33 year old Bear Bailey has always loved to sing but thought his dream was dead because of his age. Until TikTok and his local gas station brought his dream back to life.
Bailey had been taking song requests a cashiers at his local gas station named Melissa McGee and her two daughters who also worked there. They recorded him so he decided to put the video up on his TikTok and in less than two weeks of posting it he has gained more than a million followers!
“They found out I could sing, you know, just from living around here, and so on the days that I would go in there to get a snack or whatever, they’d say, ‘Hey, Bear, you’ve got to sing, you’ve got to sing for me,’” Bailey said.
