#19 Bella Younger (Deliciously Stella) - From Instagram to Book Deal

I first discovered Deliciously Stella on Instagram last year and over the past year she’s attracted fans such as Davina McCall and getting mainstream attention in Grazia, the Daily Mail, The Times, Buzzfeed and interviewed by the BBC. Deliciously Stella is a parody account created by comedian Bella Younger that gently mocks the #EatClean movement. She now has 125,000 followers on Instagram and growing - some magazines have called her the Instagram “Anti Hero”. She now has a book deal, a TV pilot in the works and a show at Edinburgh Fringe festival this year all about her beloved character Deliciously Stella. We talk about all sorts of things: what it's like bringing a show to Edinburgh Fringe, the cliques in comedy, sponsored content, how her Instagram turned into a book deal and building your own personal #brand.

Ctrl Alt Delete subverts the traditional career show. Instead, it's for people who are more interested in shaping their work rather than letting their work shape them. The main focus is work, wellbeing and creativity. Hosted by bestselling author Emma Gannon, she has a gentle line of questioning that starts with work, and ends up wherever the conversations lead. Named Best Business podcast by Vuelio, Webby award nominee and named 50 Best Podcasts by Sunday Times, Ctrl Alt Delete is a gateway into new ideas – with past guests varying far and wide including Elizabeth Gilbert, Reni Eddo-Lodge, Jacqueline Wilson, Lena Dunham, Julia Cameron, Priyanka Chopra-Jonas, Ava DuVernay, Gillian Anderson and Mrs Hinch.
