Mike Dahlquist (born June 23, 1987), better known as Mike Diva, is an American film director, special effects artist, musician and YouTuber.
In June 2016, Diva's video Japanese Donald Trump Commercialトランプ2016 gained international attention, with some 8 million views on Facebook and almost 300,000 views on YouTube in its first 24 hours. The video is presented as a Japanese commercial promoting the Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. The video was shot over a month and a half with virtually no budget and stars the cosplayer and wig stylist known as sushimonstuh.[1][2] Slate described the work as "a dizzying, sorbet-hued phantasmagoria that gestures toward the coming end times."[1]
On August 11, 2016, Diva released a video poking fun of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton for the Super Deluxe channel. The video depicted a fictionalized Clinton attempting to connect with the millennial generation using various internet memes.[3][4]
In 2017, Diva co-wrote and directed a stylized horror spot for Halo Top Creamery titled "Eat The Ice Cream," produced by Lord Danger. The advert made headlines in Adweek,[5] AdAge,[6] IndieWire,[7] Munchies[8] and Gizmodo.[9] It won a number of awards, including AdWeek's Top 10 Ads of 2017.[10]
In 2021, Diva moved to New York City and began directing video shorts for Saturday Night Live.[11]
