―Alia's intro | ||
Alia Marie "Lia" Shelesh (born: October 22, 1992), better known online as SSSniperWolf (also known as Little Lia), is an English-American YouTuber and Actress, known for her reaction, commentary, DIY videos, vlogs and gaming videos. She is also known for her collaborations with Dhar Mann.
History
Alia Marie Shelesh was born on October 22, 1992 to a Greek father and a Turkish mother in Liverpool, England, United Kingdom. She has two younger brothers and one younger sister. She could speak Arabic fluently when she was younger. Her family moved to Phoenix, Arizona in the United States when she was six years old. When she was 8 years old, her dad bought Alia and her brother a PS1. Lia revealed that she never had a positive relationship with her dad.
Alia graduated High School early, and got a head-start in College, and studied both Pharmacy and Nursing. She later dropped out of College early. Alia started working in Hollister where she was paid minimum wage. She quit after being agitated by her rude manager. She first met Sausage on YouTube, later meeting him at Comic-Con in person.
Her username, SSSniperWolf, comes from Sniper Wolf, is one of the main antagonists and bosses of Metal Gear Solid, It was her favorite game as a kid too. Alia claims that the 'SS' in her name does not mean anything.
Alia originally started her YouTube career in early 2011 on a channel called sexysexysniper making short vlogs. The channel accumulated 50,000 subscribers until 2 years later however when she made a new channel on January 19, 2013, and deleted the old one around mid-2013 most likely due to the name. Since 2017, the majority of the videos that she uploads are reactions and TikTok videos, along with occasional gaming and challenges. From 2020 onwards, she regularly made it to the Trending Page, gaining her intense popularity.
Alia is also known to appear in Dhar Mann's videos as herself. In the videos she is the idol of Sam/Psycho Mantis (played by Sofia Chicorelli Serna), a girl who wants to be a gamer just like her, despite her sexist mother not allowing her. However after Alia gives her a PS5, she becomes a professional gamer and earns a lot of fame and money, and her mother discards her sexist beliefs. This in itself brings more issues such as a bully targeting her due to her fame, but she earns his friendship by paying for his rent and car. "Sam" and SSSniperWolf appear in more miscellaneous videos,[1][2] though with minor roles.

Controversy
Exposing GirlGoneGamer
In October 2015, Alia posted a video claiming that GirlGoneGamer faked the footage in her Call of Duty Let's Plays, going so far as to post a video since set to private claiming to expose GirlGoneGamer.
Sued by Enigmahood
On August 10, 2016, Alia was sued by Engimahood after she slandered him in a video, stating that he was a "convicted sex offender". On September 29, 2017, Enigmhahood's defamation case against Alia was dismissed as he could not prove that her comments affected him in his local area. He was subsequently booked in jail for 2 days.
Accused of lying about Overwatch rank
In February 2017, Alia was accused of lying about reaching the top 500 in Overwatch on her own. Sylvibot suggested that she had enlisted the support of another player to boost her account. Alia responded in a pinned comment on her original top 500 video. Sylvibot responded with another video on February 24, addressing Alia's claims.
Exposed by FaZe Censor
In July 2017, Alia was exposed by FaZe Censor. Evan Sausage and Alia accused him of faking text messages. However, Censor went to Verizon and retrieved his old text messages and conversations with Alia. Then, she violently threatened to sue FaZe Censor for the old text messages FaZe Censor received from Verizon.
Good Mythical Morning
On March 11, 2018, it was announced that Alia would be appearing on the following week's Good Mythical Morning video, but when the announcement video received a high level of dislikes and drew a lot of comments from people, her appearance was canceled and the announcement video was deleted from the channel.
Exposed by Nerd City
On May 18, 2018, Nerd City released a video featuring MaxMoeFoe and Rusty Cage, in which they address Alia's hypocrisy with regards to her comments on other women by showcasing her persistent photo-alterations.
Kids' Choice Awards
On March 23, 2019 and May 2, 2020, Alia won the Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards for Favorite Gamer. This was met with a lot of backlash from many people on the internet who stated that she was not a true gamer, due to the majority of her content being reaction-based as of 2019. Other people began believing that the KCA's were rigged and completely biased considering the other people nominated for Favorite Gamer, such as Markiplier, jacksepticeye and Ninja, who have more gaming based content. Several users then began to put offensive inputs and theories on why she won.
