Charli D’Amelio, the Queen of TikTok has a lot to celebrate after gaining 100 million followers on the platform since she posted her first video last May. The sixteen-year-old sensation now has about 6 million more than Rihanna has on Instagram, for context. She’s collabed with Eos, Morphe, and Hollister, as well as YouTube sensations like James Charles, David Dobrik and the Hype House. Not only is the star fearless in her response to body-shamers, she’s also quick to defend other stars who have been bullied online. Recently, Charli has bravely opened up about her struggles with an eating disorder, and even partnered with Unicef to raise awareness about the issue. Charli has also partnered with Proctor & Gamble to promote social distancing, donated $50,000 to a hospital in her hometown, and plans to announce a scholarship for dancers. When she isn’t supporting charitable endeavours, Charli is supporting her fellow media stars. There’s no sibling rivalry between Charli and her elder sister Dixie, a rising star on TikTok that Charli has collabed with many times. She’s also collabed with her biggest competition for stardom – Addison Rae – and proudly supports Addison’s content. Perhaps most stunned by her fame, Charli is always grateful for her fans, gives credit to other creators when they inspire her content, and meets controversy with dignity. When Charli was met with backlash after a dinner prepared for her family by Chef Aaron May went badly, the star took to TikTok to recognize her team’s hard work, thank her team, and clear up any misunderstandings. With D’Amelio’s bubbly personality, charitable work and dedication to her fans, she’s become a role model for her generation. 0:00 Teaser 00:38 She speaks up for herself 01:28 She admits her wrong doings 02:43 Body positive 03:37 She’s normal person 04:18 She gives back 05:03 She supports other content creators 05:43 She’s helped raise awareness for social distancing 06:04 She isn’t afraid to make fun of herself 06:27 Despite being a competitive dancer, her dancing style is approachable 06:57 She doesn’t compete with her older sister 07:48She’s still stunned by her fame 08:28 Viewer-friendly content 09:04 She gives credit where it’s due 09:47 She loves her family 10:32 She’s inspired others to be generous too 11:01 Outro 11:18 End Written by: Marlena N.
