Luck, they say, is when opportunity meets preparation. So when I reflect on Sophia Diamond’s continued rise to stardom, I can’t help but marvel at how ‘lucky’ she has been. In a cutthroat world where it is becoming increasingly difficult to find oneself, Sophia Diamond has managed to carve a niche for herself.
Social media has made the world seem smaller, with everything becoming more accessible (I mean, I can now tweet at the President of the United States and tell him his hair looks like a bird’s nest!). Beautiful times we live in.
Celebrities like Justin Bieber, the Kardashian clan, Shawn Mendes and Halsey all started out on the internet and have now gone on to enjoy varying degrees of success. But social media isn’t without its ills though. The anonymity of the internet has proven to be an issue, though that’s the talk for another day.
With the growing list of individuals that have become a success through social media, one can affirm Sophia Diamond is in good company.
