TikTok is home to numerous well-known personalities. TikTok has proven to be the ideal platform for videos to reach millions of fans and quickly rise to fame.
With 75 language versions and availability in over 150 regions, and people now getting free TikTok followers, the site is now becoming the leading social media platform.
This article lists the five most popular TikTok stars in the world.
Khaby Lame
Italian TikToker Khaby Lame has acquired the most fans on the platform, overtaking earlier TikTok stars like Addison Rae and Charli D’Amelio.
One of Lame’s most popular videos on the platform is a commentary on someone else’s banana-peeling technique, and he has already exceeded the likes of Dixie D’Amelio, Zach King, and Bella Poarch in the number of reactions he has created.
There is no indication that the star’s popularity is declining. The likelihood of him maintaining his reign over TikTok for the foreseeable future is high.
D’Amelio, Charli
Even if Charli D’Amelio is no longer the most popular user on TikTok, she is still the platform’s indisputable queen.
It’s astounding how quickly she rose to fame. During her meteoric climb to fame, she amassed over 9.0 million YouTube subscribers and worked with notable artists like Noah Schnapp and Marshmello.
After uploading videos of herself dancing, D’Amelio gained instant recognition. The fact that she was the app’s first star to appear in a Super Bowl commercial is historic, no matter how you look at it. She also appeared in the video for Chase Hudson’s single “America’s Sweetheart.”
Bella Poarch
In a record-breaking timeframe of just a year, Bella Poarch’s fame has skyrocketed. Since creating their TikTok account in April 2020, the American-Filipino celebrity has acquired over 90 million followers, making them the third-most-followed user on the app, overtaking Addison Rae in the process.
Before she became famous, the actress served in the navy. For her hilarious TikToks centered around video games, she quickly rose to fame.
Rae Addison
Addison Rae is soon surpassing Charli D’Amelio in popularity on TikTok. She first got popular on TikTok, where videos of her dance choreography went viral; she now has a sizable following on YouTube.
TikTok is just one source of revenue for this young celebrity, who appears to have a bright future and is reportedly generating $8.5 million each year. The actor has since developed a fragrance line and a skin spray called Screen Break, and inked a multi-film agreement with Netflix after the success of Netflix’s “He’s All That.” The reality show “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” featured her as a guest star. She’s also signed up to star in the upcoming film Fashionista.
Will Smith
Celebrities like Will Smith are getting in on the TikTok action by making their own videos with the app’s most popular filters, songs, and content.
Although Smith’s TikTok following has remained relatively stable since he originally joined the platform, he surged to the fifth position that April 2022, most likely due to the publicity he received after slapping comedian Chris Rock on the red carpet at the 2022 Oscars.
