Among the winners of the UK and Ireland’s first TikTok awards are a woman who makes homemade pickles, a man who films strangely pleasurable videos about cleaning his pool, and a travel team searching for a 99p Mr. Whippy.
72 selected content creators, who together have over 101 million followers, attended an awards ceremony on Tuesday night honoring creators in 12 categories, such as fashion, travel, gastronomy, and education.
The west London event was exactly what you would expect from an awards ceremony for chronically online people. Throughout the ceremony, some authors were spotted updating their follower accounts, there were countless photo possibilities, and there were more ring lights than people.
