Kim Kardashian Joins Broadway The Fear of 13 Producing Team

After making a name for herself on TikTok, Charli D’Amelio took a spin through the Dancing With the Stars ballroom in 2022 before bringing those skills to Broadway with her October 2024 debut in & Juliet.

While the influencer was supposed to end her run as Charmian in January 2025, it was extended twice.

“I’m beyond excited to join the Broadway community—it’s a dream I’ve had since I was a little girl,” she said in a September 2024 statement ahead of her nearly yearlong run. “To be able to make my Broadway debut—especially in the cast of & Juliet, is truly a dream come true, and I can’t wait to share this experience with everyone.”

While it was her first time on a Broadway stage, starring in the dance-heavy role as one of William Shakespeare’s Company of Players, it felt natural given her extensive experience.

“Dance was always very special to me,” she told ABC7 that November. “I used dance as a way to communicate in a way I can’t always do with my words.”

Though, it was still hard to grapple with such a prestigious honor.

“I spent so much of my time growing up, never thinking that I would get to be in a room like this, and always doubting myself,” Charli—who also won her season of DWTS—said. “I’m just so thankful for everyone that helped get me here, and for my mom. She was driving me to dance classes. She was driving me to dance competitions. Just kept reminding me that I could get somewhere with dance even when I doubted myself.”
