ROSSENDALE resident Antonella the Uncensored Reviewer has become a global YouTube sensation.

By day Antonella, 43, Haslingden, works for the NHS as a GP receptionist but there is no respite when you are a YouTube star 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The Lancashire star is best known for posting honest and uncensored online videos about anything and everything across various social media platforms.

She said: "I am an uncensored reviewer. I will review odd bits of product, honest and uncensored.

"My videos are not for the faint hearted nor anybody under the age of 18.

"Sometimes I can be blunt, but if you want an honest answer then I'll give you one."

The 43-year-old started the channel after making a 50p bet with a friend and in less than a year has become a 'global sensation'.

The YouTube celebrity has amassed over one million followers on social media, including 290,000 subscribers on Snapchat and 630,000 likes on her Facebook page.

Antonella's 'Easy to See' Bank Holiday video last May received over a million hits on her highly popular Facebook page.

Antonella said: "I was quite shocked. I never in a million years thought I'd be famous. I don't see my myself as a celebrity but I get people, people of all ages, stopping for me for selfies. I find it surreal.

"At work it's the same. Patients will come in and say 'just wait a minute my leg is falling off but I need to get a selfie.'"

Antonella is due to appear at the Grand opening of Tesco Mobile at Tesco Haslingden later today She said she will be happy to meet fans in person and they will be able to get selfies with the YouTube star.

Antonella also left a message for people looking to follow in her footsteps: "Everything I video people want to do. I'm giving people confidence to do things.

"Use your phone and talk to it. Walk with it. Build your confidence and find your own style.

"Most people have the confidence to do it but they just need that extra push."
