Priscillia Ludosky (born 4 November 1985) is one of the founders of the yellow vest movement. On 29 May 2018, she published an online petition about the need for 'lower taxes on essential goods, the implementation of the citizens' initiative referendum, lower pensions and salaries of senior officials and elected officials'. In September 2018, she sought more attention for the petition, eventually attracting national attention from Le Parisien.
Éric Drouet reached out to Ludosky in October 2018, and the two joined their causes and called for their first protest on 17 November 2018. They, along with other activists, would meet with a number of government officials to express their concerns. They had a falling-out in January 2019.
Ludosky claims legitimacy as a leader of the yellow vest movement because of the 1.19 million people who signed her petition. Beyond the goals of the yellow vest movement, Ludosky is an environmentalist. She is the 9th candidate within the Europe Ecologie - Les Verts list for the 2024 European Parliament election.
Her family moved from Martinique to mainland France in the 1980s. In May 2016, after working in international finance at BNP Paribas for eleven years, Ludosky created Fall in Cos', an online organic cosmetics and aromatherapy company.
