fun facts:
nora penelope vitale was born in englewood, new jersey to your everyday âaverageâ italian ( theyâre very proud of that part ) family ! when sheâs not on the ship, she still lives at home with her parents, grandparents, and little brother, and she doesnât care if you judge her for it ! family means everything to her !
sheâs the oldest of two â having a little brother named nate who means the absolute world to her ! legit, she would die for that boy !
her bestest friend in the entire world is @jamesffsâ, having known him all her life !
nora actually grew up as quite the tomboy ! she has an undeniable love for skateboarding and video games, but donât let that fool you, sheâs also incredibly girly at times !
sheâs a massive music junkie ! itâs definitely her favorite pastime ! thereâs rarely a minute that goes by where she doesnât have some kind of music playing - whether itâs out loud or through headphones !
sheâs actually got a very beautiful singing voice ( which led to quite a bit of fame, but weâll get to that later ! ), though she didnât believe people at first when they would tell her that !
when she was sixteen, she and two of her best friends got together and filmed a cover video for one of their favorites songs and decided to take a risk and post it to her youtube channel ! sure, it was a long stretch to post on a personal channel, but she was willing to experiment and see what people thought about it !
much to her surprise, the cover ended up going viral, and after a number of people suggesting they do it regularly, the trio decided to form an official band, naming themselves âchasing ghostsâ !
instead of posting their covers to her personal channel, nora created a youtube channel strictly for their band, and they began to post a cover a week to their channel ! as of today, their bandâs youtube channel has just over 1m subscribers !
chasing ghosts turned out to be quite the hit around new jersey and often did sold out local gigs in and around the state !
later on in their career, chasing ghosts also had the honor of being the opening act for a number of well known bands, but the opportunity that nora will forever brag about the most is having the chance to open up for her favorite band ever; panic! at the disco  !
chasing ghosts even had the chance to be a part of the 2017 warped tour lineup, which is something that nora will never forget !
chasing ghosts has released a couple of albums, but they were all produced independently, as theyâve never been signed to a proper record label !
noraâs other passion ? food. after all, how can someone whoâs family is always cooking not be obsessed with food, right ? her favorite ? pasta, of course !
noraâs not the best cook in the world, but her nonna is doing her best to teach her everything she knows, and sheâs definitely getting better !
bit of a random fact, but if she was going to be in that âcinnamon rollâ meme, sheâd be the âlooks like a cinnamon roll, could actually kill youâ one ! noraâs super duper sweet and adorable, but is very blunt and outspoken ! donât cross her unless youâre prepared to handle the aftermath of her wrath !
noraâs very much a people person ! she puts the ones she cares about above herself and will go above and beyond to make sure that her friends and family are taken care of and happy !
sheâs also a massive empath ! other peopleâs emotions affect her greatly, even when she doesnât want them to !
a little over a year ago, nora was granted an academic scholarship to ss university and is now in her second semester ! she put her love for music and her desire for helping others together and is now working towards a music therapy major !
tldr :
nora was born in new jersey and lives there with her family when sheâs not on the ship. sheâs a very proud italian who loves video games, food, singing, family & helping people. sheâs jamesâ lifelong bff. sheâs a tomboy most of the time, but she also has a bit of a girly side now and again. she has an incredibly popular youtube channel for her band, chasing ghosts, that she formed with two of her best friends when she was sixteen. chasing ghosts has performed a number of local gigs around new jersey. years after being created, chasing ghosts had the chance to open up for multiple big name bands; panic! at the disco being the most exciting for young nora. they even got to be a part of the 2017 warped tour line up. chasing ghosts has released quite a number of albums, but all of them were independently produced due to the fact that they werenât signed to a label. sheâs slowly learning how to cook and will willingly feed anyone whoâs open to trying her dishes. sheâs basically the embodiment of the 'looks like a cinnamon roll, could actually kill you' meme. sheâs a total empath and goes out of her way to make sure the people she cares about are taken care of. sheâs attending ss university on scholarship and is working towards a music therapy major.
