Rae, who is the highest-paid TikToker with $5 million earnings last year, had recently spoken about looking at a career in acting.

"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 in an exclusive interview with Entertainment Tonight.
