Many of you have probably heard or seen the “corn kid” on TikTok. 7-year-old, Tarik, is a corn connoisseur and his TikTok has gone viral on TikTok in the past few weeks. Tarik didn’t stop by just going viral on TikTok, he is trying to make some money off of his fame. His video alone has gotten over 23 million views on TikTok and 3 million views on youtube. To make some money Tarik has started selling personal videos of him talking about corn. He has sold 21 of these videos already, charging anywhere from 150-500 dollars. The University of Nebraska was a customer of Tarik, in which they received a video of him saying “It’s cornhusker football, I couldn’t imagine a more beautiful thing. This Nebraska team has the juice! Have a corn-tactic season huskers.” Tarik is showing some young entrepreneurial traits by taking advantage of his fame and making some money off of it. It’ll be interesting to see if Tarik is able to continue his fame or if it will just be a one-time thing. I have attached the original youtube video that Tarik starred in, the sound of this video is now going viral on TikTok and youtube as well.
