What did your faith and spirituality mean to you before you pursued East and South Asian religion and how has it shaped you now? It definitely taught me to be humble, and I realized I still knew very little about how the world worked.
I think, you know, I achieved youtube success at 17 and from there I just kind of, education became on the back… my YouTube views, my subscribers and my interactions with my viewers and stuff became my threshold and my priority. I realized when I was 22 or 23, when I tried to be a serious actor and do films, that I still was very lacking knowledge in terms of telling a minute story. So it was very clear to me that I needed to educate myself, and so taking a step back and clearing my mind and putting my ambitions aside so I could focus on friends and family.
Has your faith and spirituality taught you anything about your spiritual background? Did it change how you identified with the Asian community? I was studying a lot of Eastern traditions. Being Asian American, I only focus on the American side, growing up here and trying to fit in, being one of the few Asian people in my school.
As of May , he has ceased blogging due to an undisclosed injury. JumbaFund is a channel that KevJumba created to act as a second channel, except all money that the channel makes from his partnership with YouTube will go directly to a charity of his choosing. He made enough money to help build a secondary school in Kenya and it was named Jumba Lenana Academy. He announced in a video on his JumbaFund channel that all revenue in will be donated to the construction of the school.
It is undetermined how much was made and what is being used for money in as of June 6, It is now close to impossible to know any more information due to Kevin not being connected to anything on the Internet as of late. In May and June of , he participated with his father in filming for the 17th season of The Amazing Race , an American reality television game show. Upon this announcement, it was also the first time his dad's name, Michael, was revealed, which was kept anonymous since his debut.
Kevin officially announced his participation on Facebook on September 1, and on YouTube a week later. He also revealed that he suffered a near death accident last year when he was hit by a car and had to be hospitalized for 45 days.
His father moved him back to Houston so that he could look after him. About five days ago, Wu uploaded an acting reel vowing to pursue his passion for acting again, but fans would probably be more surprised reading the second line of the description.
You read that right folks, KevJumba has returned! Team Jumba! King Malleta. Support our Journalism with a Contribution Many people might not know this, but despite our large and loyal following which we are immensely grateful for, NextShark is still a small bootstrapped startup that runs on no outside funding or loans.
There were psychological injuries, too. Wu speaks of that time carefully, still grappling with the physical and mental trauma. The accident left Wu unable to continue school or do anything else but focus on his recovery. He moved back in with this parents in Houston after he was discharged. His father nursed him back from the edge. Wu resurfaced in March, restoring his YouTube channel to the public setting.
But he wants to plot his return carefully. He applied for and was accepted to multiple acting conservatories in New York, including the Stella Adler Studio, and is planning a trip to visit the campuses soon. One reason for acting school is to see if his body can take it. The other reason is because Wu recognizes that he leapfrogged a lot of steps in his first unexpected entree into fame and fortune.
