What do you usually do when you get bored? Open TikTok, obviously! From lip-sync videos to daily-life hacks to comedic impressions, TikTok has ALL of it and it continues to be one of the most popular social media platforms.
While there are innumerable accounts on the app, let’s take a look at the top 5 most popular ones among them who are ruling TikTok with their follower count.
5. Addison Rae
A TikTok star whose follower count stopped growing in 2023 yet remains one of the top 5 most popular stars, yes, that is Addison Rae! Addison has over 88.8 million followers because of her appealing lifestyle and BOMB choreography videos. However, her success is not just limited to TikTok as she has signed a multi-film deal with Netflix, appeared on “Keeping Up With The Kardashians”, and even launched her own fragrances and beauty products!
4. Bella Poarch
The 2020 lockdown proved to be a boon for Bella when her newly-created account became viral on TikTok and currently has over 94.2 million followers! Other than TikTok, Bella Poarch is also ruling YouTube with her music videos like ‘Build a Bitch’, ‘Dolls’, and ‘Inferno’. Moreover, she has also walked in Rihanna’s Savage x Fenty Vol. 3 fashion show and signed as the Brand Ambassador of HyperX.
3. MrBeast
One you can be assured of taking the “Most Followed Person” position pretty soon on TikTok is our very own Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson. While his YouTube account has over 295 million subscribers, MrBeast is making his name on TikTok faster than anyone could have thought, with over 96.7 million followers currently. And obviously, we cannot miss his humanitarian activities that are loved beyond the boundaries of any social media apps!
2. Charli D’Amelio
Even though her long stretch as the most followed person on TikTok has ended, Charli’s success has known no bounds since she first became viral on the platform. With over 155.3 million followers on TikTok, Charli D’Amelio also became the first person to reach 10 billion likes on the platform. You probably would have seen Charli in Chase Hudson’s “America’s Sweetheart” music video as well, and the title is truly justified for her!
1. Khaby Lame
When Khaby Lame’s reaction videos started to get viral, most of us already knew he would be ruling TikTok in no time. And there it is, as he sits in the number 1 position for years with more than 162.6 million followers! His simple yet hilarious reaction videos received love from people of all age groups and it is safe to say, unlike other TikTok stars, Khaby’s follower count just keeps going up.
These TikTok stars show how you just need to be creative (and of course, also have a little bit of luck on your side!) to become a viral sensation on the platform. However, as TikTok’s popularity continues to grow, we will definitely be seeing the dynamics of these lists changing pretty fast.
