Despite being the second most-followed (now third) TikToker, she was the highest-paid in 2020, reportedly earning $5 million before tax.
The 20-year-old from Louisiana only started posting her dancing videos on TikTok in 2019 but, like Charli D'Amelio, she soon shot to fame.
And given that she's one of the platform's biggest stars, she wasn't happy about Donald Trump's proposed ban of the Chinese app in the US last year.
Her TikTok username is @addisonre.
