Squid Game Fame, Lamborghinis, and Hidden Cash: The Seductive (and Secretive) Empire of Camilla & Owen
From Viral Fame to Collaborative Stardom
Camilla Araujo, a Brazilian-American model, first captured global attention as Player 067 in MrBeast’s 2023 recreation of Squid Game. The viral video, viewed by millions, transformed her into an overnight sensation, propelling her modeling career and establishing her as a sought-after influencer. Meanwhile, her partner, Owen Lynch, carved his own path as a digital innovator. Known for hiding cash in bizarre locations (think inside a watermelon or under a park bench) and collaborating with strangers, Lynch built a loyal following of 7.05 million YouTube subscribers and 2.5 million TikTok fans (@hahowen). Together, they blend humor, creativity, and relatability, creating a dynamic that resonates across platforms.
The Art of Balancing Public and Private
Though their relationship became public in late 2024, Camilla and Owen prioritize discretion. Camilla rarely discusses her personal life in interviews, focusing instead on modeling campaigns and brand partnerships. Owen, while more open on social media, keeps their romance lighthearted. A prime example? His October 2024 Instagram post featuring Camilla asleep in his Lamborghini, captioned:
“Every young man’s goal should be to drive a Lambo and work so hard that you can have somebody’s daughter looking like this in your passenger seat.”
Their content together—whether pranks, travel vlogs, or spontaneous challenges—offers curated glimpses into their lives without oversharing. This balance keeps fans engaged while protecting their privacy.
Why Their Partnership Works
- Contrasting Styles, Unified Vision:
- Camilla’s polished, aspirational aesthetic (think high-fashion shoots and glamorous events) complements Owen’s offbeat, chaotic humor (like stuffing $1,000 into a frozen pizza).
- Their collaborations, such as challenges where they race to find hidden cash or react to fan comments, merge these styles, appealing to a broad audience.
- Strategic Cross-Promotion:
- Owen frequently features Camilla in his TikTok and YouTube videos, exposing her to his Gen Z-heavy audience.
- Camilla’s association with MrBeast’s Squid Game lends credibility and nostalgia, drawing older fans to their joint projects.
- Authenticity Without Overexposure:
They share enough to feel relatable—like Owen joking about Camilla’s “obsession” with iced coffee or Camilla roasting his mismatched outfits—but avoid divulging intimate details.

The Numbers Behind Their Influence
- Owen’s Empire:
- YouTube: 7.05M subscribers for viral stunts like “I Hid $10,000 in My Friend’s House.”
- TikTok: 2.5M followers for quick-hit challenges and trending sounds.
- Instagram: 909K followers (@hah.owen) for behind-the-scenes humor and luxury car posts.
- Camilla’s Momentum:
- Leveraged her Squid Game fame into modeling contracts and beauty brand partnerships.
- Growing Instagram presence (500K+ followers) focused on fashion, fitness, and candid moments.
Looking Ahead
Camilla and Owen exemplify the next generation of digital creators: adaptable, collaborative, and audience-savvy. By merging Camilla’s viral clout with Owen’s comedic genius—and maintaining a tight grip on their privacy—they’ve crafted a blueprint for sustained success. As they expand into ventures like merch lines and potential TV appearances, one thing is clear: this power couple is just getting started.
