ThunThun Skittles

Background

A. Alana, professionally known as ThunThun Skittles, was born on November 26, 1999, and you’ve probably seen her before, even if you don’t picture it yet. She’s the face of many memes and gags that have been around the Internet for quite some time right now.

Her content creation journey began in 2013 on YouTube and Vine. She created her main channel in September, and as of today, her videos have gathered more than eight million views in total. She currently has over 340,000 subscribers who adore her content, which mainly revolves around her creating comedy skits and lip-syncing videos across platforms. Oftentimes, she also documents herself trying new things and reacting to viral content, like TikTok videos and K-pop gossip. She often uses body humor when she posts, along with self-deprecating jokes. One of her most popular YouTube videos is “Tried doing a makeup tutorial for the first time – FUNNY.” She also has a second channel called ThunThunIRL, created in 2017, but sadly, it has no uploads.

Alana gained a considerable amount of fame on the short-form video-sharing platform Vine before it was shut down three years after its launch. She also began posting on Instagram around that time, quickly gaining a strong following. Alana also began posting videos on TikTok when the platform started gaining traction here in the Americas. She amassed over 8.6 million followers there. However, for unknown reasons, the creator recently set her account to private. We can only hope she’ll return soon to share her humor with the rest of the world.
