Whether you’re a regular on TikTok or not, you’ve probably still encountered sisters Charli and Dixie D’Amelio, whose influence has extended far beyond the social media platform where they first gained popularity. They’re virtually everywhere.
From rising to fame on the app during Covid, to becoming household names on the fashion and entertainment circuit, the D’Amelio sisters have achieved more than most people twice their age. The pair are barely in their 20s – in fact, Dixie is 22 and Charli is just 19.
But, like many social media stars, these ladies have also found themselves embroiled in controversy since becoming famous. In one recent incident, the older D’Amelio faced backlash for saying she doesn’t want to work any more in an episode of The D’Amelio Show, per Insider. “My biggest goal professionally is probably to marry rich. Like, I really don’t want to work any more,” she said.

So, who are they exactly and how did they get here?
Charli And Dixie D’Amelio rose to fame through TikTok
The D’Amelio sisters are part of the ever-expanding TikTok generation. Per Forbes, the girls went viral back in 2019 and practically became overnight celebrities after posting videos of themselves lip-synching in their bedrooms in Connecticut.
They’re the “most popular girls in the world”
The same report by Forbes dubbed them “arguably the most popular girls in the world”. That title might ring true, as Charli is currently the second most followed TikTok account (with 151 million followers) after Khabane Lame, per Statista in August, and Dixie is also No 10 on the list (with 57 million followers on the platform).
They’re dabbling in reality TV and music careers
It seems that everyone wants a slice of the D’Amelio pie.
Since 2021, Hulu has been airing the sisters’ reality TV show The D’Amelio Show which is currently on its third season. Their IMDB rating sits at a rather unimpressive 2.7/10, but we doubt the girls are too worried.

Being among the most famous women in the world today, Charli and Dixie live a plush life.
From renting entire mansions and luxury cars to getting invited to the fashion world’s hottest events, these ladies seem to be enjoying the fruits of their labour.
And have endorsements left, right and centre
These two youngsters have scored plenty of endorsement deals thanks to their colossal influence in the digital world. Per Bloomberg, they’ve landed lucrative gigs with brands including Puma, Prada, Valentino, Chopard and L’Oréal, to name a few. The publication predicts that they have around 50 endorsement partnerships on the go.
