TikTok star Millie Ford warns other influencers they ‘can’t be making content at age 50’ – after

Millie Ford has carved out a career on social media.

But the TikTok star says that she can’t rely on the internet for a living once she hits middle age – and warned other influencers to branch out, too.

The 27-year-old, who is now pursuing an acting career, tells this week’s issue of Stellar Magazine that online fame is fleeting.

‘While I’m so grateful for the platform that I’ve been given, it’s just so volatile’ Millie told the publication.

‘We can’t all just be making content until we’re 50. It’s so fine if you are, but not all of us are going to be.

‘We don’t need to be put in a box making videos. I’m like, what else can I do? We don’t know the future of social media.’

She continued: ‘Honestly, if someone asks me what I do, I don’t know where to start. I like to call myself a creative person in general because beyond just the acting and the singing or whatever, I’m full of ideas. My mind is constantly daydreaming’.

Millie has turned her hand to acting as she made her Home And Away debut in February.

The internet star, from Sydney, landed a cameo role on the hit Channel 7 soap opera and made her big arrival on Summer Bay.

She starred as an influencer called Montana, which wasn’t a far cry away from her own rise to fame posting viral parody videos on TikTok.

Millie saw huge success with her uncanny imitations of everyday Aussie teachers, parents and shop assistants, and has racked up 1.5million followers on the platform.

Now, she has turned her hand to acting and landed a role in the hugely popular soap opera, after aptly featuring as a school librarian in Aussie TV series Bump.

During Millie’s cameo, her character Montana moans to Rose Delaney (Kirsty Marillier) about having to do her community service.

After her Home And Away debut, Millie gushed that series regulars Justin, Kirsty and Kyle Shilling, who plays Mali Hudson, were ‘amazing’ to work with.

‘I was just a sponge watching them work and everything went really quickly,’ she told 7news.

‘They also helped me to not feel self conscious, and I think that’s really important because it just shows up on the camera.

‘We were actually cracking up to the point where we almost couldn’t hold it in on camera.’

Millie also excitedly posted photographs and videos of her scenes to social media and gushed that the project was a ‘dream come true’.

The social media star has been passionate about acting since she was a child, when she was involved in school plays, and is now pursuing it as a career.

Millie has secured herself an acting agent and a creative rep and hopes to nab more comedy roles in the future.

The glamazon was previously working in social media and marketing before rising to viral fame, admitting she never considered that TikTok could turn into a career.

She told Daily Mail Australia in 2021: ‘I am so grateful that I’ve had a platform to share my creativity and make people laugh. The support from my audience has been insane.’
