In a YouTube video with sneaker store Kick Game, Derulo spoke about how he feels he has influenced TikTok over the years. \u201cI just had fun with it, honestly. It was a dance app at first, and it being a dance app, I felt like, \u2018I don\u2019t know if this is gonna work.\u2019 You know, everybody doesn\u2019t like to dance,\u201d he explained. \u201cSo, I was like, \u2018Let me start posting other sh*t.\u2019 I tried to post a photo, that didn\u2019t work. People was like, \u2018What the f**k is this?\u2019 Then I started to post random story-like videos. That didn\u2019t work.\u201d Topic starts at 14:00 He went on to say that what worked for him on the platform was posting content that was \u201cmore fun.\u201d \u201cI was like, \u2018Okay, this is a moment where I can be a leader and do something that\u2019s totally different on the app,\u2019\u201d he said. \u201cI think it changed the app forever because TikTok used to be just a dance app, and it wasn\u2019t until I started to introduce other things that it became the app that it is today.\u201d Jason almost revealed to viewers how much TikTok pays him, but he stopped himself short of revealing an actual figure.
