“What does this girl actually do that requires any talent?” Well, apparently a LOT of people think she’s talented, because she has over 33 million followers on Tiktok, 17.7 million followers on Instagram, and 3.5 million followers on Youtube.
Loren Gray entered the social media world in 2015, when she began to create lip syncing videos to popular songs on Musical.ly, an app that later re-branded as Tiktok. Her estimated net worth is $300,000, which is only the beginning for the social media influencer. Recently she signed a record deal and has been releasing songs on her own that are not lip synced (hopefully).
Loren is an example of a new career field that has become a possibility in the rise of the digital age. Now people can make money from creating content online and being paid from ad revenue on their pages. Loren gets paid by Youtube for her videos, which at this time are averaging at $450 a day in revenue. She has also used her social media platform to do sponsored partnerships with companies, such as Nickelodeon. She’s one of the first stars to make a living from Tiktok, and with the growth of the app it looks like she won’t be the last.
This post is so inspirational to all the Tik-Tokers out there who think that what they do is meaningless. I love the fact that in today’s age, someone can become famous for pretty much anything. Regardless of how talented someone actually is they can make it if they just do a few things right.
It’s very interesting how an app like Tik Tok can launch a career. Very interesting post.
