Actress and influencer Piper Rockelle, 17, became an internet sensation at the age of 8 thanks to her YouTube channel and other social media accounts. She danced and acted as a child, participating in both scripted and unscripted events before she found her footing creating short-form content with the assistance of her mother and her mother's partner, Hunter Hill. As she kept up her posting, Piper accumulated millions of followers and a substantial amount of money, apparently reaching over half a million dollars a month at one time, from brand deals and other sources of income.?
According to Tudum, Piper Rockelle began collaborating in 2017 with a group of tween "friends" known as The Squad. Together, they created content and cross-promoted each other¡¯s social media accounts, building a shared online presence. Over time, The Squad featured popular kidfluencers like Sophie Fergi, Gavin Magnus, Sawyer Sharbino, Hayden Haas, Corinne Joy, Jentzen Ramirez, Claire RockSmith, and Symonne Harrison, although the lineup frequently changed.
To ramp up content production, some Squad members even moved in with Piper and her mother, Tiffany Smith. However, behind the scenes, concerns began to grow. Many parents gradually distanced their children from the group, citing Tiffany¡¯s questionable behavior and manipulative tactics.
The upcoming docuseries will expose the darker realities of kidfluencing and what can go wrong when children are pushed into the limelight.
