Since the "Red Bikini Girl” went viral last week after a video of her dancing at a party gained millions of views, she has opened up about the attention she has received and what her biggest dream is.
The young French woman called Oceane was filmed at a party in Lloret de Mar, Spain, where she danced cheekily with a friend.
In the video, she first appears to be annoyed about being sprayed with water before she turns around and dances flirtily with someone off-camera.
The 13-second-video quickly went viral across multiple social media platforms and has sparked thousands of people to comment on her appearance or attempt to get in touch with her.
Now known online as the “Red Bikini Girl”, one user described her as "the most popular lady on the internet right now."
In a self-recorded video posted to social media, the swimwear-clad stunner who goes by the username @aora.dj said she had no idea she was being filmed and has been left stunned by the video's popularity.
When the video first blew up, she told her new followers: she said: "Hi, it's Océane. The question that comes up most often is… I won't say more [about that]. The scale this is taking on is becoming huge.
"I'm proud of it and [it lets me] show other women that no matter what they look like, it's important to be proud."
While a lot of the comments on the viral video are from men and therefore fairly creepy and unwanted, she also thanked the women for their support.
Oceane explained: "[The comments are] largely from men, yeah, not very nice, but now I actually laugh about it…
"[My account] is called @lesfillesalloret… and the support from girls in Lloret de Mar… and then, like every woman really, in the end. I'm very happy this way."
In a more recent Instagram post, the aspiring DJ opened up to her 89,000 followers about what she has loved about being exposed to so many new people and how it has simply spurred her on to continue chasing her dream.
In a caption on the picture of her in the red bikini, Oceane wrote: “What makes me the happiest is that you just discover the real me: a natural, spontaneous girl who loves to laugh, enjoy life and be herself.
"It's pretty crazy to see this famous red bikini all over the social media.
“I will continue to live every moment with the same sincerity and work to achieve my biggest dream: to become a DJ.”

The "red bikini girl" has spoken out after a party video amassed more than 100 million views on social media.
Océane, who is known online as the "Red Bikini Girl," was filmed during a party in Lloret de Mar, Spain.
The 13-second clip quickly spread across multiple platforms, including X, where it has been reposted countless times.
As the video's popularity continued to grow, one user even described her as "the most popular lady on the internet right now."
The French woman, who goes by the handle @aora.dj, said she had no idea she was being filmed and has been left stunned by the video's popularity.
Speaking in a video shared online, she said: "Hi, it's Océane. The question that comes up most often is… I won't say more [about that]. The scale this is taking on is becoming huge.
"I'm proud of it and [it lets me] show other women that no matter what they look like, it's important to be proud," she added.
While the clip has garnered millions of views, Océane says not all of the attention has been positive.
"[The comments are] largely from men, yeah, not very nice, but now I actually laugh about it…"
She also thanked the women who have shown their support: "[My account] is called @lesfillesalloret… and the support from girls in Lloret de Mar… and then, like every woman really, in the end. I'm very happy this way."
Océane's comments come as more women use social media to encourage body confidence at every age.
One of them is 70-year-old content creator Shannon Nelson, who recently went viral after wearing a bikini for the first time in 45 years.
Speaking to PEOPLE, Nelson said she had always believed swimsuits were "something you had to qualify for with the right kind of body" before her 15-year-old niece, Lily, encouraged her to try on a red string bikini.
"Lily just said it very casually, like it wasn't a big deal at all," she said. "That's what stuck with me. At a certain age, you assume there are things you're not supposed to wear anymore, and she clearly hadn't gotten that memo."
After posting a video wearing the bikini, Nelson racked up 3.2 million views and received thousands of supportive comments.
"Girl, you look absolutely amazing! Wear the damn bikini," one user wrote. Another chimed in: "A BADDIE IN RED!!!"
A third added: "STOP IT!! you look FABULOUS!" and a fourth said: "Why am I smiling! I love this video. Such a great example for women of all ages to be proud in your skin your in. Plus it does look incredible on you, she was right."
The influencer said she might wear the swimwear again because at this age, "who am I trying to impress?"
She also hopes her experience will inspire other women to wear whatever makes them feel comfortable. "I'll take comfort over style any day," Nelson added.
As for her niece's reaction, she said: "She thought it was completely normal - which, in a way, was the whole point."

A woman dubbed the 'red bikini girl' has revealed the question she gets asked the most after a video of her at a party was viewed over 100 million times.
Océane, a 20-year-old French content creator better known online as Aora DJ, became an overnight internet sensation after appearing in a 13-second video filmed at a party in Lloret de Mar, Spain.
The clip quickly spread across multiple social media platforms, including X, where it has been reposted countless times.
Despite becoming the face of a viral moment, Océane previously revealed that she had no idea she was being filmed when the video was captured.
Now, she's opening up about her life and addressing the question she says she hears more than any other.
Speaking in a video shared online, Océane said the question she receives most is: "Are you in a relationship?"
Rather than satisfy people's curiosity, she made it clear she's keeping that part of her life private, adding: "I won't say more."
Instead, she reflected on just how overwhelming the experience has become, and admitted she's still struggling to process how far the video has spread.
Océane explained that the experience has allowed her to take ownership of both her body and her image while encouraging other women to feel confident in themselves.
"I'm proud of it and [it lets me] show other women that no matter what they look like, it's important to be proud," she said.
While millions of people have viewed the video, not all reactions have been supportive.
Océane acknowledged that many of the negative comments have come from men, and admitted they initially affected her.
"[The comments are] largely from men, yeah, not very nice, but now I actually laugh about it…"
She also expressed her gratitude for the women who have rallied behind her throughout the viral moment.
"[My account] is called @lesfillesalloret… and the support from girls in Lloret de Mar… and then, like every woman really, in the end. I'm very happy this way," she said.
Shortly after the clip exploded online, Océane also shared an emotional message on Instagram reflecting on how dramatically her life had changed.
"Hello everyone ❤️ My name is Oceane (Aora) I'm 20 years old," she wrote in the message translated from French to English.
"Barely 24 hours ago, a video published on the Les Filles à Lloret account completely changed my everyday life. I was absolutely not expecting such a buzz, and I'm still in shock to see this video go around the world.
"What makes me the happiest is that you just discover the real me: a natural, spontaneous girl who loves to laugh, enjoy life and be herself. It's pretty crazy to see this famous red bikini all over the social media."
"I will continue to live every moment with the same sincerity and work to achieve my biggest dream: to become a DJ," she continued. "Thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your messages, kindness and support. Thousands of you are encouraging me already, and it really touches me."
"Let's just be ourselves. We are free to be who we are," she concluded.
An Australian Instagram influencer has gone viral after sharing an "important" bikini snap.
Taking to the social media platform, Sarah Davidson (Holloway), shared a picture of herself lounging by a pool in what many would class as a classic #bodygoals snap, but all was not as it seemed.
In addition to this picture, she'd also included two more realistic pictures of herself in a bikini - makeup-free and belly rolls out.

She captioned the photos: "How I sometimes look in swimmers vs how I mostly look in swimmers."
Sarah added that she had been "reflecting on how harshly we compare ourselves 90% of the time to other people's 10% of the time."
She continued: "It's so important to keep a grasp on perspective and be kind to yourself in this crazy landscape we find ourselves in."
Needless to say, Sarah received a lot of praise for keeping things real on a platform that's repeatedly come under fire for promoting unrealistic body and lifestyle standards - even in the wake of the Body Positivity Movement.
One Instagram user gushed: "You look really good.'
Another added: "Keeping it real. Beautiful inside and out even with your bloops.”
A third praised: "OH MY GOODNESS."
While a fourth commented: "I love you. Can't wait to meet you one day. You are so inspirational and an amazing human being."
And a fifth said: "Lol I love you."
In the video below, Bebe Rexha talks about body positivity and her love of Nandos:

Thankfully, Sarah isn't the only person using social media to try and change beauty standards for the better.
One plus-size Instagram influencer has made the brave decision to speak about her journey from suffering from anorexia (an illness often inspired by unrealistic body standards) to body positivity.
And Gigi and Bella Hadid's plus-size cousin has also opened up about being comfortable in her own skin, despite being related to two of the world's best-known and classically beautiful supermodels.
With the huge increase in "influencers" and "Instagram models" over the last decade, it is hard to go anywhere without stumbling across somebody having a photo shoot. Just the other day I was walking through London's Westend, and I must have stepped over at least four Instagrammers just to get into the Wicked matinee.
But apart from cityscapes, one place you're guaranteed to find a model's makeshift photo shoot is the beach. Not only are the glistening sea and gorgeous sand enough to frame any #Wanderlust pic, but its the perfect excuse for these stunning models to don their best bikinis and show off what they've got.
However, as the beach is a public place, it means these beautiful models with have to slum it with average joes like myself, as this model soon found out.
Despite working her best moves, it was her hilarious photobomber who stole the show:
[[jwplayerwidget||https://content.jwplatform.com/videos/Cv9zyFcd-sKUnNGKf.mp4||Cv9zyFcd]]
Seemingly oblivious to the uninvited guest, the model continues to work her best angles as she poses in a skimpy red bikini.
And it's not just the fact the sexy shoot is ruined by an elderly man in Speedos - it really isn't - it's the fact he has a cheeky smile beaming across his face, as if he knows he's ruined every single one of her shots.
And the people of Twitter were quick to respond to the video, originally posted by Carmelo Sgori, with their sheer delight at the older gentleman's iconic photobomb.
It just proves that if you've got it - flaunt it. And even if you haven't got it - flaunt it anyway.

Britney Spears has posted a video of her at the beach topless - and people won't stop commenting on one hilarious detail in the background.
Yesterday, the 40-year-old 'Womanizer' singer posted a video of herself rolling around in the sand at the beach, showing off her white and blue bikini before going topless as she posed for the camera.
She captioned the fun-loving clip: "Baby Did a Bad Thing PART 2 !!!"
Check out the video below:Fans who have followed the pop megastar for a while, will already be accustomed to her topless posts. So this aspect of the video alone was not much of a novelty.
What Spears' followers couldn't stop pointing out, though, was that there was a man in the background of her video - who many fans assumed was her bodyguard - standing around awkwardly while the singer posed sans bikini top.
One person wrote alongside three laughing emojis: "The dude in the background."
Another added: "The bodyguard is like 'let me look the other way.'"
A third said: "That man standing there, awkwardly, is whom everyone is wishing they were right now."
A forth commented: "The guy in the background pretending not to look."
Yet another chimed in to write: "The guy in black was shooketh to see Britney Spears flash him. Queen of chaos I love you."
A sixth fan added: "Lol your bodyguard in the back politely standing letting you do your thing."
A different commented weighed in: "Her security guy literally doesn't know what to do with himself."
Spears is no stranger to topless posts on Instagram.
In fact, last year, the music icon shared her reasoning for the provocative posts.
She explained in the caption for an image carousel she uploaded that she was "born into this world naked and I honestly feel like the weight of the would has been on my shoulders and it’s made me view myself that way !!!! I wanted to see myself in a lighter way … naked."
She continued: "I am a woman …. a beautiful … sensitive woman who needs to look at myself in my purest form !!! No … I’m not going to do topless pics for the rest of my life cause that would get boring but it sure as hell helps when you need to be enlightened. [sic]"
