Amelia Dimoldenberg has announced that her internet show Chicken Shop Date is coming to an end.<\/p>\n
The show saw the 32-year-old interview celebrities in local chicken shops, with the interaction framed as a date.<\/p>\n
The presenter began the series when she was just 17, and moved it to YouTube in 2014, where her channel has since gained more than three million subscribers.<\/p>\n
In a letter to her viewers shared on social media, Dimoldenberg wrote: “When I was 17, I thought that I might meet the love of my life on a date in a chicken shop.<\/p>\n
“Since then, I’ve spent my entire twenties sat across from the most incredible people, people I’d always dreamt of meeting.<\/p>\n
“All of them charmed me (some more than others), and I definitely charmed them.<\/p>\n
“To me, the show is my very own romcom, and I have loved being able to share it with you.<\/p>\n
“I am so grateful to everyone who has followed me on this journey and found a bit of joy in these episodes.”<\/p>\n
\n
Dimoldenberg said she “never thought” she would end Chicken Shop Date but now feels it is time to “move on”.<\/p>\n
She promised a final batch of episodes will be released “very soon”.<\/p>\n
Some of the most memorable episodes featured interviews with Andrew Garfield, Billie Eilish, Cher, Louis Theroux, and Jack Harlow.<\/p>\n
Dimoldenberg’s most recent guests include Conan O’Brien, Paul McCartney, and Zara Larsson.<\/p>\n
Chicken Shop Date began as a column in a publication called The Cut, where Dimoldenberg interviewed grime artists and had the idea to frame them as dates.<\/p>\n
The first interview filmed for YouTube was with the rapper Ghetts in March 2014.<\/p>\n
Since then, Dimoldenberg has founded her own production company and reported from the red carpet at the Academy Awards and the Golden Globe Awards.<\/p>\n
She also made a cameo appearance as herself in The Devil Wears Prada 2.<\/p>\n
