A Distinguished Gentleman

Tiny human hands have become a popular prop used on social media by influencers, particularly those in comedy. They became prevalent with their frequent use by Canadian TikToker Kristina Collins (@kallmekris). She uses these props when portraying children in her videos, mostly on the characters of Riley, Misha, and Sergei.

With her quick rise to fame and rapid boost in followers (20th most followed “TikTok” account with 45.9 million followers as of August 2022), other influencers also started using them frequently. This cat looks like a distinguished gentleman, clasping its hands, and sporting a noble or dignified appearance from the neck down.
