Many teenagers—who we may identify as Generation Z—found their idol celebrities, not through TV, but a huge and expanding micro-vlogging platform known as TikTok. Formerly known as a lip-syncing social media app called Musical.ly, TikTok has been continuously breeding new young celebrities with millions of followers. This made possible considering hundreds of millions of users are already registered to the app, and the number continues to grow.
Believe it or not, many of these TikTok creators have substantially more fans or followers compared to some of the most popular established celebrities in the likes of Bruno Mars and Ariana Grande on any of their social media accounts (i.e. YouTube). As a result, more and more brands are aiming to use TikTok creators to boost their marketing campaigns by cross-promoting their brand through the vast networks the creators have built.
The amount of money these influencers only willing to receive to endorse product are no small amount either. Back on their days creating content on Musical.ly, they may charge tens or even hundreds of thousand dollars per sponsored content, according to Influencer Marketing Hub. These numbers can only continue to increase. With TikTok’s distinct characteristic that enables users to engage with each other in a small-size video, and how big TikTok has become, influencers are given the power to translate their exposure into a mini business empire.
Here are some of the top highest-earning TikTok creators.
