Since her rise to fame on TikTok, fans have wanted to know about Charli D’Amelio‘s boyfriend, who she’s dating now and what happened with her on-again, off-again boyfriend, Lil Huddy.
Charli started her TikTok in May 2019 after creating dance videos on her friends’ accounts. “I got started with TikTok because all of my friends were using the app and posting on their accounts. I didn’t have an account, so I was just dancing on their phones and I’d be like, ‘Oh, can you send me that? That’s so cool,’” she told Variety in 2020. “Eventually I decided to make my own account because I was having so much fun making all of these dance videos with my friends. I got the app, I started dancing, my videos started getting a little bit more popular on the app and a lot has happened since then. Now I’m here getting to do stuff like this.”
In November 2020, Charli, who reached 1 million followers less than two years prior, became the first TikTok creator to reach 100 million followers. Though she’s received brand deals and sponsorships as a result of her TikTok fame, Charlie told Entertainment Tonight in 2020 about the side effects of the attention. “When you start noticing yourself getting into that place where you’re like ‘Wow, these people are more invested in seeing us fail than they want to actually see us be happy together,” she said at the time. “It can be really detrimental, and you just have to stay true to yourself. It happens with friendships, relationships… everything.”
Charli also told Variety in 2020 about how her friendships have changed due to her social media status. “At first, it was really uncomfortable because when TikTok started, it was kind of like, ‘Oh, you’re on TikTok? That’s weird,’” she said. “So I wouldn’t tell people. Someone would come up to me and maybe ask for a picture and then someone else would be like, ‘Oh, how do they know you? Like, what are you from?’ I was like, ‘Oh, I do social media. I don’t know,’ and I would get super uncomfortable.”
She said, “Then my friends would be like,” Hey, I saw you in my “For You” page. That’s really strange. It took a lot of this until I could be comfortable saying, “Yeah, TikTok.” I started making videos and didn’t care what others thought. I was just having fun creating them. Since then I switched to an online program for one-on-one education. This is great because I have a very busy schedule. This allows me to schedule my schooling around it and can complete them earlier than usual. I have also made a lot of friends in California.
