Ellie Zeiler recently had her first acting role in Brat TV’s “Crown Lake.” Although she’s always wanted to act and was excited for the opportunity, Zeiler said she had a lot of nerves about trying something so new. Those nerves were only heightened because her large social media following meant there would be plenty of people watching her acting debut. The TikTok star added that the pressure of people watching “scares [her] in general.”
Zeiler now has 10.6 million followers on TikTok, which is something she said she never imagined when she first started posting on the app. Because of her massive success, Zeiler has had the opportunity to start acting, represent brands, and connect with people across the world. Though she doesn’t take any of that for granted, “Every day, I’m so grateful that this is my life and that I get to do this,” she told The List. However, with the success and attention, Zeiler also feels added pressure put on everything she does. “I feel like even with posting on social media, I can never think of a mass group of people, or else I’ll get so nervous, and I won’t post,” Zeiler said.
