Cindy Kimberly

In 2015, Cindy Kimberly, also known as wolfiecindy, was only a teenager when she rose to fame practically overnight. It started with a post by Justin Bieber, a pop sensation. On his Instagram account, he posted a picture of Kimberly with the caption, “Omg who is this!!!”

He was complimenting her beauty, so his followers searched for her endlessly. They finally came across her account, which seemed to gain a massive following over the span of a few hours. At this time, Kimberly was shocked and overjoyed with all of the kindness she was receiving.

She was attending school while working as a part-time babysitter in Costa Blanca, Spain. Today, she has over four million followers on Instagram and is verified on both Instagram and Twitter.

Because of Justin Bieber, Kimberly gets to do what she loves, which is modeling. She has posed for several photo shoots for large magazine companies and signed contracts with modeling and talent agencies. She now has fans that admire her and gets to travel the world, which is something she has wanted to do for the longest time.

Danielle Bregoli

Danielle Bregoli became popular after an appearance on Dr. Phil, hosted by a television personality and psychologist. Barbara Ann, Bregoli’s mother, had brought her daughter onto the show, claiming that she was an out-of-control teenager. She was only thirteen when she started engaging in criminal activities, such as stealing cars and money.

Bregoli became famous because of the phrase she used to address the audience, “Cash me ousside, how bow dah?” This translates to “Catch me outside, how about that?” to show that she would fight, or take it outside. After these six words, the video became viral, and she did as well.

With a following of over twelve million on Instagram, she has used her popularity to her benefit. She has sold merchandise, creating a business and getting money off of it. People even believed she would become a millionaire in a year, even though she is very young.

Today, she has made herself a rapper, featuring in one of Kodak Black’s songs, “Everything 1K”. Her net worth is currently about $300,000, charging tens of thousands of dollars for appearances and shows with the stage name Bhad Bhabie. Bregoli is now known as an artist on the rise, despite her age. Her success is directly from the show and the phrase that was turned into a meme.

Nick Jonas

At the age of just six, Nick Jonas had already been discovered by a talent manager. His mother had worked at a barber shop, where he followed her to most days. There, he helped around and sang tunes. A customer was amazed by his ability, so she referred Jonas to a talent agent. Although he was discovered first, his brothers Joe and Kevin Jonas formed a band with him.

Not long after, he was featured in major Broadway shows, such as Beauty and the Beast. He became a Broadway star by performing as replacements for star actors. He was discovered and cast into television shows and movies. The movie series that really boosted his career was Camp Rock, a Disney original.

He gained a large following from his success on Disney Channel, so he used it. Today, he has released several hit singles. For instance, “Chains” and “Jealous” were on the Billboard Top 100 charts. Jonas has also released two recent albums, called Nick Jonas and Last Year was Complicated.

He has also been seen in many popular films, still pursuing a career as an actor along with singer and songwriter. Although the Jonas Brothers have disbanded, they are still very successful in the music industry as individuals.
