Bella Poarch was born on February 8, 1997, raised by her grandmother in the slums until the age of three and was then adopted. 

Her adoptive father is an American who had served in the US military and her adoptive mother is Filipina, but her life after adoption was not rosy, but she and her adopted brother were heavily abused all throughout her childhood, up until her enrollment in the military. Her family (except her two older sisters who still reside in the Philippines) moved to San Francisco to live with her aunt for a couple of months, before the family moved to Texas when she was 13 due to her father’s need for bypass surgery.

She says that the abuse decreased, but she still faced some mental abuse from her father at home.

In January 2020, Poarch created her TikTok account. She started actively posting on TikTok based on gaming and cosplay content in April 2020. She gained notability in August 2020, when her lip sync videos went viral, most notably her video where she is lip-syncing to “Sophie Aspin Send” by Millie B. The zoomed-in video of her lip-syncing to that tune and rhythmically bouncing went viral and became TikTok’s most liked video of all time.

She also signed a recording contract with Warner Records and released her debut single “Build a Bitch” which achieved certain recognition.

As of February 1, 2023, Bella Poarch’s Tik Tok account has more than 92.8 million followers, making it the fourth most followed person on the platform, behind Charli D’Amelio, Khaby Lame and Addison Rae. She also holds the record as the owner of the video with the most likes on TikTok, with more than 50 million likes.
