Five Latino TikTokers traded 9-to-5s for a Hollywood Hills house. This is how they live
When she was growing up in New Jersey, Alexia Del Valle had a mural of the Hollywood sign on her bedroom wall. She dreamed of making it out to Los Angeles.
She doesn't need paintings anymore. Now that she's part of the Familia Fuego, an all-Latino TikTok collective living high in the Hollywood Hills, she can have the real deal whenever she wants.
"I got here and looked outside our window, and there's the Hollywood sign," said Del Valle, 23. "I literally was crying."
A world-class view is one of the many perks that come with being part of the Familia. Del Valle moved into the group's $2.2-million shared home last September. Ever since, she has been brainstorming ideas, collaborating on videos and advancing her budding entertainment career alongside four other young social media stars: Leo González, Monica Villa, Jesus Zapien and Isabella Ferregur. With the backing of DirecTV and the influencer marketing firm Whalar, the quintet have gone from working service industry day jobs to doing shots with Neil Patrick Harris, watching the Chargers alongside Roddy Ricch and living down the street from Quentin Tarantino.
