“I’ve spent my entire twenties sat across from the most incredible people, people I’d always dreamt of meeting...” At just 17, Dimoldenberg launched Chicken Shop Date as a column before turning the concept into the YouTube series we know today. Since then, the show has welcomed the likes of Cynthia Erivo, Billie Eilish, Keke Palmer, Sean Paul, and Aitch across more than a hundred episodes. But now, the 32-year-old is calling time on her iconic dating show. Chicken Shop Date will be a part of me forever, but I feel like it’s now time to move on from this adventure and onto a new one.But before I say goodbye, I want to celebrate everything Chicken Shop Date has been for me with a few final dates… coming very soon x pic.twitter.com/Ce53P70sFG "But before I say goodbye forever, I want to celebrate everything Chicken Shop Date has been for me with you all, and a few final dates… coming very soon," Dimoldenberg added. 12 years of making famous people look human over chips.

While she didn’t get the answer she was hoping for, she did at least get a response. "It was a no, but it was a reply," she joked. "And I was sooo happy to get a reply."
