In the spotlight of the social media world, Dilara and Anna are no strangers. With millions of followers on TikTok and successful Twitch streams, they have built a loyal fanbase. However, fame also has its downsides, as Anna recently revealed in an interview.
Who is Dilara? Since 2019 Dilara has been captivating the social media world, especially on TikTok, with her unique videos. With 6.9 million followers, she has become a true influencer. Her clips include dance videos, fan questions, and current TikTok trends.
In August 2023, she also started on Twitch and immediately achieved impressive success with over 5,000 viewers in her first stream. She often plays games together with her streamer colleague “Stegi” and uploads clips of that to TikTok.
Her green hair strands and constant smile have become her trademarks.
Who is Anna? Often seen alongside Dilara is her friend Anna, who, with her fiery red hair, is another social media star. Together, they frequently refer to themselves as “Mario and Luigi”.
Anna, who herself has 1.7 million TikTok followers, not only posts dance videos but also comedy videos, vlogs, and TikTok trends.
She is also active on Twitch, but has been since May 2021. She averages around 500 viewers (via Twitchtracker).

What did Anna say in the interview? Recently, Anna opened up in an interview about her thoughts. She emphasized that she wholeheartedly wishes Dilara the hype and every single viewer.
Anna herself says she also benefits from this shared success. For instance, she had the opportunity to stream with Stegi and meet viewers from Dilara’s community.
Nevertheless, there is not only positive news to report.
“I feel like her manager”
What are the downsides of this friendship? Anna spoke openly about the challenges she is currently facing. She is frustrated when people in her chat refer to her as a “sidekick”. Also, when viewers are surprised that she also streams – even though she has been doing this for two years, which is longer than Dilara.
Not only the audience, but other content creators also present challenges for Anna. She recounts situations where creators approach her and ask if she can ask Dilara certain questions.
In those moments, Anna feels like Dilara’s manager, which intensifies her frustration.
Even long-time contacts treat her differently by asking Anna to bring Dilara. Anna can hardly hide her annoyance and asks whether these contacts are only reaching out to her because of Dilara.
What are the reactions to the interview? Under the TikTok clip of the interview, Anna experiences a mixed reaction from viewers.
Some wonder who Anna even is or doubt that she truly wishes Dilara success. One user writes: “Who is this Anna? Do you have to know her?” or: “I think maybe more envious – don’t know – because she has been in it much longer”.
Others appreciate Anna’s honesty and openness. They find her likable as she openly talks about the downsides of her success.
One user writes: “She comes across as really likable because she is honest and openly talks about benefiting from it as well”.
Another user mentions: “I find it likable, she also points out what bothers her. Dilara is usually so only positive, I am somehow too old for that”.
