Tumblr Famous is a term used on Tumblr, for people who surpass 1k+ of followers. Quite a few of them are younger than all of tumblr, and or unattractive but will receive notes on their selfies because duh, they have more followers than you.

tumblr famous people use different techniques to gain followers. they tell you how you will gain a large amount of followers, when you only gain 20 or less.
- follow this moron and like/reblog for a shoutout. first to #
- follow this bitch and like/reblog. one lucky winner will be randomly chosen
- follow a shit load of these famous blogs who are in a network, reblog the shit out of this post, likes will not count because were assholes, and YOU WILL ALL GET PROMOTED or # OF YOU WILL BE CHOSEN RANDOMLY.
- *posts picture of tumblr user name on urban dictionary*
"user ____ is an amazing person, has # of followers and blah blah crap blah blah"
other users will comment saying more shit or agreeing, while the tumblr user mentioned will comment saying "omg my followers are so nice!" "IM CRYING" "YOURE ALL SO SWEET" etc
Tumblr was a blog site for people to be able to post whatever the fuck they wanted and not be criticized or sent hate. But now, its become some piece of shit site like twitter, where people ONLY CARE ABOUT HOW MANY FUCKING FOLLOWERS THEY HAVE.
If you have less than 100 or whatever followers, be happy. Because you fucking earned them all by having an awesome blog. You are a true blogger. Four for you tumblr user, you go.
Tumblr Famous user: hey you know that chick just posted on tumblr the truth about how we gain more followers than the ones who reblogged that post?
other ft: oh man shes letting everyone know the truth! we need to stop her!
*networks/famous tumblrs work together to report and somehow manage to get this blog/account terminated.
