TikTok is huge all the over the world at the moment, and with TikTok-ers popping up all over the county, Laois is no exception.
For those who don’t know, TikTok is a video-sharing social networking service owned by ByteDance, a Beijing-based company founded in 2012 by Zhang Yiming.
We put a shout-out for nominations over on our Instagram account and were inundated with suggestions of which Laois people make the best TikToks.
It was tough, but our top secret judging panel has narrowed it down to 25 of the best.
We have some very funny teenagers, teachers, farmers, footballers, and even RTÉ presenters.
Check out our Top 20 Laois TikTokers in 2021 below:
