TikTok is taking over Tokyo
With no spectators at Tokyo 2020 due to the looming threat of Covid, our look behind the Olympic curtain has come from a new addition to the social media stratosphere. As of February 2021, it is believed that TikTok has over 1.1billion users, a small portion of which also happen to be competing in Tokyo right now.
Many athletes are using the app to scratch their thirsty itch, others are offering an interesting look behind the scenes, and some are having a jolly good time imitating the latest trends.
