TikTok sensation Katie Pego shot to fame after sharing short dance and lip-synch videos on the platform, frequently using the split screen feature. The social media star has amassed over 1.1 million followers and racked up more than 4 million ‘likes’, and was also a co-founder of the TikTok content collective Top Talent House. With more than 300,000 followers on Instagram she has been approached by numerous brands for advertising and collaborations, and has advertised accessories and clothing for BOUTINE Los Angeles, zoela.co and Princesspolly Boutique.
Born to Portuguese parents in Long Island, New York, Pego first posted a video on TikTok on April 27th 2019. The video called “ImAgInE IF evEryOnE WhO sAW ThIs lIkED it #foryoupage”, set to the tune of “Chinese New Year – Sales” went viral and quickly garnered over a million views, and she then followed with another popular clip featuring her parents. Her popularity soared even further after she co-founded Los Angeles based TikTok content collective Top Talent House in October 2020 with fellow TikTok stars Eva Cudmore, Anna Shumate and Rachel Brockman. Pego later joined another LA based content house named ‘Not A Content House’.
With so many followers, Pego has already become an instantly recognisable face to her generation but her future looks just as bright away from social media. A talented young sportsperson, Pego is an excellent lacrosse player who has committed to play her sport at Cortland college.
