Bob Dylan Joins TikTok Days Before Potential U.S. Ban

The 83-year-old musician launches his account as the Supreme Court deliberates the app's future in the United States.

Bob Dylan debuted on TikTok with a verified account on January 14, sharing a video featuring clips from his career set to his iconic songs.
The launch comes just days before TikTok faces a potential U.S. ban on January 19, pending a Supreme Court decision on its Chinese ownership.
Fans have reacted to Dylan's late arrival with humor and hope, with some jokingly calling for him to 'save TikTok' from its uncertain future.
TikTok has confirmed it will shut down operations in the U.S. on January 19 if the Supreme Court upholds the law requiring ByteDance to sell the app.
Dylan's TikTok debut coincides with the release of 'A Complete Unknown,' a biopic about his life, which has garnered positive reviews and renewed interest in his music catalog.
