Addison Rae Discusses Negativity Of Being A Recognizable TikTok Star, Expanding Her Empire & More

Addison Rae, who was recently named the highest-paid TikToker, opened up about expanding her empire while also talking about "the negativity" of being a recognizable TikTok influencer.

Rae recently spoke to Entertainment Tonight about expanding her opportunities. She revealed that apart from her new podcast, "Mama Knows Best," she is also coming up with a cosmetic line.

"It's really just a little bit of everything. I enjoy so many things, and I think it's slowly just coming to the point where I can do those things and I'm gradually getting more in-depth in things I've always loved and enjoyed," she told the outlet.

Rae also revealed that she is looking at a career in acting and fashion.

"I've done lots of classes. I've read tons of scripts... I think it's always a really exciting conversation and a long and very hard journey, but it's always worth it in the end. Hopefully, that'll continue to be a part of my life and maybe something big will come out of it," she said.

"Fashion is always so much fun. Discovering new things and trying things out -- I mean, they don't always work, don't get me wrong! But I think, yeah, it would definitely be super fun... hopefully one day having something of my own or even with my mom or my family, just continuing to expand our brand," she added.

Rae also spoke about "the negativity" of being a TikTok star.

"Just dealing with the fact that there are gonna be people that just don't like you, and will always have something negative to say about you. But there are so many good parts about this industry, and the social media world, that it kind of just outweighs it. At the end of the day, I have to look at the positive and not look at the negative. And the positive has brought me so many great things," she said, adding that a strong bond with the family has helped her stay positive.

"They're here. They're supporting me. They love me. I've done so many great things in such a short amount of time, and I think it's just always about stepping back, appreciating everything you have and everything you receive. And really just thanking everyone around you and appreciating them and their time too," she told Entertainment Tonight.
