Magibon

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Magibon is the alias of a young American woman who became an Internet celebrity on the video-sharing website YouTube, which she joined on February 26, 2006 and on which she uses the username MRirian.

She is especially popular amongst Japanese viewers. Her fame is such that she has been invited to and flown to Japan for interviews on television shows and magazines. Her popularity amongst the Japanese may have been influenced by her purported resemblance, due especially to her large, wide eyes, to anime characters.
