Jake Shane shares Taylor Swift’s recommendation he love
The 25-year-old content material creator and rising actor just lately stepped out for the Webby Awards, the place he mirrored on recommendation he’d give to his alma mater, Northeastern College, particularly after attending its latest commencement to help good friend Elliot Grainge, who served as graduation speaker.
Channeling some Taylor Swift-level knowledge, Shane advised Us Weekly, “I think it’s similar. I think Taylor Swift said this once, but it was like, ‘If people are talking about something you’re doing or, like, making fun of you, you’re doing something right.’ … I took that to heart.”
Shane, who shot to fame in 2024 along with his delightfully unhinged but traditionally impressed TikToks, hasn’t slowed down one bit.
Between juggling his Therapuss podcast, his Reside With Jake Shane Tour, and a formidable leap into appearing, the multihyphenate is clearly in his hustle period.
Talking of appearing, Shane simply landed a visitor spot on season 4 of Hacks, the place he’ll be enjoying the function of “Social Media Girlie”—an ideal match, let’s be actual.
However getting there wasn’t all instant-viral magic.
“I didn’t get the first role I auditioned for, but then they presented me a second role and I just kept trying,” he advised Us Weekly.
“I did everything I could and shout-out [creators] Paul [W. Downs], Lucia [Aniello] and Jen [Statsky]. They are out of this world. Incredible, the whole Hacks team is just amazing. It couldn’t have been a better experience.”
“I really want to get into acting. I just did my first acting thing. It’s not announced yet. It’s small, but it’s really, really, really cool, and I’m really excited about that,” he teased again in March.
“So hopefully that opens more doors. I’m really, really hoping to get into that.”
