Popular TikTok star Dixie D’Amelio explained on the 2 Chix podcast why she’s now making a conscious effort to change her “monotone” voice after it became a trend to do impressions of her on TikTok.
With over 50 million followers on TikTok, 19-year-old Dixie is among the most popular creators on the whole platform, and with sister Charli sitting as the most followed creator with over 100 million followers, the sisters are a strong team.
But being so prominent in the social media world means they are often the topic of conversation, and recently it has become a trend on TikTok to do impressions of Dixie’s distinctive voice. Particularly, people like to imitate a line she said in an interview with Vogue.

In an episode of the 2 Chix podcast, Dixie explained why the videos have made her want to put effort into altering her voice.
“I’ve just been talking a lot more which I don’t love, but I’ve also been trying to change my voice so it’s not as annoying,” she began. “Obviously, you guys know that there are a bunch of videos making fun of my voice, and I understand I’m very monotoned and it’s really annoying and I’ve never really noticed it until it was called out.”
She continued: “So I’m trying to talk better, I guess? Just more with a smile, I feel like it helps. But if it’s still annoying let me know, or I’ll just shut up forever. No, I’m kidding. I feel like it’s one of those things, my voice was just lazy. And I used to not talk like that, and I think I just got really lazy and didn’t care, so that’s why I started talking like that. You know what I’m talking about.”
