Mikey Barone Bio

Mikey Barone decided to join social media after watching ‘Expelled’, which stars Cameron Dallas, who rose to fame from social media. Following him, Mikey joined Vine and posted a video with his cat. He, however, deleted the app later. He resumed his social media run with YouNow in early 2015. He would often post videos to share with his followers various aspects of his life. Within a few months, he became a star on YouNow. However, as he moved to other social media platforms, he outgrew his popularity on YouNow. He currently has most followers on Instagram. In fact, his popularity on Instagram spread so rapidly that he even mentions on his Twitter bio that he owes everything to "God Instagram". He joined YouTube in late 2015. His step-father introduced him to the audience in one of his very first videos. He currently has 340,000 followers on Instagram, 126k followers on YouNow, 210,000 followers on Twitter and 358k subscribers on YouTube.

Mikey Barone's charming personality has won over thousands of fans on whichever social media platform he has joined. While one would think he must possess tremendous social skills, he himself thinks otherwise. It might come as a surprise to his fans, but Mikey is actually scared of people, as well as places with a lot of people. He feels uncomfortable going to crowded places like airports, concert, or even shopping malls. It makes him very uncomfortable when people stare at him or when he realizes that they are talking about him. He even mentioned in one of his videos that he is so self-conscious about his appearance that he always wears long sleeves, even when he is on the beaches.

In spite of all that, he has decided to open up his life on social media. Ironically, the social media is a place teeming with mean people and bullies who take every opportunity to heartlessly tear down their victims. Mikey mentioned in a video that he is quite paranoid about being in the hit list of such people. However, it seems his decision to be a part of the social media was an attempt to shrug off his fear of criticism. A few months ago he posted a video on his YouTube channel in which he reads out and laughs at hate comments on his social media profiles.

Mikey Barone was in a relationship with Instagram star Taylor Alesia for some time. Pictures of them hanging out together were all over the internet, including on the Instagram page of Mikey's mother. However, their relationship didn't last very long, and their breakup wasn't very pleasant. Even though Mikey didn't comment on their breakup directly, he indirectly accused her of not being a nice person. When one fan of Taylor commented on Twitter that she is very sweet, and another contradicted saying "no she's not", Mikey, faved the latter comment, showing his approval. Later, Mikey was spotted cozying up with pop singer Maggie Lindemann in her Snapchat videos. He has been romantically linked to Instagram star Nicole Anderson.
