Music Career and Public Opinions
In June 2010, when Kissie was 17, she began a music career. She recorded a song called "Success." It was released a month later.
Kissie also shared her thoughts on politics. She wrote about the 2010 Swedish general election. She encouraged her readers to think carefully about who they voted for.
Important Rules for Bloggers
As a popular blogger, Kissie learned about rules for advertising. In 2017, a group in Sweden that protects consumers looked at her blog. They wanted to make sure that ads were always clear.
Sometimes, it was hard to tell if a product was a personal recommendation. It could also be a paid advertisement. It is important for bloggers to clearly show when something is an ad.
In 2018, it was decided that some of Kissie's posts needed to be clearer. This helped make sure readers knew what was an advertisement.
Name Change and Identity
In 2019, Kissie shared some news on a podcast. She decided to change her last name. She changed it from Nilsson to Pietruniak. This was her mother's family name from Poland.
Kissie felt that "Nilsson" was a common name. She wanted a name that showed her unique identity. She realized it was "cool" to have a background that was not only Swedish.
When she first shared her Polish background, some people reacted negatively. However, Kissie embraced her heritage.
Closing Her Blog
In 2020, Kissie made a big decision. She closed her blog and removed all its old posts. She explained that she no longer felt proud of her past blog content.
She felt that the blog had taken a lot from her. Even so, she was grateful for the chances it gave her. It helped her become a unique person.
Kissie said she would continue to be active online. She planned to use platforms like YouTube and Instagram.
