From TikTok to TV, this jetsetter is ready to make her mark in Hollywood.
TikToker Alix Earle has signed with United Talent Agency (UTA) to represent her in all aspects of the entertainment industry, the company announced on social media March 15.
"UTA is thrilled to welcome viral TikTok sensation Alix Earle in all areas," the statement read. "UTA will help the beauty, fashion and lifestyle phenomenon expand her business across audio, ventures, television and more."

As for Alix, the University of Miami student has captivated her 4.8 TikTok million followers with her makeup routines, "day in my life" videos and trips around the world. Prior to her recent Spring Break getaway to Nashville, she took fans along for the ride as she touched down in places ranging from Dubai to Wyoming.
The 22-year-old—who previously dated Yankees baseball player Tyler Wade—has already become a rising star on the party scene. In February, Alix was spotted at a luxury Viktor and Rolf fragrance party in New York, before appearing the very next day at a Super Bowl bash in Arizona.
Alix's pull has also led to what some fans call the "Alix Earle effect," as she influences viewers to purchase products she recommends.
She even starred in a big fashion campaign for Forever 21 x Juicy Couture. "My first memory shopping at Forever 21 is when I was in middle school," she told E! News of the significance of the moment for her. "We had our middle school dance and it was the first time I was able to go. A bunch of my friends and I went to the mall. We picked up everything we needed for the dance because we wanted to look good."

An activist and an actress on the Freeform show Grownish, Amelie has garnered almost 10 million followers across both TikTok and Instagram. Using her platform for good, the 20-year-old continues to share a socially conscious message with her audience in hopes of inspiring change.
"One person doesn't singularly need to own one niche," she told E! News in an exclusive interview last month. "Specifically, women can be both—engaged in fashion and culture and simultaneously be intellectual and curious and passionate about the world. There isn't one way that a woman has to present herself on the internet, especially when the internet becomes your identity."
And Amelie knows the power her favorite apps holds.
"We have to meet people where they're at and where my generation is at is on social media," said the influencer, honored on Forbes 30 Under 30 Social Media list this past November. "We don't watch the news. We don't read the news. We scroll on social media and most people get their understanding of what's going on in the world through social media. There are so many incredible voices on social media that people need to be paying attention to, because they have their own unique experiences and takes and understandings of the world that I will never be able to share on my platform."
She added, "I really hope that social media continues to become a space where more and more people speak about the really important serious things happening in our world and how we can change them."

She also brings a strong desire to change the narrative.
"Words have power. Take the word anti-aging," she shared in her Jan. 6 TikTok. "We hear it so often we don't even notice the subtext. That aging is bad and should be stopped. Well that's impossible."
Time to flip the script—instead of the tale as old as time, Jennifer suggests using the phrase "pro-aging."
"Such a different feel," she continued. "Pro-aging implies a positive approach: "Prioritizing health, embracing where you are, growing through aging and not being ashamed of it."

The 20-year-old works to educate her 200,000 Instagram followers on the importance of using their voice to evoke change. And Phoebe has her mom to thank for her interest in activism.
"I started caring about reproductive rights because of my mom," she explained to Medium March 1.

She'd come home and tell me about the women she met, girls as young as 14 who couldn't get abortions in their countries; about grown women who couldn't get a prescription for birth control because their doctors demanded to talk to their husbands first —and their husbands controlled their lives."

Grece goes by the motto, "Style has no age." The 58-year-old has taken TikTok by storm, posting her daily outfits, rocking the latest trends, and partnering with fashion brands to showcase her ageless ‘fits.
"I always took good care styling myself and discovering my personal style," she told Glamour in 2021. "I'd invest in building my wardrobe with quality pieces, and I also loved reading and collecting fashion magazines."
As the epitome of chic, Grece spoke about why she feels there are not more style accounts run by women over 40.
"I think the fashion industry is still a little shy to put forward women my age," she shared. "The market feels oversaturated with young fashion accounts, girls in their 20s. However, there are great accounts of women in their 40s, 50s, and older sharing their sense of style."
Grece doesn't believe that age should have any restriction on how you dress.
"It's no secret that I strongly believe that women should remain visible no matter their age and have the freedom to dress as they please," she said. "As long as you dress with confidence, you can pull off any look."

She continued, "None of the Instagram-prescribed solutions worked until I paused, really dove into my unique anxieties and carefully addressed each one. Sometimes it does mean you start incorporating more vegetables where you can, and other times it is as simple as RSVPing ‘no'. Sometimes it is maximizing your skincare regimen and in other cases it might mean that you feel absolutely no pressure to buy a new serum or sweater in order to feel good."
