Merry Christmas, Merry Chrysler explained and where the Vine girl is now

Publish date: 2024-05-06

The iconic ‘Merry Chrysler’ girl blessed our Vine feed back in 2015 but, for one reason or another, the hilarious (but intentional) mispronunciation of ‘Merry Christmas’ has stuck with us.

Holding just as much comedic value today, the Vine continues to make a comeback each holiday season – but where is the ‘Merry Chrysler’ girl now? Here’s what we know.

What is the ‘Merry Chrysler’ Vine?

If you’re not familiar, the ‘Merry Chrysler’ clip comes from the now-defunct short-form video app, Vine. Think TikTok before TikTok was a thing.

Posted by user Christine Sydelko back in 2015, the premise of the video is that she hilariously mispronounces ‘Christmas’. The clip, which is still quoted today, gained serious traction at the time and ended up boasting over 323,000 likes 152,000 revines, and over 101 million loops.

The video ended up spreading across all major social media platforms, including Twitter and Instagram.

Christmas video makes annual comeback

If Mariah Carey’s festive tune playing on repeat in ever store isn’t enough of a giveaway that we’re approaching Christmas, the annual comeback of the ‘Merry Chrysler’ Vine serves as a great reminder.

It’s been over six years since the original Vine was posted, but it’s still just as humorous as ever.

One person tweeted: “Yup still saying merry chrysler.”

Another wrote: “my mom listing all the packages coming in the mail today and me shamelessly telling her they’re all mine. merry chrysler to me.”

Where is Christine Sydelko now?

Christine Sydelko AKA the ‘Merry Chrysler’ girl launched into a world of internet fame in 2015, but what is she up to now?

Well, now in her mid-twenties, the comedian made quite the career for herself over on YouTube after her Vine stardom.

As reported by Cosmopolitan, Sydelko earned herself over 1.3 million YouTube subscribers by 2019, vlogging with Elijah Daniel in 2015, before going solo in 2018.

Sadly, Christine decided to call in quits on her YouTube career a few years ago. As per Cosmopolitan, the comedian explained: “I quit the internet stuff just fyi it’s such a trivial job i can’t stand the people getting in fake drama for attention or acting like they’re a creative when they just film themselves living it was sorta fun while it lasted but i value my privacy more than followers now see ya.”

You can, however, still watch the comedian’s old YouTube videos here.

Likewise, Sydelko also still seems to be active on her Instagram account and boasts almost 700k followers.
