TikTok is the biggest social platform in the world right now, offering a wide variety of content for everyone to enjoy, from dancing to comedy. In addition to the substantial number of regular people who use the app, a lot of celebrities have — not surprisingly — jumped on to promote their work, make videos for fun, or even revitalize their flagging careers.
But TikTok is also creating a new generation of celebrities and influencers — and while some of these people have become big stars in their own right, others have had a little help. Yep, some of the most popular TikTokers happen to have some serious pedigree: Their parents are high-profile celebrities we all know and love, and that's given them a leg up when it comes to finding TikTok fame.
From Romeo Beckham to Alabama Barker, these celebrity kids are keeping us all entertained on TikTok — while proving that talent definitely runs in the family. And the best part? Their famous parents sometimes make surprise cameos in their videos, resulting in some seriously hilarious and entertaining antics. Here are 10 of them to check out the next time you're on TikTok.
Iris Apatow
Iris Apatow is the 18-year-old daughter of director Judd Apatow (Superbad, This Is 40) and actress Leslie Mann (George of the Jungle, The Other Woman). She has a following of nearly 300,000 and is the spitting image of her mother. Her videos routinely feature her family or other famous friends, including singer and actress Olivia Rodrigo.
Aniya Wayans
Damon Wayans Jr.'s 16-year-old daughter, Aniya Wayans, has more than 320,000 followers on the platform. She often showcases her famous family in her videos, including her actor dad and even her grandpa Damon Wayans Sr., whose video with Aniya has racked up 1.8 million likes. (She hilariously pretends to brush his bald head and give him imaginary hairstyles like a ponytail, set to the viral tune "My Hair, It Don't Move.")
Shareef O'Neal
Shareef O'Neal isn't just known for his basketball skills (he plays for the LSU Tigers) — he's also a popular TikTok star. The 21-year-old, whose father is basketball legend Shaquille O'Neal, boasts 1.4 million followers on the app. He posts everything from reaction videos and hoops action to funny footage with his uber-famous dad.
Sistine Stallone
Did you know one of Rocky's kids is TikTok famous? Sistine Stallone, the 22-year-old actress and daughter of Sylvester Stallone, has amassed 2.2 million followers. She shares entertaining scenes from her charmed life, as well as funny clips with her Hollywood heavyweight father.
Tilly Ramsay
Imagine having feared chef Gordon Ramsay as your father! Nineteen-year-old Matilda Ramsay, who goes by the nickname Tilly, has a seriously impressive 9.4 million followers on the app. And she often dishes up fun dancing videos with her foodie dad — along with clips of some hilarious pranks she pulls on him (only she could get away with that!).
Jaya Harper
Sixteen-year-old Jaya Harper's mother is critically acclaimed actress Laura Dern. Jaya has more than 43,000 followers on TikTok and she's the epitome of the effortless "cool girl." She posts gorgeous videos of her and her friends, her cat, her guitar playing, and, occasionally, her famous mom.
Mayan Lopez
The apple doesn't fall far from the tree when it comes to funnyman George Lopez and his daughter, Mayan Lopez. She is a 25-year-old comedian and actress who frequently posts videos with her dad (who also has his own TikTok). Mayan is also open about her relationship with George and doesn't shy away from cracking jokes at his expense to the delight of her 463,000 followers.
Romeo Beckham
The 18-year-old son of British soccer legend David Beckham and former Spice Girl Victoria Beckham has an amazing following of more than 415,000 people. Romeo Beckham mostly posts trending dances and sports videos. Sadly, his famous parents have not made an appearance on his page, but we can only hope it will be sooner rather than later. (We bet David has some killer dance moves!)
Deacon Phillippe
Deacon Phillippe is the son of Hollywood stars Reese Witherspoon and Ryan Phillippe. His page is a little different from the rest on this list in that he has no videos posted but instead several sound clips where he is listed as the artist. In addition to his own TikTok page, he's also made adorable appearances on Reese's TikTok, including footage of him teaching his 45-year-old mom Gen-Z mannerisms or dances.
Alabama Barker
Alabama Barker is the daughter of Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker and Shanna Moakler. Although her dad doesn't make any appearances on her page, he is supportive of her on Instagram. At 14, she already has an impressive 1.3 million followers on TikTok — and just imagine how quickly that number would skyrocket if any of the Kardashians made a cameo (Travis is currently dating Kourtney Kardashian).
