Andrew “King Bach” Bachelor first rose to fame on the social media app, Vine, and has continued to gain fans, even having over 66 million followers across Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter.

“I kinda give everyone the story about who King Bach is, you know? How I started, where I came up from, how I grew up, my parents, the hard times I went through —it’s kinda like a full, entertaining hour of a show of who I am,” King Bach told WTMJ. “We need a night off where we can just, like, be free, leave our problems at home, leave our problems at the door, all come together and laugh.”

Of course, one of the biggest challenges was moving on after Vine was no more. He has since adjusted and found a new love for TikTok.

“People still want to be entertained. They still want to scroll their phone and laugh and be able to forget about their problems, be able to escape for a little bit, so even though the game [has] changed, the players are still the same,” he said of the social media change.

King Bach Doesn't Worry About Followers

Even though he has 66 million followers over his social media platforms, King Bach says he doesn't pay attention to that and focuses on who those people really are.

“I don’t believe in the follower count, I believe in who the person is,” he told the outlet. “Are they a hard worker? How bad do they really want it?”

“You can blow up on social media anywhere. You can blow up in L.A., you can do it in Milwaukee, you can do it in Chicago, you can be anywhere,” Bachelor said of chasing his dreams of being an entertainer. “As long as you have the willpower and the determination to do it, you will do it.”

How Did King Bach Get His Start?

While King Bach has rose to fame in what seems like overnight, he did not have any help to get to where he is today.

"I started from scratch when I came out," he told Forbes, "And the reason that I started doing these videos was that, going to these auditions, I noticed that they kept giving these roles to people who already were somebody; like Marlon Wayans and Don Cheadle."

Adding, "I was like, 'These guys aren’t actually auditioning for these roles.' So I thought to myself, 'I need to make a following to break into this industry.' So I started making these YouTube videos, so I could make a reel. So I could show these directors and producers that I had talent. And in creating these reels and these videos, fans started to follow me.
