A rising social media star could be the next Justin Bieber, and it’s all thanks to lip-synching app Musical.ly. Jacob Sartorius claims to have accumulated over 8.5 million (mostly teen) fans on the rapidly growing platform with his lip-syncing abilities and boyish charm. Though teens are “totally divided” on the singer’s appeal, that hasn’t stopped Sartorius, who has his own online merch store, and recently made an appearance on the main stage of VidCon after his meet-and-greet booth was mobbed by teen fans.
