Kory Little is a cheerleading star: whether he’s showing off his skills to his 650K+ followers on TikTok, or on the stages of America’s Got Talent with his cheer crew, The Cheer Athletics Wildcats, Little has wowed audiences nationwide.

Once he was in high school, Little began competing with the team, Cheetah Eyes on the Cheetah Prize, for the 2016-2021 term. And in 2018, he earned himself his first Grand World Championship title. Around this time, Little started posting on the app Musical.ly; now, rebranded as TikTok. With content mainly surrounding his different gymnastic tricks and cheerleading experience, many of his posts went viral, earning him a crowned account on the platform. As of September 2020, he has a combined total of 16.5 million likes on all of his videos. His top video, “Wig Check,” has over 17.3 million views to date. This makes him one of the most successful TikTok stars to ever come out of Texas, with a net worth in the millions at just nineteen years old.

Upon graduation, Little got accepted to Navarro College and now competes on the Navarro Cheer squad for the 2020-2021 season. But he also competed with the Wildcats on America’s Got Talent in 2020, where their audition impressed judges Eric Stonestreet, Sofia Vergara, Howie Mendel, and Simon Cowell: the only members in the audience due to COVID-19. On AGT’s YouTube page, their video got upwards of 1.4 million views. The team made it to the quarterfinals.
