TikTok star Charli D’Amelio danced her way into network television viewers’ hearts on “The Tonight Show” Tuesday. (See the clip above.)
D’Amelio, known for her dance videos on the short-form video app, writes in her bio on her profile, “don’t worry i don’t get the hype either,” pres
umably referring to her fame. But her 35 million followers might disagree — as would the hundreds of thousands of YouTube viewers clicking madly on her fun moment with Jimmy Fallon.
The Connecticut teenager, dubbed the “reigning queen of TikTok” by The New York Times, instructed the host on how to do eight TikTok dances, with Fallon joining in on the last one.
D’Amelio also told Fallon in a sit-down chat (see below) that she prefers to shoot her videos in the bathroom because that’s where the lighting is best.
