Check out our interview with the social media star below in which she dives into her life as an influencer, singer, and what's next for her.
You are an outspoken advocate who celebrates body positivity, and I can’t express in words how much your videos mean to people. How did you become so confident yourself, and what made you want to share that with others?
"A lot of my confidence came from having body image issues growing up on social media. From a young age scrolling online, I recognized how toxic a lot of the images were online and how it was affecting my self-confidence. So I started to reassure myself and others to be confident in yourself. If you compare yourself to others, you will never be truly happy because you are not like anyone else. You are 100% uniquely you and you should celebrate that."
I love that, and it clearly resonates with so many people. Speaking of celebrating, not only do you make content for social media that everyone loves, but you’ve also entered the world of music! Your debut single ‘My Crown’ released last year is inspired by your rise as an influencer but with a comedic twist. Have you always been interested in music? Who/What are some of your musical influences.
"I’ve always had a love for music! It has always helped me to express myself even when I couldn’t find the words. A lot of my musical influences for this project were Ava Max, Rebecca Black and Taylor Swift."
Just in time for the holidays, you released a Christmas song, ‘My Sleigh,’ along with new merch! We are loving this new song, it’s a great Christmas playlist breakup from all of the classics people cover every year. What made you want to release a Christmas song, and what inspired it?
"My Sleigh happened to be one of the remixes of My Crown that didn’t make it onto the album last year because I didn’t have the time to record it. So I thought it would be fun to release a silly Christmas song a year after the original project."
Well, your talents don't just stop with
music. Your modeling skills are insane – you’re a natural! What are some of your favorite brands you have worked with?
"I love modeling! I really fell in love with it after attending Coco Rocha's modeling camp in New York. I haven’t worked with any brands in a modeling campaign yet, but I hope to do that in the near future!"
I have no doubt we will be seeing you in a modeling campaign soon! Speaking of your creativity, I just recently binged Wednesday on Netflix (it’s incredible!) and have been loving your unique, Wednesday-inspired content on TikTok – especially the Enid-inspired looks. We have to know, what show are you binging right now?
"I’ve definitely been watching a lot of Ru Paul’s Drag Race recently! It’s been one of my favorites since middle school, but I’ve been re-bingeing it again now."
A binge-worthy show for sure. So, what’s next for you? Can we expect a full Christmas album next year? More music? Maybe even some acting or more modeling?
"The biggest thing you can expect coming up is my podcast with my best friend Nicole Stephens titled, Clueless! We have been working on developing this for the past year and we can’t wait to release it in February!"
We can't wait to listen to her podcast, Clueless, releasing in February and see what else is next for her!
