Education and the beginning of her career

There is one thing which is somehow special about Annie because you don’t see it that often – she is home-schooled.

All the credits for the start of Annie’s career and for her interest in what she does go to her parents. She started attending gymnastics classes at the age of two, and about a year later, her parents started posting videos of her and her brother and sister on their vlog YouTube channel Bratayley. She stopped taking gymnastics classes in 2017 but is still in shape for it. Not a lot of people know the reason why she stopped taking these classes – the truth is that her fans recognized her and started to follow her around, which Annie had a real problem with.

Music career

It might sound strange to someone that a 14 year-old girl has a career, but it is true – Annie has more fans than you could even imagine. Her parents launched a YouTube channel for her in 2008 called “Acroanna”, on which they uploaded Annie’s gymnastic videos, and her tutorials even though she was only three at the time. She later on changed the name of the channel to “Annie Leblanc” in 2017, and started uploading her own songs and cover songs on the channel: “Fly” (cover song), “Little Do You Know” (cover song with Hayden Summerall), “Birds of a Feather”, “Photograph”, “Ordinary Girls” and “Little Things”, the last one was uploaded onto YouTube in 2018. She has already had two tours – “The Left Me Hangin’ Tour” in 2017 and “Rock Your Hair Tour” in 2018. She has over 13 million fans on her account “annieleblanc” on the app musical.ly. Annie also landed a pop country compilation album on iTunes, entitled “Lollipop”.

Acting career

Annie’s acting career started in a rather odd way. Annie collaborated with another social media star – Hayden Summerall – on a YouTube cover song called “Little Do You Know”. Fans thought how that the two of them were dating, and they created fan-fiction with made-up storylines about their relationship. They even photoshopped the two of them together in pictures in order for it to appear more realistic, calling them “Hannie”. It was this weird fans’ obsession which helped Annie become an actress. Rob Fishman, the founder of Brat media, heard about “Hannie”, and decided to put them into an upcoming show as a couple. One weekly American entertainment trade magazine and website “Variety” announced how these series named “Chicken Girls” were going to be released on Brat’s YouTube channel., and it was officially released in 2017, showing a group of friends and dancers at Attaway High living their everyday lives.

It attracted an amazing number of over 10 million views on YouTube, and although the second season was released the year after, it was not as popular as the first season. The third season started airing in September, 2018. “Chicken Girls” got so much attention that Lionsgate decided to make a full-length feature movie. It is also planned to turn the show into a book series. Other than “Chicken Girls”, Annie also co-hosted the series “We are Savvy” in the summer of 2017, which was focused on music and fashion.
