Charli & Dixie’s Dad Marc D'Amelio Is Trying to Buy TikTok

As if being the father of the two biggest TikTok stars – Charli D’Amelio and Dixie D’Amelio – wasn’t enough, Marc D’Amelio is now looking forward to buying the online platform.

On Saturday, March 18, 2023, Marc took to his Twitter handle to express that he was putting together a team of investors so that they could buy TikTok. He wrote, “I am putting together a group of investors to pursue the purchase of TikTok.”

As of this writing, his tweet has been viewed by nearly 63,000 Twitter users and has received an overwhelming response. Similarly, when TeaTok Talk posted a screenshot of Marc’s tweet on Instagram, netizens expressed their opinions in the comment section.

For instance, one user questioned Marc’s financial condition and wrote, “TikTok is worth billions of dollars there is no way he can find people to buy this like he is not that rich and even if he finds other rich friends.”

“I don’t think he can purchase TikTok gotta be way more famous than regular TikToker it has to be celebrity or billionaire,” another commented.

Similarly, one Instagram user mocked how today’s teenagers are hooked to TikTok and wrote, “Yall realize if we don’t have tiktok, we can finally go back to 2000 and be kids that watch Disney and nickelodeon.”

Furthermore, a netizen mentioned that they would rather have Marc buy and invest in TikTok than see the platform banned permanently in the United States. “Plus, it wouldn’t just be him buying it; it’d be a group of investors…y’all being too dramatic,” they added.

With that being said, if Marc ends up being the co-owner of TikTok, then the D’Amelio family will indeed rule the app. Currently, Charli is TikTok’s second most-followed creator, with over 150.3 million followers, and Dixie has garnered more than 57.3 million followers.

Why is Marc D’Amelio looking to buy TikTok?

The news of Marc forming a group of investors to buy TikTok comes days after it was reported that federal officers are pressing TikTok’s Chinese owners to sell their stake. And if they fail to do so, the social media platform will face a ban in the US.

These actions currently taken by the Biden administration were also previously taken by the Trump administration. Likewise, CNN reported that this notice came from the multi-agency Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS) after negotiations between the two parties: the US Government and TikTok.

Additionally, CNN mentioned that the ultimatum given to TikTok by the US government is a result of the pressure given from Washington as lawmakers again talk about the national security concerns raised by the social media platform.

As for whether or not TikTok has responded to CFIUS’ ultimatum, TikTok’s spokesperson Maureen Shanahan told CNN, “If protecting national security is the objective, divestment doesn’t solve the problem.”

“A change in ownership would not impose any new restrictions on data flows or access. The best way to address concerns about national security is with the transparent, US-based protection of US user data and systems, with robust third-party monitoring, vetting, and verification, which we are already implementing.”

Likewise, when TikTok’s CEO Shou Zi Chew was at a Harvard Business Review conference in early March 2023, he stated, “The Chinese government has actually never asked us for US user data, and we’ve said this on the record, that even if we were asked for that, we will not provide that.”

Chew also stressed that all the data of TikTok users from the United States is stored in the Oracle Cloud infrastructure by default, and access to those data is entirely controlled by US personnel.

Furthermore, TikTok’s CEO addressed the lawmaker’s concerns about the Chinese government using the platform to spread propaganda among American audiences. Chew mentioned that it was bad for business, and 60% of TikTok’s owners were global investors.

Aisha Mian Tells All about Her Negative Experience with Chris Brown

A fan said, “y’all calling her a nobody but yet he WAS IN HER DMs.”

Aisha Mian Tells All about Her Negative Experience with Chris Brown

Aisha Mian opened up about her negative experience with the infamous musician Chris Brown in an open interview with Troy Osterberg on September 27, 2023.

She cautiously made a reference to Brown’s continuous attempts to interact with her over the past two years when Osterberg questioned about the most famous person in her DMs.

Osterberg asked, “Who’s the most famous person your DM’s right now,” and Mian refused to say the person’s name on-camera but hinted the person was Brown.

She claimed that the R&B singer had gotten in touch with her again around two weeks ago, which piqued her interest in what would come up during their talk.

Mian chose to engage in the conversation despite his long-standing interest in her. Brown announced they should get together and claimed he was finally in the city. 

Uncertain of his motivations, she gave a neutral response, proposing they meet up for a “chill vibe,” but she clarified that he shouldn’t expect anything more.

Brown’s response to her openness was far from mature; he implied that it was strange of her to bring up such boundaries and even uttered bad words toward her. 

Unimpressed, Main responded that she merely expected him to behave adultably. Brown then attempted to redirect the conversation away from the awkward incident by asking about her favorite movie. 

The singer seemed to be trying to change the subject, but Main opted not to reply. She added that he had messaged her once more, continuing to express interest in a movie night, but she decided to end the conversation there. 

Fans’ reaction to Aisha Mian’s situation

As news of Mian’s situation spread quickly online, admirers from all around the world commented with their viewpoints. Tea pages widely shared the video on social media networks, causing it to spread swiftly.

One fan shared their viewpoint, saying, “even if its just entertaining, its so weird, it being chris brown out of all ppl. i wouldve blocked that dude in a milisecond.”

Another said, “So you’re all blaming her for him being dramatic. It’s not her fault men can’t take no and move on respectfully.” 

The third comment read, “She literally just wanted to know what he would say, she knew she wasn’t interested. y’all calling her a nobody but yet he WAS IN HER DMs.”

Who is Aisha Mian? A look at her

Mian is a well-known social media influencer who is most known for being one-half of the wildly successful twin TikTok duet known as the MianTwins on TikTok. 

Main and her twin sister Azra, who were both born on February 26, 2001, started their journey to fame at a young age.

They made their first move by starting the MianTwins YouTube channel in January 2014, where they share their fashion knowledge, provide outfit suggestions, and discuss beauty regimens. 

The MianTwins attended the Fashion Institute of Technology in New York City, but they ultimately decided to leave after only one year. 

Their decision was motivated by a need to fully dedicate themselves to their developing social media professions.

Jasmine Goode And Girlfriend Melissa Marie Gets Matching Tattoos

Fans first got to know Jasmine Goode on Season 21 of The Bachelor and Season 4 of Bachelor in Paradise

Goode’s quest for love on the show didn’t quite work out as she had potentially planned, but her love life unexpectedly turned off-screen.

It was in the real world that the reality TV star found the love she had been searching for all along with her girlfriend, Melissa Marie.

Goode and Marie have been together for the past two years, and the pair often share glimpses into their relationship via Instagram.

Recently, the 36-year-old television actress took their commitment to a whole new level by getting matching tattoos with her girlfriend, Marie. 

A few weeks back, she teased fans with a peek of Marie getting a tattoo on her Instagram Story. Another Instagram Story showed the pair showing off their new tattoo while they hid the design. 

However, last week, Goode finally revealed their new tattoo, showing a branch with three leaves tattooed in the same spot on their forearms, writing, “Enjoying the little things in life.”

Jasmine Goode and Melissa Marie have been dating for 2 years

Goode and Marie have been in a relationship for two years, since 2021. Their love story began after Goode’s appearance on Nick Viall’s season of The Bachelor, where she didn’t find love but ultimately found it off-screen with her girlfriend Marie. 

While the details of how they first crossed paths remain unknown to the world, their love has been on full display as they’ve walked several red carpets together as a couple. 

For instance, on December 9, 2021, they walked the red carpet together at Katie Welch and Jordan Kuker’s 8th Annual Winter Wonderland Toys for Tots Charity Event. 

A close look at Jasmine Goode’s girlfriend Melissa Marie

Goode’s girlfriend, Marie, is a private person who prefers to stay away from the glitz and glamour of the entertainment industry. 

Unlike Goode, Marie doesn’t seem to be associated with reality TV shows or fame, as indicated by her low-profile presence on Instagram. 

Instead, she is an entrepreneur who has a background in athletics, having been an athlete during her college years. 

More on Jasmine Goode

Although some people would consider Goode’s inclusion in the Vanderpump Rules cast to be a coincidence, she has a deeper connection to the show. 

It may not be obvious, but her incorporation into the show is more natural than it seems because she presently works at SUR and has true friendships with some of the cast members. 

The TV star hasn’t just appeared on-screen, but she has also contributed behind the scenes. She received two production credits in 2018—one for the TV show This Is LA and the other for the movie Socio.

Moreover, Goode was a pro dancer. She danced for the New York Jets and the Golden State Warriors. Additionally, she was also a cheerleader.

She was a cheerleader in high school and eventually became the team’s captain. She was even a member of the infamous Dallas Cowboys cheerleading team.

Kiana Madeira and Lovell Adams-Gray, who have been engaged for three years, finally said “I do” on September 2023 in Toronto in front of 200 guests.

The actors, who had been together since 2017, finally took their relationship to the next level and finally tied the knot after being together for six years.

Kiana Madeira and Lovell Adams-Gray’s wedding was straight out of a fairytale

Madeira and her husband Adams-Gray exchanged their wedding vows on September 10, 2023, at Casa Loma in Toronto.

The pair shared the news via Instagram, writing, “It was everything that we prayed for, and more. We are officially Mr. & Mrs. Adams-Gray,” alongside several wedding pictures.

The actors who got engaged in January 2020 were surrounded by 200 guests at the castle-style mansion, Casa Loma, the perfect fit for their “ethereal royalty” wedding theme.

The Fear Street actress said, “It was a dream come true. A fairytale,” while her actor husband noted, “It was everything we prayed for, and more” to the People magazine. 

Madeira wore an off-the-shoulder lace and tulle gown embellished with flowers and butterflies by Luca Sposa that she got from Liza Ray. With a custom-made matching Tania Maras veil, she completed the bridal look.

“This dress was the number one on my list from the very beginning when I saw it online and trying it on at Liza Ray in N.Y.C. just solidified my love for it,” she said to the outlet.

She flaunted a custom Tania Maras pearl choker and earrings by Karáhkwa Jewelry, an indigenous Canadian brand, and pearl-covered shoes by Charlotte Mills.

The Trinkets actress walked down the aisle to Justin Timberlake’s song ‘Pair of Wings’ played by the Soenen Sisters. 

On the other hand, Adams-Gray wore a custom-made white three-piece suit from Alan David Custom Suits N.Y.C. and dress shoes by Luca Del Forte.

Pastor Samuel Kenga officiated the pair’s wedding, and they signed the registers in front of their close family and friends.

For the reception, the newlyweds changed their outfits as the actress swapped her gown for a short halter dress and her husband changed to a purple and a white suit.

The guests were served a four-course dinner, which consisted of salad, ravioli, 72-hour braised short rib, and dessert.

The newlywed couple are currently busy honeymooning in Portugal before they return to their busy life. The actress shared lovely pictures of their getaway on September 24, 2023, writing, “Our first travel experience as husband and wife.”

Kiana Madeira and Lovell Adams-Gray have been together since 2017

Madeira and Adams-Gray first met during an NBA All-Star weekend in 2016, and after a year, he finally asked Madeira to be his girlfriend in 2017.

After dating for several years, the pair got engaged in January 2020. However, it wasn’t until February 2020 that the After Everything actress announced the engagement news via Instagram.

Showing off her engagement ring, she wrote, “Your words are my serenity and this love inside of me is bursting at it’s seams.”

In 2020, Madeira moved to New York City to be with Adams-Gray while he was filming Power Book II: Ghost. He took advantage of the opportunity to take their relationship further with a romantic proposal.

When the actress got to Adams-Gray’s apartment, she discovered a large cardboard box in the living room and stargazer lilies leading to it.

She opened the box and discovered Adams-Gray lurking inside, down on one knee, with a stunning ring in his hand. He proposed, and she said “yes” right away.
