Stephen Gilchrist Glover (born June 13, 1974), known professionally as Steve-O, is an American stunt performer, comedian, television personality, and podcaster. He rose to fame in the early 2000s as a cast member of the MTV reality comedy series Jackass, which showcased dangerous stunts and pranks and led to a successful film franchise.

Following the success of Jackass, Steve-O appeared in numerous spin-offs, including Wildboyz and Dr. Steve-O, and embarked on comedy tours that mixed stand-up with stunt performances. He released a memoir, Professional Idiot (2011), and later built a following through his YouTube channel and podcast Steve-O's Wild Ride!.

Steve-O has been open about his struggles with substance abuse, which led to several legal and health issues in the mid-2000s. After an intervention by his Jackass co-stars in March 2008, he entered treatment and is now an advocate for recovery and animal rights.

Born in Wimbledon, London to a Canadian mother and American father, Steve-O holds Canadian, British, and American citizenships.
