Background

Vincent Franzetti, a.k.a. Vincent “Funny Calzone Man” Pizzapasta, or just Vinny Vinesauce, is a popular Twitch streamer and Youtube star. He was born in Staten Island, New York. Vinesauce is of Italian descent; maybe that explains his deep love for pizza, one of his all-time favorite foods. He studied English and Communication at college; he had a job as an editor at a television station until he quit in 2014. His career as a content creator and streamer started on the YouTube platform. In the beginning, he was on his own, developing amateur videos related to video games. In 2010 he started assembling a team of streamers. Some of these streamers were his own viewers and followers. Between 2011 and 2013 a few well-known streamers joined his team. Among those streamers we have: Joel/Vargskelethor, ReverendScarecrow/Rev, Fred, MentalJen (umjammerjenny), Darren (Potato), Jonathan/DireBoar, Limes, and Imakuni/Pelkuni — they are the Vinesauce team.

The Vinesauce team streams gameplays of all kinds of video games: the latest ones, old ones, funny games, weird games, and games anyone hardly even knows. Their purpose is to entertain and make their fans laugh. The Vinesauce team holds a charity event every summer; the team streams for 24 hours straight; they call this event “Vinesauce is Hope.”

He is also part of an alternative rock band called Red Vox; he is the singer and guitarist. Some of the band’s most popular hits include ‘In the Garden’ and ‘Atom Bomb.’ He also does a podcast named “Two in the Vine” with one of Vinesauce’s streamers, KY.
