TikTok superstar Charli D'Amelio revealed secrets to success on The Tonight Show
Charli D'Amelio has become one of TikTok's biggest stars, boasting 35 million followers and 2 billion likes on the platform.
15-year-old TikTok star Charli D'Amelio stopped by "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon" to share the wisdom she's gathered along the way to accruing 35 million followers and 2 billion likes on the platform.
TikTok fame, D'Amelio said, can start with having one lucky viral video. In her case, a dance tutorial duet with TikTok user move_with_joy, posted on her way to a summer dance camp.
"It was 90 likes and then it was 10,000 likes," she recalled. "It got up to — before I walked into dance class, it was 50,000 likes."
As for what she's learned about making videos? Always film in the bathroom. "It has the best lighting," she explained.
More importantly, TikTok success requires a genuine passion for the content you're creating.
"You just have to be authentic," D'Amelio said. "You can't fake a smile. You have to do what you actually enjoy."
While the 15-year-old "loves" TikTok and the opportunity to be creative, viral fame comes with challenges. D'Amelio appeared on the show to promote her partnership with UNICEF for Internet Safety Day, hoping to raise awareness about cyberbullying — an issue that hits close to home.
