TikTok star

Short-video internet celebrity

A TikTok star is someone who has gained fame and a large following on the video-sharing platform TikTok.

The term implies celebrity status within that ecosystem—millions of followers, viral content, brand deals.

Like other social media fame, TikTok stardom can be fleeting: She was a TikTok star for six months before the algorithm moved on.
