Charli D'Amelio's rise on TikTok

D'Amelio has become synonymous with TikTok and joined the Hype House influencer squad in May 2020. She broke a TikTok record. She was the first user to amass 100 million followers, according to Forbes. "We realize nothing lasts forever — there will be ups and downs," she said, referring to her family. "We're only here to make the most of our time and do as much as we can," she added.

"I'm just proud of everything I've been able to do in such a short period of time. Normally I don't talk about myself like that, but looking back and seeing videos of all the things I've been able to do in such a short period of time it's just like, wow, that's really crazy and something I obviously never expected," she told ET.
