JAKARTA - Charli D'Amelio is the first content creator on TikTok to reach 100 million followers. Even leaving other creators with a far enough number of followers.

Where two other TikTok celebrities have only touched 50 million followers. Call it Kylie Jenner, Selena Gomez or maybe Ariana Grande who also plays on TikTok.

Charli D'Amelio arguably got that many followers in such a short time. Where D'Amelio's first video was posted in May 2019 or a few months after the platform took off globally in August 2018.

Quoted from The Verge, Monday 23 November, in comparison, it took 14 years for creator content on YouTube to get that many subscribers. Of course, as the creator of TikTok D'Amelio is not alone.

D'Amelio, accompanied by his younger brother Dixie, also began to develop his career, not only on TikTok. They also recently released a song and entered the Emerging Artist list on Billboard.

Interestingly, not only D'Amelio and his sister. Her parents, Heidi and Marc, joined the TikTok platform. They also collaborated together in a 'D'Amelio Family' family on the platform.

So far, TikTok has also started paying for content creators. Although the number is not large, TikTok creators are given the freedom to sell their exclusive merchandise on the platform.
