Granny Coy Bundy On TikTok Fame & Fitting In With Gen Z
Sep 29, 2020
@GrannyCoyBundy is about to be your new favorite follow.
With 1.6 million followers, you’ll find Coy Bundy hanging in the Sway House (via green screen), getting Likes from Nicki Minaj, selling her own merch, and hitting the woah in a recent TikTok ad campaign. But Bundy isn’t another high schooler who moved into a LA collab house when she started gaining fans — she’s a grandma, aka @GrannyCoyBundy, who lives in Iowa. Below, Bundy, 46, tells Bustle about breaking into Gen Z’s territory.
This sounds bad, but I honestly think I’m on TikTok for eight hours a day. It’s my news, entertainment, it’s everything I do. It’s a break from all the crazy stuff happening offline.
It started on December 31, when I shared a video from TikTok — which my niece introduced me to a week earlier — on Facebook, saying, "2020 is going to be nothing but positive vibes. I’m just having fun." Of course, no one knew what would happen, but I’d decided to forgive everyone who’d hurt me in the past and stop being angry.
I didn’t even know TikTok was a place for Gen Z. When I went on, I saw what I did as a kid — lip sync, wear makeup, dress up, dance — and thought I’d have fun with it. Being able to fulfill my childhood dreams on an app that didn’t exist when I was younger is what helped me figure it out, and fit in.
