How Much Is Addison Rae Actually Worth?
Addison Rae is a force to be reckoned with on TikTok. The 20-year-old has accumulated a massive following of 79 million-plus followers on the video-sharing platform. And her popularity has transferred over to Instagram, where she boasts an impressive following of more than 37 million followers. Rae hangs out with the likes of Kim Kardashian and her sister Kourtney Kardashian, and (admit it) we're probably all just a little bit jealous of how quickly she rose to fame.
Born Addison Rae Easterling, Rae was just your average student at LSU, living a totally normal life and "studying broadcast journalism," according to Forbes, when some of her TikTok videos went viral. In 2019, people began recognizing her around campus, and that's when she knew she was onto something big. "My name would be called out when I was walking to class, which was pretty mind-blowing," she told the outlet. Rae also explained to Hollywire, "I made a post, and it was just with a friend, and literally, out of nowhere, it got 93,000 likes. I was like, woah. I like this. I like the feel of this." The star kept making more posts, including some videos with her mom. "That was kind of the main thing that blew up," Rae added. She's since dabbled in acting, released a single, and even has a clothing line.
