TikTok star Charlie D'Amelio is trying to raise awareness and inspire her followers.
The Tik Tok Star appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where she opened up about teaming up with her sister, Dixie D'Amelio, for a good cause.
"We paired up with UNICEF for Internet Safety Day and talking about how cyberbullying really can affect people," Charli explained during Tuesday night's appearance. "I feel like it's really important to raise awareness about that because a lot of people don't like talking about the hate they get." she said.
She continued. "I'm still a 15-year-old teenager — girl, especially. It hurts for everyone, no matter who you are. Getting hundreds of thousands of hate comments per week is a lot to handle."
"You just have to be authentic. You can't fake a smile. You have to do what you actually enjoy," she advised further.
With that, she also shed light on cyber-bullying and how she has dealt with the issue.
"It's okay to not be okay. You just have to know these people aren't worth your time," she said.
