Interview with Noah Tijerina

Noah Tijerina, at just 15, took the world by storm in a few short hours. You probably know him from his #dontjudgeme challenge that went viral around the world over night. I sat down with the boy behind the video to get more information on this Instagram sensation.       K: When did you start to notice your fame on social media really start to pick up? N: I really won't consider it fame because I do not consider myself famous. I'm just a regular teenager who posted a video for fun. I never thought it would've blown up the way it did...but after the #dontjudgemechallenge video is when the attention started coming. https://instagram.com/p/5abRq2qyPH/   K: When you grow up what do you want to do? Have you considered being a YouTuber? N: When I grow up I plan on going to college to get my degree in the dental industry. Then I plan on joining the air force as an officer then becoming an orthodontist in the military. After my 20 years of service, I plan on retiring and opening my own practice. I never really thought about being a Youtuber, but I'm down to give it a try.   K: We’ve all seen your #dontjudgechallenge how do you feel knowing that the video got worldwide attention? N: I'm not really to sure how I feel that my video has been seen worldwide because I never thought It was going to go that far.

N: The last movie I've seen and one of my all time favorite movies is Rocky!   K: What item can you not leave the house without? N: I can't leave my house without my phone, not so much because I need it, but because I'm a mommas boy and she likes for me to check in while I'm out.   K: Celebrity Crush? N: My celebrity crush is most definitely Jennifer Aniston.   K: Favorite TV show? N: I don't really have a favorite tv show because I don't really spend that much of my time inside, but if I had to choose one it would be the Netflix tv series "Daredevil".   K: How has your family taken your sudden rise to fame? N: My family has taken my sudden rise in "Fame" same as I have, one step at a time, this is something very different for my family and I.   K: As we conclude what would you like to tell your fans?
