Former Viner, Musical.ly (now TikTok) celebrity, and social media influencer Aaliyah Mendes. Shawn Mendes’ younger sister, is also a musician. Aaliyah, who is five years younger than her brother, adopted his practice of acting on social media. In July 2013, she created a Vine account with the alias Princess Aaliyah. She had a quarter of a million followers on the app during its peak use. As Vine closed for good, she made a successful shift to TikTok, where she has garnered more than 690 thousand fans. She is equally engaged across all social media channels. She currently has 32 thousand of subscribers on her YouTube account. On Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, she has 649 thousand, 279 thousand, and 5.5 thousand followers, respectively.
Aaliyah’s Increased Fame
She made the purposeful decision to utilize social media frequently, and she has been true to that choice ever since. She would establish her own online identity and avoid consistently posting the same kind of material. She began on Vine, opening an account there in July 2013, and in a very short time, her following grew rapidly to hundreds of thousands. When Vine was officially discontinued in 2017, she had 245,000 app users.
After leaving Vine, she transferred to TikTok, where she amassed over 690k fans and 9.4m followers by lip-syncing to hit songs and movie and television dialogue in video clips. Her YouTube channel was launched on April 17, 2014. She has 32,000 followers on the video-sharing website despite not publishing a single video!
Aaliyah’s Individual Life
On September 15, 2003, Aaliyah was born in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Her father, Manuel, is a businessman who transacts in bar and restaurant supplies in Toronto, and her mother, Karen, is a real estate agent. From her mother’s side, Aaliyah is English, and her father is Portuguese. She has a lazy eye, just like Shawn, her older brother. She is a high school student right now. Her brother was there at the eighth-grade graduation ceremony the previous year.
As Shawn became a global music phenomenon, the Mendes family’s life unquestionably changed. Shawn’s life has not only been the subject of continual media attention, but also that of his mother, father, and sister. Aaliyah has a sizable following across many social media sites, therefore she needs to exercise caution when using them.
Aaliyah has chosen to use her newfound celebrity for artistic endeavors even if she may not be entirely comfortable with it. Mahogany Lox and Alyssa Shouse, two more prominent social media users, are friends with Aaliyah.
