Top Women on TikTok for Women over 50
@NonnaPia
Everyone’s favorite Italian grandma, Pia Quaglieri, 83, became a TikTok sensation simply by sitting down to write out her weekly grocery list. Her grandson Antonio taped her doing this simple task and uploaded it to his TikTok account. Hours later, he was shocked to see how many people had viewed the video. Today, Nonna Pia has her own account with 2.7 million followers. Watching her cook for her family with so much love (and no written down recipes) is guaranteed to remind you of the best meals you shared with your mother or grandmother (not to mention make you crave pasta and homemade sauce immediately!).

@TheStylequation
Sometimes we all look in our closets, and regardless of how many items we see in there, it still feels like we have nothing to wear. If this happens to you often, Jennifer Elbehar’s TikTok may be just what you need to make getting dressed a lot easier. Ebelhar, who has over 152K followers, explains trends (such as the Coastal Grandmother craze) and gives fashion advice to help mature women find the styles that work best. Her tagline is “When nothing fits, I curate an elevated wardrobe for your unique figure.”
@thestyleequation Who needs an excuse to get dressed up? #mailbox #dressedup #fashionover50 #cabistylist #cabiclothing ♬ original sound – Iesha Gilchrist
@ExcuseMyGrandma
If you have heard your kids or grandkids using phrases like “I can’t believe he ghosted me” or “I’m going to slide into her DMs” and thought, “I have no idea what they are talking about,” you are not alone. Get educated on current lingo and the latest trends by watching Grandma Gail Rudnick as she learns all things millennial from her granddaughter Kim. But don’t worry, this TikTok duo isn’t just about Gail getting schooled. Wise Grandma also educates her granddaughter by sharing her life advice on everything from dating to fashion.
@excusemygrandma Which one of these have you guys gotten #texting #textreaction #dating #datingnyc #nyc #grandma #fyp #foryou ♬ original sound – excusemygrandma
@RetirementHouse
What would happen if the Golden Girls invited a few men to live with them, and together, they started a TikTok account? It would probably be lots of fun and tons of laughs, just like the Retirement House. Tune in to watch seniors Rose, Mabel, and Bubbe (along with Curtis, Eugene, and Larry) as they take on the latest TikTok trends, dances, and songs. With 3.6 million followers, this crew proves that getting older is not a reason to stop having a good time.
