FAME TO LAME

Charli D’Amelio, Dixie D’Amelio, Addison Rae, Lilhuddy, Jxdn, Loren Gray and Baby Ariel. These are all examples of TikTokers that failed at pursuing music careers. From dancing to popular TikTok sounds to making average music, these people should stop trying to do things they’re clearly not good at. Like singing.

TikTok fame clearly isn’t enough for this sorry bunch, despite having over 100 million followers. Dixie D’Amelio tried starting a music career with the release of her debut song ‘Be Happy’, where she stated that sometimes she doesn’t want to be happy. How inspiring. The comments contain many people simply saying “trash”.

One comment even said, “Before listening to this song, I was paralyzed and had to be in a wheelchair. But after listening to this song, I was able to stand up and turn it off. Thank you.”

Following in the footsteps of her sister, Charli D’Amelio released her debut song ‘If You Ask Me Too’. This younger sister received just as much backlash, not only for the heavily auto tuned song, but also for “copying her big sister”.

Once TikTok sensations, these two sisters have lost their shine. Less and less news stories have been about them and it almost seems they’ll do anything to stay in the spotlight. Thus further proving that TikTokers should stick to their 30 second dancing videos and avoid singing at all costs.
