“ Most of the time it’s fun! Sometimes you do want a little bit of privacy but it’s nice to know there’s a lot of people out there who care about you and like to watch what you’re putting out there. “ Q. It is an honor to interview you tell everyone who Sarah is. A. Thank you! It’s an honor to be featured in your magazine. Currently, I’m a social media influencer. I have a pretty big following on TikTok(600k) and I also do Instagram and YouTube. I kind of got big from a fake fight that I did with one of my friends (which my mom was really mad about!). Then I went on TikTok and had a few viral videos with my friends Dennis and Tyshon, and now I have a bit of a following. I live in California, between two places. Most of the time I live on a ranch near Yosemite with a lot of animals. We have cats and dogs and horses and even llamas, and I take care of them while I’m home with my family. The rest of the time I live in Los Angeles. I’m there a lot for events and filming. I’m in the GoatFamLA Squad with Gavin Magnus and many of my close friends, so it’s a lot of fun when we film! I really enjoy it and I’m missing my friends so much right now (I’m writing this while still on quarantine).
Q. Tell us about your Fashion and Style? A. I really like the trends that are going on right now with fashion. I think they’re super cute. I really like comfy clothes like sweatpants and tank tops. I like how people are wearing more comfortable clothes now instead of having to get all dressed up. Other than that, my clothes are just casual I guess and a little funky and fun. For events I’ll go outside the box with my outfits, but for filming I’ll just wear a casual outfit. Q. What is your favorite store to shop at? A. I really like Urban outfitters and Brandy Melville. They both have 10

SA R A H L ITTL E a lot of great tops and I love Brandy t-shirts! I also like Justice because it has really great jeans for me. Urban Outfitter’s pants don’t really fit me though. I like to go into the stores and shop with my friends. I can try on clothes and get my friends opinions about what looks cute. We get some matching things sometimes, because
matching outfits are always really cute and fun. Q. How did you become a big success on YouTube and TikTok? A. I started YouTube with a parody of a Bhad Bhabie song, where I called
Q. What are some of your other hobbies?
myself Bhader Bhabie. I was upset she canceled a concert in our area, so I used her song “Hi Bich” and rewrote it and recreated her video. I also had a video on YouTube of me doing a Bratz makeup tutorial with my friend that got a lot of views and was super fun. On TikTok it first started with the Martha Dumptruck Heather’s sound. I did a video with two of my friends, Tyshon Lawrence and Dennis Wot, on Dennis’s channel. It was a viral trend and we got 25 million views, maybe even more. I kept making TikToks with Dennis and Tyshon and made a few more YouTube videos that got around 100,000 views. My friends and I would just follow the trends but put a twist on them and that just helped me grow. Q. What is one of the best challenges you did on YouTube or TikTok? A. I really like making my own POV (point of view) videos because it makes me feel creative and think out of the box. For those I’m not doing someone else’s idea, I’m coming up with my own. I like to make people laugh a lot, so I’ll have my family watch them to see if they laugh first before I post them. One that a lot of people liked was where I pretended my arm was broken. The video was a POV from a girl pretending her arm was broken at her school to get attention. I really liked doing it because I felt super creative and motivated. When I feel really motivated about an idea or a video, I’ll just grasp it and hold onto it. So yeah, that one was really one of my favorites.
A. I like gymnastics even though I’m not very good at it. I do gymnastics in my room because I have a wall that I can practice handstands on. Trying out different kinds of makeup is super fun. I like to paint and climb trees around my house. I don’t know if that’s a hobby. And I like to dress up my dog and groom my dog. My dog’s name is Tanner and I’ll clip his hair and wash him and fluff him up and then put him in a sweatshirt. Q. What is your favorite movie or T.V. show? A. My favorite TV show, BY FAR, is Vampire Diaries. I don’t really watch movies I only watch Vampire Diaries. I’ve seen all the episodes more than once. Q. How do you like sharing your journey in life with everyone in the world? A. Ha ha. Most of the time it’s fun! Sometimes you do want a little bit of privacy but it’s nice to know there’s a lot of people out there who care about you and like to watch what you’re putting out there. I’ve met a
lot of really cool people who are super sweet, and I know will always be there for me. I especially like my squad, including two of my closest friends Gavin Magnus and Corinne Joy. And some of my other close friends in social media are Dennis, Tyshon, and Joey (joewoahy). Those are people who I know are always going to be there for me. And I’m just really grateful for that. Q. How did you become doing Vlog? A. To be honest, I didn’t really know what was going on. I was best friends with a girl who did social media, and I was in her videos. I barely knew what a vlog was before that. I started to grow after that and then just wanted to keep up with the people that were following me already. But then I kept growing so I just started going with it and now I am where I am. Q. What are some things you are working on and where can everyone follow you? A. I have a webisode series called Sisters with Dennis and Tyshon (it’s on Tyshon Lawrence’s YouTube channel), and we’re having so much fun with it. Sisters started with one of Tyshon’s viral videos on TikTok where I pretended, I was being bullied and I called my sisters over to protect me. The video was super popular and funny, so we made a 10-minute video with the characters and it also did well. We just had such a great time making it and people kept asking for another one, so we made a second one after that. In the second video, we got to bring another one of my friends, Joey, in and he is just so funny so that was great. The series has millions of views and great feedback, so we’re now trying to make it into a feature film. I play the youngest sister who doesn’t listen to her sisters. Ha-ha! Sister T is always eating, and Sister D is the oldest sister and kind of strict. Sister Tyshon and I like to mess with Sister D, but he always takes it really seriously. We’re working on the next Sisters video now. You can follow me on Instagram and TikTok (@sarahdorothylittle). You can also checkout out my YouTube videos at youtube.com/c/sarahdorothylittle!
