Flula Borg (born 28 March 1982) is a German actor, DJ, comedian, musician, and YouTube personality. Borg began his career as a traditional Bavarian dancer in his native Germany before transitioning to acting and comedy. He became widely known in part by posting funny videos on his YouTube channel "Flula", which launched several appearances on the American comedy circuit, such as a frequent panelist role on @Midnight. In addition to live-action acting, Borg is also a frequent voice actor in Hollywood productions — basically, if you need a German dude for a comedy, he's your guy.

Tropes in his career:
- The Cast Showoff: His roles make use of his musical background, such as the leader of an acapella troupe in Pitch Perfect and a DJ in Rescue Rangers.
- Literal-Minded: Part of his humor involves taking English phrases literally, as he lacks the cultural context of those phrases as a German speaker. For example, he takes the phrase "Suck my dick!" as a literal command to someone else to put the speaker's dick in their mouth.
