He’s 9. He’s got more charm than your last 3 Tinder dates combined. And he just made “rizz” look wholesome.
If you’ve been on TikTok in the last 6 months, chances are you’ve already met Christian Joseph — better known as The Rizzler — a tiny legend with major charisma and a smirk that’s practically copyrighted.
🎥 Watch the TikTok king in action:
Who Is This Pint-Sized Prince of Rizz?
Christian Joseph is nine. But he’s not like other kids. He’s got that face — the one that says, “Yeah, I just pulled off a slow-motion chin stroke and the internet’s gonna eat it up.”
His dad first started posting videos in 2020, but Christian went supernova after a Halloween 2023 clip of him dressed as Black Panther hit millions of views.
Cue the nickname: “The Rizzler.”
(Yes, like The Riddler. But instead of puzzles, he’s solving the algorithm.)

“This kid has more confidence than me at 29. I fear for my ego.” — u/ChronicallyOnline
He’s Got the Rizz. Oxford Said So.
By 2023, “rizz” was Oxford’s Word of the Year. Coincidence? Maybe. But The Rizzler was the walking, smirking embodiment of it — especially when he introduced the now-iconic “rizz face”:
- Tilt head
- Stroke chin
- Slight squint
- Pause… Boom.

“The Rizzler’s face needs to be studied. This boy has unlocked level 100 flirt mode.”
Collaborations That Took Him Mainstream
Christian’s charm caught the eye of AJ and Big Justice — aka the Costco Guys. Their series “Boom or Doom” featured the trio reviewing everything from fashion fits to snacks, all rated by vibe.
The internet? Obsessed.

“Christian just out-rizzed two grown men in matching tracksuits. Legendary energy.”
By the end of 2024, he had over 1.6 million followers, his own merch drops, and an invite to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where he confidently taught Jimmy how to rizz in front of America.
The Rizzler IRL: Marvel, Pizza, and Popcorn
It didn’t stop at TikTok. In April 2025, Christian showed up at the Marvel Thunderbolts* screening in NYC — dressed as Red Guardian, serving attitude, and taking photos like he owned the red carpet.
Then came his Austin pizza review.
“Home Slice Pizza? 9.7 out of 10.”
— The Rizzler, straight-faced, one hand on his imaginary mic.

“Why did this child just make me crave pizza AND reevaluate my self-worth?”
Rumor has it he’s also in talks to guest on major podcasts — because of course he is.
Why Gen Alpha Can’t Stop Watching
Christian isn’t just adorable. He’s got it. That natural camera magnetism, timing, and sass that most adults try to fake.
And he’s everywhere — from TikTok to TV to red carpets — but somehow still feels like the kid next door who’s just way cooler than you.

“We are witnessing the rise of a future talk show host, actor, or president. Maybe all three.”
