Rebecca Anne Flint (born 5 June 1995), also known professionally as Beckii Cruel (ベッキー・クルーエル, Bekkī Kurūeru), is a British YouTuber, marketing entrepreneur, and former singer. Early in her career, Flint became known for her cover dance videos on YouTube, of which her channel has reached 20 million upload views and over 100,000 subscribers.[1] In 2009, one of Flint's cover dance videos went viral in Japan, and, at one point, she was the 17th most subscribed user in the country.[2] This led to a brief idol career in Japan, where Flint made her music debut through the No, Ballad Matsuri and No, Upper Matsuri compilation albums. She then released her debut solo single, "Just Wanna Have Some Fun", in 2010, and was a member of the international girl group Cruel Angels, with whom she released the single "Tsubasa o Kudasai".
After 2011, Flint transitioned her video content to fashion and also launched her own fashion label, Bcky Couture. In December 2016, Flint began focusing on online marketing and co-founded Pepper Studio, an influencer marketing agency in London, in March 2019.
Early life
Flint was born in Blackpool, Lancashire, England, the daughter of a police inspector and a former dance instructor.[2] She also has an older brother named Ryan.[2] She moved with her family at the age of 2 to Ramsey on the Isle of Man, where she attended Ramsey Grammar School.[1] She became interested in anime and manga at the age of 11, when she first started reading Fruits Basket.[2]
Career
2009–2010: Early YouTube career and Japanese debut
On 22 July 2007, Flint began a YouTube channel under the name "xBextahx", from a nickname she had when she was younger.[4] The first video she posted on the channel was a cover dance of "Hare Hare Yukai".[4][5] On 15 April 2009, she posted a cover dance video of herself dancing to "Danjo", a song by Taro that was turned into an Internet meme in Japan. Her video was uploaded to Nico Nico Douga,[2] where it went viral, and she started receiving offers to perform in Japan.[6][7] In August 2009, she signed onto the talent agency Life Is So Cruel.[1] Life Is So Cruel suggested Flint to use a stage name to distinguish herself from Japanese television personality Becky, and Flint declined to use her last name.[8]: 7:17 A Japanese producer suggested the stage name "Beckii Cruel" for her,[9] through a combination of one of her nicknames and Life Is So Cruel.[10] Another stage name suggested for her was "Beckii Angel", as the agency was in process of creating the girl group Cruel Angels, but Flint decided the stage name "Beckii Cruel" sounded "cool."[8]: 7:17 After flying to Japan, she first performed as a dancer in the finale of Animelo Summer Live 2009.[11] Later, she performed with Taro at the Akihabara Entertainment Festival.[1][12]
For her Japanese activities, Flint would travel to Japan during school holidays,[11][13] and she would live stream every Saturday on Nico Nico Douga.[14] Initially, she was brought onto Life Is So Cruel to dance at events, but the management then planned on having her pursue a music career.[6] Although Flint had experience in dancing, having taken ballet since she was 4 years old,[9] she underwent vocal training and sought advice from David Holland, an agent who also worked with Samantha Barks.[1]
Flint appeared in an online campaign for Lotte Fit's in November 2009.[15][16] On 4 November 2009, Flint made her music debut with the release of the two compilation albums No, Ballad Matsuri (の、バラード祭, No, Barādo Matsuri) and No, Upper Matsuri (の、アッパー祭, No, Appā Matsuri), as part of the No, Matsuri (の、祭り) CD series that featured other singers from the Japanese Nico Nico Douga community.[4][17] No, Ballad Matsuri included the song "Tōi Sora Kumo o Kuguri" (遠い空 雲をくぐり) and No, Upper Matsuri included the song "Danjo"; both songs were duets with Taro, and Flint herself contributed English lyrics to "Tōi Sora Kumo o Kuguri."[4][17] On 9 December, she released her first idol DVD, titled This is Beckii Cruel!.[18] It debuted at number 8 on Japan's DVD charts.[2]
By 2010, Flint became the 17th most subscribed user on YouTube in Japan.[6] On 6 January 2010, she made her first appearance on Japanese television on the variety show Jinrui Akiramekaketeita Yume.[19] On 31 January 2010, Flint released a digital single titled "Just Wanna Have Some Fun", with "Tokyo Love" as its b-side.[20] In March 2010, Flint made her runway modeling debut when she made a guest appearance at the 10th Tokyo Girls Collection.[21] On 29 April 2010, Flint released her first photo book, All About Beckii.[12] Flint also danced and modeled for promotional events and campaigns for the Japanese theatrical releases of Pretty Cure All Stars DX2: Light of Hope - Protect the Rainbow Jewel![22] and Wild Child.[23]
On 12 August 2010, BBC Three premiered a documentary about Flint, titled Beckii: Schoolgirl Superstar at 14.[24] In November 2010, Flint collaborated with Eigo-mimi to produce English conversation learning materials published by ASCII Media Works.[25] Two books, English Listening with Beckii Cruel: Conversations with Friends and English Listening with Beckii Cruel: Conversations at Work, were both released with accompanying DVDs on 24 December 2010.[26] The DVD for Conversations with Friends included a full-length music video of "Just Wanna Have Some Fun", while the DVD for Conversations at Work included a full-length music video of "Tokyo Love."[26] On 25 December 2010, Flint presented a 15-minute short programme on "Tinsel Takeover", a radio segment on BBC Radio 1.[27]
Cruel Angels
In October 2009, Flint was announced to be a member of Cruel Angels,[28][2] an international girl group formed by Life Is So Cruel.[29] At the time of the announcement, Cruel Angels consisted of Flint, 18-year-old college student Sarah Cruel from Lyons, and 16-year-old Gemma Cruel from Portsmouth.[28][2] Flint released a cover of "Tsubasa o Kudasai" (翼をください) with the Cruel Angels as featured artists through the label Tokuma Japan Communications on 10 February 2010.[30] In September 2010, Flint confirmed on Formspring that she withdrew from Cruel Angels and Cruel Angels Project, citing a disagreement with her management in being promoted as a member of Cruel Angels instead of a soloist.[31]
2011–2013: Independent music career

In 2011, Flint's parents pulled her out of her contract with Life Is So Cruel.[32]: 21:32 She announced her departure from the agency on August 6, 2011 through a Nico Nico Douga live stream.[14][33] Some of the reasons that she cited for her retirement from the idol industry included unfair contracts and because she had no interest in relocating to Japan.[6][11]
On 24 October 2011, Flint released "You Can't Kiss Me", her first single in the United Kingdom,[34] on digital platforms, which she also performed at MCM Expo on 29–30 October of the same year.[35] The song was produced by Tom Nichols and charted at no. 8 on the Music Week Dance Charts.[36] In 2012, Flint performed at Hyper Japan[37] and Brighton Japan Festival and Matsuri.
In May 2012, Flint and her friend Camille Cora produced their own idol group, Oishii! Ichigo, which consisted of international YouTubers making song and dance covers of J-pop songs.[38][39] In the same month, Flint and Cora also produced the idol group Oishii! Mini Cherries, grouping them as the musical collective Oishii! Project.[38] Flint created the group's outfits, and Oishii! Ichigo released their first extended play, Gametime, in December 2012.[39]
On 28 April 2013, Flint was featured on Area 11's single "Shi No Barado."[40] On 15 August 2013, Flint released "Future Fantasy", her first Japanese song in 3 years.[41] In addition, she filmed and posted a self-made documentary titled Beckii Cruel: Independent Idol on her YouTube channel detailing her experience working on the song.[41]
2014–2016: Later YouTube content, focus on fashion, and Bcky Couture
Flint's later video content transitioned into fashion and beauty,[42] as well as vlogging.[6][43]: 22:45 She stated that she had been inspired to focus on both Japanese and Western fashion trends based on her experience being styled for photo shoots during her idol career in Japan, particularly being in a Liz Lisa shop.[6] In addition, she confirmed in a 2016 interview with Dazed that she was no longer performing as a singer due to anxiety.[42][43]: 22:45 On 14 April 2014, Flint launched a clothing line called Bcky Couture, with clothes handmade by herself.[44] Since 2014, she has also made appearances at Summer in the City.[45] On 28 September 2014, she made a guest appearance at Moshi Moshi Nippon Festival 2014 as a model.[46]
On 17 May 2015, she collaborated with artist Jeremy Boydell to release a clothing line called "Bcky × SlimGiltSoul."[47] She appeared as a guest at Bandai Namco's panel at the 2015 Tokyo Game Show.[48] In May 2016, Flint became a kawaii reporter for the television program NHK World Kawaii International on NHK World.[49] In the same month, she stated through an interview with BuzzFeed Japan that she was no longer active in Japan, nor is she producing content in Japanese due to her lack of fluency in the language.[49]
2016–present: Pepper Studio and other business ventures
After moving to London, in December 2016, Flint became the creator community manager for the marketing company Social Circle and also appeared at Summer in the City as a representative.[50][51] In December 2017, she gave evidence to the House of Lords Select Committee on Communications for their inquiry into the advertising industry.[52]
She has acted as a judge for the Social Media Marketing Awards in 2018 and 2019,[53] as well as for the Influencer Marketing Awards in 2021.[54]
In March 2019, Flint co-founded Pepper Studio, an influencer marketing agency in London.[11] Representing Pepper Studio, Flint has spoken to the media and at events about influencer marketing, including The Drum,[55] Moneybox Live,[56] The Today Programme, and The World Tonight.[57] She has spoken at events including Social Day[58] and Digital Woman.[59]
In 2021, Flint was a recipient of Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe: Media & Marketing[60] and appeared on the "How to earn a living on social media" episode of The Media Show on BBC News and BBC Radio 4.[61]
Public image
In Japan, Flint became an example of a net idol[4] and was given the media nickname "impossibly cute" (かわいいにもほどがある).[25] Flint cites one of her dance inspirations as Kozue Aikawa.[9] From a young age, she was also inspired by Japanese fashion trends from magazines such as Popteen and Seventeen.[9] While she took lessons in Japanese,[9] she is not fluent in the language.[6][11][49] Manga artist Hideo Nishimoto also included a cameo appearance of Flint in his manga series Mou, Shimasen Kara .[62][63]

In Japan, at that time, especially, there was already a really famous talent called Becky. We were asked, "Do you want to use your actual surname?" [...] And I was like, "I'm not sure about that." [...] So they were like, "Do you want to be called Beckii Angel or Beckii Cruel?", 'cause they were thinking about this project, like, Cruel Angels. So, I was like, "Well, Cruel sounds quite cool, so..."

I left my — that original management company. [...] This was more, like, my parents, who were looking out for my interests, were trying just to make the best judgment calls that they could. [...] They were like, "There's a point where it's a bit of a job." And so, they made the decision to part ways with that contract I was in. And then, so then, we were kind of on our own. We didn't own the contacts. [...] None of us spoke fluent Japanese. [...] It's also quite expensive to keep bringing me across, like, two countries to Japan. [...] Two years, but like, such a big legacy.

I carried on with my YouTube channel, and I tried to, you know, change what I was doing a little bit based on reflecting my interests at the time. It kind of got to a point where, you know, I'm still recording my dances, but there was a lot of eyes on me. It felt like a lot of pressure. And so, yeah, I just kind of decided to just to, maybe, put a pause on my dancing videos, and I never really picked it up again.
