Have you had someone knock on your door recently and ask to sleep in your bed? Or perhaps you’ve had someone yell at your tour group that she just got engaged. There’s no need to fear, folks, that’s just Megan Million.

Although the last name Million is one she made up, she said Megan Million is her “most authentic self,” and she may not reveal her last name as she likes her viewers to remain curious about what her real name could be.

Million, a sophomore majoring in advertising and public relations, has been catapulted into stardom recently with her fun and playful antics that turn heads wherever she goes. Although she originally started posting health and wellness videos, the San Diego, California, native decided to start filming dorm room pranks during her freshman year.

If you’ve seen any of Million’s posts, you’re familiar with her most infamous prank in which she knocks on random people’s doors stating she’s been kicked out by her roommates and progresses to ask if she can sleep in their bed. Typically, those being asked look confused, and Million often ends up swiftly running away down the hall. The videos have turned Million into an overnight sensation as she’s amassed over 150,000 followers on TikTok and almost 50,000 followers on Instagram.

“I’ve always been a very outgoing, joyful person, and so people have always told me ‘You should do social media,’ but I never really thought about it, but I decided to try it out freshman year. I started doing pranks at the end of freshman year, like more personality videos and those started blowing up so I decided to stick with that,” Million said.

Her videos, the brainchild of her whim and creativity, have amassed the sophomore over 31 million likes on TikTok. Unlike other TikTok celebrities who pride themselves on routine and schedule, Million says her videos are done almost instantaneously when the idea pops into her head.

“I never plan out my videos. I literally saw a tour group like 10 seconds ago and I, on the spot, came up with something and fully did it and am about to post it after this meeting. I’m super good at execution and just doing it and getting it done, and then posting it right away,” Million said.

Paired with her vibrant imagination and love for social media, Million also echoed the importance her work ethic plays in her success as a rising star.

“I definitely have a super strong work ethic where I get things done, and that really comes to show with how many videos I post.”

Million posts anywhere between two to three times a day and likes to keep her viewers entertained with new content, as she’s recently collaborated with Penn State Barstool and Katie Feeney. While Million said she tries not to let social media affect her close relationships, she’s emphasized the importance of having other friends in the social media world.

“I always talk about social media with my club friends who are people from REACH, and we’ll always bond over, and we’ll jokingly compete. We’ll be like, ‘Oh my God, first one to 100,000 on Instagram,’ and it makes it feel so much more normal. I leave each meeting and hang out with those people feeling like, ‘Alright, I want to keep going.'”

REACH, a club at Penn State designed to help young entrepreneurs and social media personnel like Million, has also given her a newfound motivation outside of her own work ethic.

“The people in my club just uplift me and motivate me so much and I’m so thankful for them,” she said.

However, social media wasn’t always Million’s idea of what she planned to do in life.

“A lot of content creators say that they had been wanting to do YouTube since like 6 years old, and they had been wanting to do social media all their lives, but not me,” she said.

Originally, Million had hopes of getting a degree and pursuing a career in tech sales, but she’s seen her recent rise in fame as a blessing. With her recent brand deals with Dunkin’, Amazon, and Saxby’s, Million is seeing how her newfound fame can help strengthen her connection to the Penn State community.

From serving as a Dunkin’ representative during the THON 2025 Showcase to helping pass out coupons promoting the Corner Room, Million is finding herself in a role she never thought was possible.

Million’s main mission from starting to post consistently was to simply “spread positivity and good vibes,” and she feels she’s done just that.

“There were a lot of haters, especially because I do a lot of out-of-the-box type content, so I do get a lot of mixed reactions,” Million said. “Honestly, I’ve had so many people tell me they’ve become so much more confident because of me. They’ve come to Penn State because of me, or they’ve had a mindset change because of me. I’ve had so many positive things said to me that they outweigh the negative by a thousand miles.”

Million also recognizes that with fame, comes the added layer of public opinion and disapproval as she sees it as something she’s “worked for.”

With this mindset in place, she sees it as a reminder to keep kindness in mind when going about social media and to remember that things are never that serious.

Although Million has had some awkward and unexpected run-ins while filming videos, she emphasized how her positive experiences overshadow her negative ones. Million explained the impact of followers and fans sharing how her videos have made a positive impact on their lives as a main reason for continuing to post and create positive videos.

“I don’t even care about brand deals,” Million said. “Being able to buy whatever I want now is amazing, but the fact that this girl is having a bad day and the fact that my videos actually have an effect on someone where they are in a better mood, I don’t even know how I did that. I think that’s so cool that someone will be sad and then start smiling.”

As Million’s fan base and fame continue to grow, she hopes to get a manager to help with the craziness of social media while still hoping to finish her degree. After all, Million realizes that social media may not last forever, and she would eventually like to go into tech sales after graduation.

“I’m really good at sales and have done door-to-door sales, which is so funny. Now that I do social media, I don’t know what that will look like, but I’d still like to go into tech sales because you never know this can go away at any time.”

And, for those who want to be just like Million, she has a few pieces of advice.

“Really figure out if it’s something you want and work hard. I know everyone says find a niche, but you don’t need to find a niche,” Million said. “Just find something that makes you feel good and good about yourself.”
