Biography

He was born in the city of Maracay, Aragua, Venezuela. He studied at Instituto Escuela Maracay, graduating in 2015. He began producing videos on YouTube at the end of 2012, in which he described the situation in his home country. His character, "La Divaza", caused controversy nationally and internationally for the peculiar personality it presented and the content of his videos. He has since become an icon and a phenomenon on social media.

In 2011, Divaza began making videos of the social networking site Habbo, but stopped in 2012 when his channel called La Divaza flourished.

"La Divaza" is Pedro Luis' alter ego, "a diva." It is a varied channel as far as content is concerned, ranging from vlogs, gameplays and reviews to annual awards like the VMAs, AMAs, EMAs, Billboards, Miss Universe, Met Gala and the Grammys, to more serious topics of social awareness.

His best friend, Jose Gregorio Santos Terrasi (also known as La Jose), lives with him in Mexico City. He has made several appearances in his channel when he lived in Venezuela with the YouTuber Konrad Montero (also known as La Konrad) but because of the distance, their only contact was via social networks.

One week later, the song was available on iTunes, reaching the top on Mexico and other Latin American countries. The music video got one million likes in 24 hours and more than six million views on YouTube. As of June 2020, the music video had 115 million views and 3,5 million likes, making it the most successful song ever by a YouTuber.
