Tinx Is 'Honored' to Have Built a Community of 'Smart' and 'Passionate' Single Women: 'We're in It Together'

Tinx, real name Christina Najjar, is the big sister every single girl wishes they had.

The influencer gained a massive following thanks to her insightful dating advice and ability to put a positive spin on the struggles young people face.

Tinx speaks exclusively with OK! about building her community of fun singles, how she's stayed true to herself amid her rise to fame, dishing out advice on her SiriusXM show, It's Me, Tinx LIVE, and her partnership with ACUVUE contact lenses.

Since the social media star began posting videos online, she's encouraged her followers to let go of any shame they're feeling and be honest about what they're really going through.

"I feel so lucky to have the audience that I have," Tinx explains. "They are a group of people — predominantly women— who are really smart, fun and really want the best for themselves and for the world. They're open to debate and they're passionate. I've learned that by being vulnerable and putting yourself out there, you can bring like-minded people together. I feel honored to have done that in some small way. We're in it together."

"There are great people out there. A lot of people are going through the same things," the radio personality emphasizes. "A lot of people are struggling with being single or with the fear of getting older or not knowing what they want to do with their lives, but people are going through the same things. It's really just about putting everyone in one place and having a conversation. It makes everybody feel better."

With Tinx's rapid rise to fame, it would have been easy to lose sight of who she is. Instead, her authenticity has remained at the heart of her success.

"Sometimes, especially during times like Fashion Week, I go to a lot of events," the social media personality notes. "I know for people watching, it's overload. Every influencer they follow is wearing fancy outfits, showing pictures of champagne, caviar parties and fancy runway shows. I get to a point where I'm like, 'Whoa, I've got to mix it up and shoot a video in my kitchen having a coffee when I'm hungover or something. Because that's who I am. I'm a little bit of this and a little bit of that."

"Comparison is the thief of joy is one of the things that I always go back to," she says. "Lots of times when I'm feeling down in the dumps, I'll be like, 'What started this?' And then I'll be like, 'Oh, you saw this person whose career you're jealous of,' or you saw this person's perfect body on the internet. Whatever it is. A lot of unhappiness from life comparison is at the root."

In 2022, Tinx began her weekly live radio show, It's Me, Tinx Live, on SiriusXM's Radio Andy, where fans can call in for specific advice.

"It's so intimate. I love that you can't overproduce it," she gushes of getting calls from her listeners. "We never know who's going to call. We never know what the person's going to say. We cannot control how long they talk for. Even though some people say, 'Cut that person off. They've been talking for too long.' We never know what it's going to be. In a world where everything is so overproduced, and so fake and so airbrushed, the radio is raw. It's in real time. I like that. It's a breath of fresh air. That's why people tune in. They want a little bit of that."

Tinx is now partnering with ACUVUE, a brand she says has improved her life.

"I've used ACUVUE for years now, so it was a really natural partnership," she reveals. "It's also the best possible scenario for an influencer to be able to talk about something you actually love and genuinely use every single day of your life. I use the contacts every single day. Truthfully, being able to see without having to wear glasses gives me confidence. It does boost me up. It's allowed me to have more flexibility in my life and is a product I'm so passionate about."
