Andrew Bachelor (born June 26, 1988) is a Canadian-born American actor, director, writer, producer, and internet personality, who is best known by his online alias KingBach. He is also a member of Phi Beta Sigma fraternity.

Bachelor is a graduate of Florida State University.[1] At FSU, he was a track and field star.[1][2] He also attended New York Film Academy, before dropping out his last semester, and moving to Los Angeles.[3]

Despite having over several million followers on Vine,[4] Bachelor is also known for his YouTube account, BachelorsPadTv.[5] The channel and its videos have been covered by several online publications, including FSU News.[6][7][8] Bach has stated that he turns down most requests to upload sponsored Vines.[4] Bachelor's Vine stardom led to him signing with UTA, and landing a recurring role in House of Lies.[9][10]

On both his Vines and his YouTube videos, he has collaborated with fellow internet personalities such as Tré Melvin[11], Alphacat, DeStorm, and Eric Dunn.[5] He was introduced to Vine by his friend, and fellow Vine celebrity, Brittany Furlan, before uploading his first Vine video on May 29, 2013.[3] His Vines have also been covered on internet publications.[12][13]

Bach is also one of the new cast members of the upcoming sixth season of Wild 'n Out.
