Bubblicious! A 19-year-old bubble magician is blowing up Hollywood’s backyard party scene — landing gigs for A-listers like Chris Brown and Nick Cannon.
Moscow-born Arman Avetisyan dazzles celebrity crowds with LED-lit illusions, fire effects and choreographed spectacle. But beyond the star-studded parties, he’s focused on giving back.
His goal is simple: bring that same sense of wonder to kids who need it most.
“What I really want to do is perform free bubble shows,” Arman tells The Sun. “People can optionally donate if they enjoy the performance.”
The teen says he plans to give 100% of those donations directly to children’s charities, and has already reached out to organizations like Make-A-Wish and Baby2Baby.
“The children are so genuinely happy,” he says. “You get to see completely honest smiles on their faces. When I arrived in the U.S., I immediately started thinking about how to replicate those charity events here.”
That mission traces back to his childhood in Moscow, where he first performed for community groups.
“I started when I was about 10 years old,” he recalls. “I really liked organized events, youth parties, and little activities.”
Entirely self-taught, Arman learned the craft through online videos, experimenting with soap formulas and even building his own props — turning a childhood hobby into a growing business.
Now, three years after moving to Los Angeles, he’s balancing classes at Glendale Community College with a packed calendar of weekend gigs. He also performs regularly at daycares, preschools and elementary schools.
Never miss a single story!
And this isn’t your typical bubble show — his act blends costumes, music and special effects.
“I’ve never seen anyone do it quite like me,” he says.
Arman was recently hired to entertain a birthday party for one of Cannon’s 12 children, and has also performed for Brown, Chanel West Coast and a slate of digital influencers. He has been featured on KTLA and Fox 11 in Los Angeles even applied for the most recent season of America’s Got Talent.
Now, he’s hoping his next big audience won’t be celebrities — but kids who need a reason to smile.
