About this deal
I have dreamt of having my own doll line since I was a little girl,” said Addison Rae. “I worked with Bonkers Toys on every detail of the dolls and toys to inspire young kids to dream big.”
Addison keeps collaborating with numerous luxury brands, including Pandora, Vital Proteins, IPSY, Alani Nu, Uptown Cheapskate, American Eagle, Chantilly Boutique, Daniel Wellington, Disney, McCary’s Jewelers, Reebok, Nintendo, and Fashion Nova, among others, further solidifying her financial status. It’s the same feeling, really, as watching a bunch of straight TikToks. While Rae offers flashes of promise, especially when she pops her genuinely winning smile, she doesn’t make the case for TikTok-to-film-stardom here. The chemistry between her and Buchanan is stilted, at best. But it would be unfair to place the movie’s dullness on her shoulders. She’s one of many algorithmically successful parts in this ultimately stale bait for nostalgia, a recipe that does not amount to charm. The beats of the 90-minute film mirror the original: within minutes, Padgett has discovered her boyfriend, a wannabe viral music star with bleached hair named Jordan Van Draanen (Peyton Meyer), cheating, had her livestreamed humiliation go viral for a particularly unflattering shot of a tearful snot bubble, lost her sponsorships, and bet her social rehabilitation on the makeover of a dud guy of her frenemy Alden’s (Madison Pettis) choosing. The terms: turn Cameron Kweller (Tanner Buchanan), a cynical outcast with a shaggy haircut, beanie and a passion for photography and horses, into prom king in six weeks or be branded a loser, or something.In 2022, at Kids' Choice Awards, she was nominated for "Favorite Social Music Star" and "Favorite Female Creator"
To bring even more excitement to this partnership, Addison Rae is adding a new title to her stellar resume, Chief Fun Officer of Bonkers Toys. Known for working with mega influencers in ground-breaking ways, Bonkers Toys welcomes Addison to the family with her extensive expertise in style, design, and social media marketing.
