Reporting from the TikTok awards
I spend more time on TikTok than I’d like to admit. So much
so, that occasionally I ask myself if I can remember the last five posts I’ve
seen on the app.
Truthfully, a lot of the time the answer is no – even if I
am mid scroll.
But increasingly, I find the best of TikTok culture
infiltrating my day.
It might be humming a viral song snippet from the app, as I
am whilst writing this. Or thinking about the TikTok recipe I plan to make over
the weekend, which I hope to enjoy whilst browsing budget-friendly travel
websites I’ve seen creators recommend.
It is this lasting impact that the UK and Ireland’s TikTok
content has had on us which will be celebrated tonight, at London’s second ever
annual TikTok Awards UK and Ireland.
I and our culture reporter Yasmin Rufo are here to bring you
the winners live from the venue.
We’ll also be speaking to those creators who have made our
bookshelves sag with recommendations, filled our bellies with homecooked meals,
and made us roar with laughter even on the most mundane of days.
Stay with us to hear more from a star-studded line up of
internet icons.
