Where would we be without TheHannaBeth

Speaking of the latter, Hanna laid the blueprint for the influencer model we have today when she first signed up for a Myspace account at 15. As she explains it, what she was doing as a teen — going on Model Mayhem, finding any photographer who would shoot her, styling and doing her own makeup — is precisely what she believes Instagram has turned into today.

"Back then, it was exciting to be yourself — to really be yourself, and people loved that," she says."Now I feel like everyone wants you to be the same... Back then it didn't matter how many likes you got or what was going on." Things are quieter for Hanna now. At 30, she's less interested in shots in the club and friending strangers on the internet. Instead, most of her evenings are spent binge-watchingwith her best friend, bowling, or hanging out with her younger brothers — activities she relishes as definitively offline. In fact, if there's one big difference in her life now, it's that Hanna has established a staunch separation between the URL and IRL in the past decade-plus.
