"Granny", 94, of Columbus, Ohio, loves the support from fans. "No matter where I go, into what little store, someone knows me," she says. (Although sometimes its a little too much attention; she asked that we not use her real name to protect her privacy). She first went viral as "Gangster Granny" on Vine, when her grandson Ross Smith came home from college to find her shooting hoops. He quickly made a video and posted it online. "It kind of went viral, and the rest is history. Nine years later we're still making the world smile," he says. The comedic duo started using TikTok when it was still called Musical.ly. They pull pranks together, share life hacks, demonstrate beer pong trick shots, and have featured celebrity guests, including Chuck Norris. Granny says her favorite videos to make are "the exciting ones," such as a recent TikTok where she donned a swimsuit and sat in a bathtub full of cereal. Smith says, "It's been great, it's opened up a new door to interact and make a bunch of new fans."
94岁的“Granny”来自俄亥俄州哥伦布市,她喜欢得到粉丝的支持。她说,“不管我去哪里,进哪家小店,总有人认识我。”(尽管有时有点太受关注了;她要求我们不要用她的真名来保护她的隐私)。当她的孙子罗斯·史密斯大学毕业回家发现她的shooting hoops游戏时,她第一次在Vine上以“Gangster Granny”的身份走红。他很快制作了一段视频并上传到网上。他说,“这段视频像病毒一样传播开来,接下来的事大家都知道了。九年后,我们仍在让世界微笑。”喜剧二人组是在抖音还叫做Musical.ly的时候开始入驻的。他们一起恶作剧,分享生活技巧,展示花式乒乓啤酒游戏,还邀请了查克·诺里斯等名人嘉宾。Granny说,她最喜欢拍的视频是“令人兴奋的”系列,比如在最近的一个抖音视频里,她穿着泳衣,坐在装满麦片的浴缸里。史密斯说:“这太棒了,它打开了一扇新的互动之门,也涨了一批新粉。”

Fort Worth's Steve Austin, 82, draws TikTok viewers by joking around and sharing his attempts to cook, dance, or do magic tricks. Bucket hats have become his signature look and Austin says he has now probably collected over 100. Making videos for the internet, he says "keeps my mind active. It gives me a reason to get up in the morning." Austin estimates he has been posting for about 12 years, first on Vine and then YouTube. But it was TikTok where he became a star. "I would make a sandwich or a bowl of cereal and that was me 'cooking.' I guess people thought it was funny, because I started getting followers. Overnight I was getting thousands of people following me," Austin says. His "Cooking with Steve" video series landed him appearances on the Rachel Ray Show, CNN, and Today. "I couldn't believe it. It's been a bit overwhelming." In addition to cooking, he likes doing silly dancing videos and "Magic Saturdays with Steve," where he tries to do a magic trick but usually messes up. "I'm just a ham at heart," he says. "I don't take myself too seriously."
沃思堡82岁的史蒂夫·奥斯汀、通过开玩笑和分享他尝试烹饪、跳舞或魔术的视频类吸引抖音用户观看。渔夫帽已经成为他的招牌造型,奥斯汀说,他现在可能已经收集了100多顶渔夫帽。他说,为互联网制作视频“让我的大脑保持活跃。这给了我一个早上起床的理由。”奥斯汀估计他已经发布了大约12年了,先是在Vine上,然后是YouTube上。但他在抖音上才成了明星。奥斯汀说,“我会做一个三明治或一碗麦片粥,那就是我的‘烹饪’。我猜人们认为这很有趣,因为我开始得到粉丝。一夜之间,我拥有了上千名粉丝。”他的“与史蒂夫一起烹饪”系列视频让他在Rachel Ray Show、CNN和《今日》上亮相。“我简直不敢相信。我有点应接不暇了。”除了做饭,他还喜欢录制一些傻傻的舞蹈视频以及“史蒂夫的魔法星期六”,他在这个系列里试图表演魔术,但通常会搞砸。他说,“我本质上只是一个拙劣的演员,我对自己不太认真。”

Charles Mallet of Los Angeles, 85, has been making videos with his granddaughter Basia since March 2019."I was sitting in the ER waiting room with my granddaughter after my wife had a heart attack. My granddaughter wanted to always remember me, so she started to document our time together," he says. Their warmhearted videos range from Mallet doing everyday things to dancing and otherwise being silly with his family. Mallet says he loves TikTok because it gives him the opportunity to make memories with his granddaughter, and he loves eating the food that they make together in their videos. "It is great to be able to be able to fill kids with joy and wholesome videos," Mallet says. "If I can be a grandpa to those who do not have one, or a bonus grandpa, I am honored and blessed."
