw these two individuals on the screen; what i saw was a friendly gathering that took place every couple of years to see how their bestie is doing. This interview, was a dedication to Pop Culture’s Queen-Mother and toward the end, Kiera P. gave a tribute to her fans:
“All my fans out there, I just want to let you know that you don't have to be one thing. All your interests are valid, and you should explore that. You never know what you're going to like, and you never know what parts of your personality really shine. Don't limit yourself regardless of what society or people put on you that you feel like is only acceptable. Stop it. You do not need to dim down your light to shine, okay? You need to shine for yourself. And if that means you're going to be a stand-up comedian and a cosplayer and a YouTuber and a Twitch streamer and a writer and a videographer, do all those things. Explore that and figure out what works for you and only you.”
As she blessed the screen with her presence and her words of wisdom, her energy was undeniable. Dick Gregory, famed African American comedian, actor, writer, activist and social critic once said, “When the universe picks you and you put on the magic glasses.....You see things as they are...”
Additionally, when a person is their authentic self, the universe responds and Kiera has been pop culture’s Silver Surfer; navigating the digital ecosystem, building an empire and inspiring millions across multiple platforms like Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Reddit, and Twitter with her amazing content.
That’s when I realized......It’s Kiera’s world, we’re just living in it.
Cosplayer, mangaka, streamer, executive producer, videographer and more; social media’s queen mother has blessed us with her energy, wit, and marvelous creativity. Her Tumblr, an amalgam of art, cosplay, and family, was the seed, and what continues to grow to this day is an amazing creative who is known for embracing her alt-girl aesthetics, amazing dopeness, and remarkable content.
Cosplay
Her cosplay game is top tier as she embodies the characters that she portrays. For example, in Chainsaw Man, she pierces the soul as her portrait of Makima, the humanized form of the control devil. Dangerous, her attachment to Denji in this portrait is both demonic and sensual.
Dazzling audiences with her craftsmanship and meticulous attention to detail, Kiera has also redefined the art of cosplay. Whether stepping onto the convention floor to interview fans as an anime hero or transforming into an original creation, she brings her characters to life, leaving fans stunned and wanting.
Mangaka
Kiera P. is also a hilarious storyteller. Teaming up with various creatives, her company, Pretty Bizarre Comics, brings her imagination to life through manga and artwork that not only motivates but also inspires and makes you laugh. Her illustrated journal/manga, Inner Monologues, is a testament to her creativity and vision. Incorporating bold artwork, expressive characters, and cleverly crafted prompts, her journal is designed for individuals who may have lost their way creatively and need a push to find their creative center.
YouTube
On YouTube, Kiera has shared insightful advice on various topics, from navigating video games to discussing her personal growth as an artist. One example of her navigation is her run with the classic hit, DETROIT: Become Human. As she navigated an abandoned house as Kara, one scene in particular that I enjoyed watching was when she [Kara] accepted the invite into the abandoned house with Ralph, the homicidal android and the situation went left.
SideNote: For me, I avoided that situation when he approached us on the side of the house. I saw the knife and the trials and tribulations he was going through on his face and said, ‘Naw Fam, I’m good with the abandoned car.’
As for Kiera, that moment made me realize, she journeys into the unknown, take risks and makes the best out of any situation.
Music
Blending rap, pop, and gaming-inspired beats, Kiera embraces experimentation and isn’t afraid to have fun while showcasing her love for gaming. Impeccably combining nostalgic 8-bit sounds, high-energy synths, and thoughtful verses, her video Smash Bros is infectious. As she switches between Nintendo characters, she discusses her attraction to "mean guys," expresses frustration over dudes prioritizing Smash Bros over her and shares her personal love for Mario Party with the famous Zeno Robinson as co-star.
In contrast, her video Bloom takes a more thoughtful turn, reflecting on her personal growth and transformation as a creative, artist, and human. Despite a lack of attention or support, she continues to grow at her own pace—much like a seed blossoming into a vibrant flower. BLOOMING on all counts. To me, her music is a personal journey into her creative mind, and I love the road map she’s constructing.
Executive Producer
Her bold approach to risk-taking has fueled her creative journey, leading her to establish Pretty Bizarre Productions (PBP)—a company dedicated to art, fandom, and everything bizarre in between. For example, one short film explored the internet’s highs, lows, and its algorithm. This film had me glued all the way to its shocking end. Another standout project, her tribute to Bryan Lee O’Malley’s Snot Girl—is a chaotic, colorful, and brilliantly executed film in which Lottie, played by Instagram’s Snitchery, brings her inner monologue and allergy-induced psychosis to life. PBP’s work resonates with fans as she merges cinematic narratives and a dose of comedy, making her work visually stunning and at times chaotic.
Legacy
With unparalleled drive and a limitless creative spirit, Kiera P. is shaping the future of pop culture on her own terms. Her influence spans multiple platforms, proving that being multi-talented isn’t just an advantage—it’s a game changer. From co-hosting Squid Game Season 2 to engaging with fans at comic-cons, creating reaction videos, writing mangaka and more, Kiera continues to break barriers, leaving fans eager to see what’s next for this unstoppable force in entertainment.
Kiera P. is a creative wunderkind and as she continues to build her universe, one thing remains clear— Kiera Please isn’t just a rising star; she’s a force redefining the pop culture game.
