Vladimir Calixte is best known for his YouTube character Haitian V - a hilarious middle aged Haitian residing in Brooklyn, NY.

The first time I watched a Haitian V episode was for his Two Girls One Cup Reaction. SO FUNNY! I still laugh every time I watch it.




A few years ago, a friend, DJ Mo Chedda, asked Calixte, who does several Caribbean accents flawlessly, if he could create a character to appear on a trio of videos Chedda wanted to put on YouTube.

"He [Haitian V] didn't even have a name," Calixte said. "We were walking down the street and I said [switching into Haitian V], 'You know, I don't play soccer, I don't play basketball. Dat's not a human sport. A human sport is football. You people call dat soccer, but dat's football, 'cause you take your foot and you're kicking de ball.

"He said, 'Yeah, yeah, that's it!' We went in, and I borrowed a blazer and I had this hat, my late grandfather's [Adolph Charles] hat - which Haitian V still wears - and did the three skits."

Mo Chedda came up with the name Haitian V.

The skit featuring Haitian V took off. Online fans were begging for more, but Calixte wanted to do other projects.

We love the talented actor's work, and we are eager to see his contributions to the world of film and entertainment as he undertakes new projects and possibly new roles. Currently the artist is preparing a comedic mixtape, college shows and other venues.
