"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歲的“Granny”來自俄亥俄州哥倫布市，她喜歡得到粉絲的支持。她說，“不管我去哪里，進(jìn)哪家小店，總有人認(rèn)識我。”（盡管有時有點太受關(guān)注了；她要求我們不要用她的真名來保護(hù)她的隱私）。當(dāng)她的孫子羅斯·史密斯大學(xué)畢業(yè)回家發(fā)現(xiàn)她的shooting hoops游戲時，她第一次在Vine上以“Gangster Granny”的身份走紅。他很快制作了一段視頻并上傳到網(wǎng)上。他說，“這段視頻像病毒一樣傳播開來，接下來的事大家都知道了。九年后，我們?nèi)栽谧屖澜缥⑿Α！毕矂《私M是在抖音還叫做Musical.ly的時候開始入駐的。他們一起惡作劇，分享生活技巧，展示花式乒乓啤酒游戲，還邀請了查克·諾里斯等名人嘉賓。Granny說，她最喜歡拍的視頻是“令人興奮的”系列，比如在最近的一個抖音視頻里，她穿著泳衣，坐在裝滿麥片的浴缸里。史密斯說：“這太棒了，它打開了一扇新的互動之門，也漲了一批新粉。”

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歲的史蒂夫·奧斯汀、通過開玩笑和分享他嘗試烹飪、跳舞或魔術(shù)的視頻類吸引抖音用戶觀看。漁夫帽已經(jīng)成為他的招牌造型，奧斯汀說，他現(xiàn)在可能已經(jīng)收集了100多頂漁夫帽。他說，為互聯(lián)網(wǎng)制作視頻“讓我的大腦保持活躍。這給了我一個早上起床的理由。”奧斯汀估計他已經(jīng)發(fā)布了大約12年了，先是在Vine上，然后是YouTube上。但他在抖音上才成了明星。奧斯汀說，“我會做一個三明治或一碗麥片粥，那就是我的‘烹飪’。我猜人們認(rèn)為這很有趣，因為我開始得到粉絲。一夜之間，我擁有了上千名粉絲。”他的“與史蒂夫一起烹飪”系列視頻讓他在Rachel Ray Show、CNN和《今日》上亮相。“我簡直不敢相信。我有點應(yīng)接不暇了。”除了做飯，他還喜歡錄制一些傻傻的舞蹈視頻以及“史蒂夫的魔法星期六”，他在這個系列里試圖表演魔術(shù)，但通常會搞砸。他說，“我本質(zhì)上只是一個拙劣的演員，我對自己不太認(rèn)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."
