British social media star Madeline Argy's confessional storytelling videos have attracted 7.5 million followers on TikTok, KZfaq and Instagram. Now, she's expanding her reach through a podcast called "Pretty Lonesome," which she launched with 30 Under 30 alum Alex Cooper's The Unwell Network in October 2023. Argy has partnered with digital brands like Google, Spotify and Netflix, as well as fashion and beauty companies like Coach, Rabanne and Kosas, which Forbes estimates resulted in $1 million in earnings last year. Though she's built a career on creating content, her biggest piece of advice to aspiring creators is to not stress too much about the content they're putting out. "Just get some funny friends and just exist, keep existing," she says. "There was a period of time where I was so stressed about putting out content that I kind of stopped going out and experiencing things." But it's life experiences and off-the-cuff thoughts that ultimately perform the best on her platforms, she adds. "[Ideas] come to me when I'm ready to receive them."

It's her voice and charisma.. she's mastered them both and it's out her on top with her audience... it's interesting to listen to her business side actually...🤔

I wish Madeline would interview I don't know...activists, academics, artists or musicians and people she looks up to and use her platform to get airtime for people who are smarter or more socially aware. Because she is special, relatable, charming and attractive but kinda vacuos

Hosts a podcast, but is struggling to answer interview questions? Like… come on

@BethVonBlack Ай бұрын

Have you heard her podcast? It's not a 'podcast' but 30 minutes of verbal diarrhoea. I don't mean that in a mean way, but she just waffles to the camera like you would in a vlog - she said it herself, the only thing that she thinks makes it a podcast is that she's holding a mic! lol.

People like her make a mockery of real talent. And for Forbes to endorse it is… a joke.

Guess Madeline Argy proves you don't need talent to be famous, just a phone and a strategically placed avocado. Meanwhile, real talent waits in the wings.
