Asked for the umpteenth time why she’s famous for a new Hulu docuseries about her life, 16 year-old Charli D’Amelio rolls her eyes. She’s thought about this question a lot, but still doesn’t have a great answer for her outsizednotoriety. Maybe, she suggests, it was the shared boredom of COVID-19 quarantine, during which her 15 second dance videos took off like never before. Or maybe it was just “a vibe” people responded to. Whatever the reason, she insists, “I don’t consider myself to be famous.
Even with more than 100 million people subscribing to her channel on TikTok alone, Charli’s well aware that her particular kind of internet fame is conditional. No matter how many millions of people follow her, many more aren’t on TikTok at all, or else served a completely different set of content by the almighty algorithm.
Instead, “The D’Amelio Show” settles for a general peek behind the curtain that focuses on the basic frustrations of sudden fame. The biggest sources of conflict are the “haters” lurking in the comments of the D’Amelios’ social-media accounts, which haunt both Charli and, especially, her older sister Dixie.
Since it didn’t start taping until early 2021, “The D’Amelio Show” already missed out on some of the family’s most complex experiences to this point. Charli and Dixie’s burst in popularity and the family’s move from Connecticut to Los Angeles during the pandemic get only glancing mentions; Charli learning to credit the other dancers who create the dances she performs and rejecting a safer neutrality to speak out after the murder of George Floyd get nothing at all.
By the time “The D’Amelio Show” was greenlit for Hulu, the D’Amelio Show as a broader concept was already well underway. Whether through Charli’s TikTok, Dixie’s YouTube channel, each sister’s Instagrams, their joint podcast, or even their parents’ podcast, the D’Amelio family has long been finding ways to communicate their ideas, truths, hopes and passions.
