Behind the Influence

Baby Ariel - On Her Musical.ly Journey, the Power of Authencitiy, and Her New Single Wildside

When Baby Ariel started creating lip-sync videos for fun at her Grandma's house, she had no idea she would build an empire of 30 Million fans a long the way. Ariel has achieved her success through mindful authenticity, and she was just as down to earth and real during our interview. Ariel discusses her rise on Musical.ly (now TikTok), her latest single Wildside, and how being unapologetically herself allowed her to pursue her other passions, like writing a book and fulfilling her bucket list dream of directing.
