Harry Potter is one of the most popular movie franchises in the world, so it’s not a shocker to see many TikTokers use it as a source of inspiration for their clips. Vicky from Germany built a huge following on this social media platform thanks to her hilarious clips that will take you straight to Hogwarts.
Vicky goes by @redheadbegins on TikTok, where she’s followed by 300,000 people so far. She came up with a character named Loca, who’s portrayed as a stereotypical beer-loving German exchange student at Hogwarts, who doesn’t have time for anyone’s nonsense, including Lord Voldemort’s.

Vicky was a huge fan of Harry Potter movies growing up and it became one of her favorite fantasy worlds thanks to its rich lore, but how did she decide to start this hit TikTok series?
“The series started out after I saw another creator, @munchy_monk, make an ‘If JK Rowling wrote a Latino character’, poking at the fact that any non-English characters in her works are heavily stereotyped and shallow. So I added the ‘If JK Rowling wrote a German character’ as a part of that series, given that I’m German myself,” Vicky told Tag24.
In addition to being a successful TikToker, she’s also an aspiring actor, mostly focusing on theatre during her college acting studies in Texas.
