Meet Anthony Success—the 22-Year-Old TikTok star Who’s All Grown Up

Anthony Success, AKA Osu Eluemunor Success – if you’re one of the 320,000 people who follow her on TikTok, then you already know she’s sparkly. She’s not wearing any sequins or anything, and yeah, there’s a hint of shimmer framing her stop-you-in-your-tracks baby-doll eyes, but that’s not it either. There’s something about her naturally caffeinated energy – not to mention, the way she goes full-on one of Nigeria’s top TikTokers when the photograph lens flashes in a way that only a girl who’s taken more selfies than a phone can store could pull off – that makes even the bright, pretty, millennial pink background on set look dull in comparison.

Wait, you don’t know who Anthony Success is? Do you have internet? She’s got over 10,000 Instagram followers and 300,000 TikTok followers. Moving forward, she’s set to be a starring role in the best Nigeria TikTok most followed creators. She’s on the rise, known for her original transitions and lifestyle hacks. “Dreaming Out Loud” has just hit the media world.

Anthony’s fandom stems from Musicaly, an app now known as TikTok, on which users make short lip-sync videos – think a cross between karaoke and singing to yourself in the mirror, all through a selfie camera lens – which she joined in spring 2021. Her videos, in which she does transitions, lip-syncing, but in a cute-silly way, making faces at the camera and doing lots of pointing, soon racked up a significant fan following. In short, it’s a lot.

But IRL, she’s chill – really. In fact, she seems somehow wholly unaffected by the Gen Z-ified culture. And yeah, OK, I know – yes, she’s a 22-year-old with a memoir. But consider this less a memoir filled with juicy, salacious stories, and more a personal diary-meets-self-help book you’d wish you had as a teen. If there was an opposite of a Mean Girls’ Burn Book, it’d be this. Filled with personal anecdotes and photos that fans will gush over, and organized by colors that reflect her personality.
