In a heartwarming interview last year on “New York Living,” six-year-old Cassidy Bridges charmed viewers with her infectious enthusiasm and remarkable journey from viral sensation to published author.
A year and a half earlier, the young star gained fame with a video that garnered over 5 million views, capturing hearts with her joyful personality.
Cassidy, who was joined by April Showers, founder and CEO of Afro Unicorn, the brand featured in her viral video, shared insights into her unexpected rise to fame and her new role as an author.
During the interview with “New York Living”, Cassidy expressed her surprise at the video’s viral success, recalling how her genuine interaction resonated with viewers worldwide.
“I actually thought it was gonna be a normal video. I did not know that it was gonna go viral,” she said.
April Showers, visibly proud of Cassidy’s achievements, highlighted how their collaboration blossomed into Cassidy becoming a published author.
The book, titled, ‘Thank You, It’s An Afro,’ which was inspired by Cassidy’s viral video and featuring Afro Unicorn’s signature style, marked a milestone in Cassidy’s journey.
The book is the true story behind Cassidy Bridges’ self-love and afro appreciation that has inspired people around the world and is presented by Afro Unicorn, a brand created to uplift women and children of color and normalize Black beauty.
Reflecting on her future aspirations, Cassidy shared her dreams of inspiring kindness and diversity, embodying the spirit of “black girl magic” that Afro Unicorn celebrates.
