The Breakout Stars Of RushTok 2025!

Every Fall, TikTok turns Greek life into a spectator sport, and 2025 is no different. This year’s “RushTok” has given us a new class of viral personalities whose charisma, drama, and OOTDs are taking over feeds beyond Sorority Row. We are spotlighting 8 breakout stars -- all from the University of Alabama -- that everyone’s talking about, and what makes this year’s RushTok uniquely addictive!

1. Izzy Darnell

No surprise here, Izzy Darnell is the name on everyone’s lips. As the younger sister of 2022 RushTok icon Kylan Darnell, Izzy entered Rush Week with an instant spotlight. Many fans expected her to follow Kylan’s footsteps and go Zeta Tau Alpha. Instead, she shocked everyone by withdrawing before Bid Day. Her TikTok announcement, where she ripped open a mock bid envelope, was pure reality TV gold. In the end, Izzy proved you don’t need letters on your chest to leave your mark on RushTok.

2. Chesney Stanley

From the very first day of recruitment, Chesney Stanley had RushTok hooked. What made Chesney stand out wasn’t just her charm but the way she built anticipation. With her radiant energy and suspenseful updates, viewers were desperate to know where she’d land. The reveal? Alpha Phi. Her recruitment journey felt like a binge-worthy miniseries, keeping thousands invested in her next move. Now, with a captivated audience and a flair for storytelling, Chesney has the kind of momentum most creators dream of.

3. Georgia (Gigi)  Metrock

If RushTok had a runway, Gigi Metrock would own it. Her iconic OOTDs -- think bold colors, polished accessories, and a confidence that screamed “main character” -- earned her the title of this year’s style queen. On Bid Day, she ran home to Kappa Alpha Theta, cementing her place as RushTok’s fashion darling. She demonstrated that fashion, confidence, and creativity could make someone a breakout star. 

4. Elaina Baugh

Elaina turned “Get Ready With Me” videos into an art form. Her chatty, relatable GRWMs resonated beyond Greek life, pulling in viewers who simply loved her energy. By Bid Day, she found her home at Delta Zeta, bringing her ever-growing audience along for the ride. Now, with a growing fan base and a reputation as RushTok’s “comfort creator", Elaina is poised for a bigger spotlight and has turned her rush journey into the launchpad of a much larger digital presence.

5. Brooke Goodrich

With her sweet charm and steady updates, Brooke became a quiet fan favorite. Her journey to Alpha Chi Omega wasn’t about shock value but about genuine vibes. For many, Brooke’s journey was proof that authenticity thrives on social media. Sometimes, it’s the wholesome, steady presence that leaves the longest impression.

6. Becca Bittman

Becca’s witty commentary, GRWMs, and subtle style earned her a loyal following. On Bid Day, she joined Gamma Phi Beta, carrying her new sisterhood straight into her TikTok narrative. Becca’s ability to mix clever commentary with personal storytelling has set her apart as more than just a RushTok participant; she’s a creator with the potential to grow far beyond recruitment season.

7. Jaelyn Hanna

Jaelyn’s Bid Day reveal was one for the books. She ran home to Zeta Tau Alpha, and RushTok couldn’t resist repeating the iconic ZTA line: “Only the best get crowned.” Consider her coronated. For fans, she embodies the kind of glamour, poise, and sisterhood energy that makes RushTok such an addictive watch year after year.

8. Tanisha Castle

Tanisha delivered a Barbiecore fantasy every single day of Rush Week. Her hot-pink aesthetic, complete with bubblegum accessories and playful edits, made her daily OOTDs go viral. When she ran home to Delta Gamma, fans celebrated it like the season finale of a show they’d been binge-watching.

From bold exits to unforgettable aesthetics, RushTok 2025 continues to blur the lines between campus tradition and pop culture phenomenon. Greek letters may fade into the background, but these personalities are already writing the next chapter of influencer culture!
