Quenlin Blackwell has shifted from filming hilarious three second videos in her bed, to being a Victoria’s Secret model. Blackwell grew up around Dallas, Texas, and then relocated to Los Angeles when she gained internet fame from her Vine videos under the iconic username Quensadilla. She initially started posting amusing meme content clips in her bed in 2014, before evolving her content for YouTube in 2025, where her 3.1 million subscribers tune in weekly for her comedic skits, candid lifestyle vlogs and creative collaborations.
She regularly posts content with Alex Consani, her cousin, Larray, and many other notable people such as PinkPantheress, Ice Spice and Billie Eilish. She has opened up a fashion brand, Riquera, focusing on pieces that cultivate and embrace a cyber and Y2K inspired aesthetic: bold, digital and unapologetically her.
Blackwell is also working on projects like acting in Rachel Sennott’s upcoming HBO series, “I Love LA,” being featured on the front cover of PAPER magazine and regularly appearing at fashion shows such as the Louis Vuitton Spring Summer 2026 show, and Paris Fashion week in September of 2025. Blackwell is now known for her skit series on Youtube, “FEEDING STARVING CELEBRITIES,” once introducing herself as Naomi Campbell.
She debuted on the runway of the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show 2025 that took place on Oct. 15, 2025, in New York City at the Steiner Studios Brooklyn Navy Yard. She was featured alongside runway veterans such as Gigi Hadid, Bella Hadid and Adriana Lima, while also walking with first-timers such as Suni Lee, Angel Reese and Barbie Ferreira. On the special day, Blackwell graced the stage wearing a bedazzled PINK pink lingerie set with black 01 Heels.
On her Instagram, she also posted the following photos from her gallery, after uploading her over an hour-long behind the scenes YouTube video of that day. She documents how she prepared with her stylists and makeup/hair artists, got pumped up with her lymphatic massages and what the opportunity meant to her. Quen says that she felt, “Pink, happy, fun, frilly, juicy, silly, giddy, joyous,” which is exactly the presented atmosphere she envelopes.
After watching her walk, many of her supporters are excited about what she will do next, and, like me, wish the best for her! Quenlin Blackwell is an upcoming fashion icon, and she is definitely going places far beyond her bedroom Vines!
