Whitney Leavitt

Whitney Leavitt has made unusually quick work of a breakout year. Having first built her audience on TikTok as part of Utah’s MomTok scene, Leavitt entered 2026 with a much bigger profile following The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and a standout run on Dancing with the Stars.

She lands a place in the Highly Rated tier thanks to her ability to turn that attention into opportunities rarely open to creators. That includes Broadway, with Leavitt debuting as Roxie Hart in Chicago and proving a draw at the box office. Demand extended her original six-week run, and by March the production had recorded the highest-grossing week in its 29-year history, taking more than $1.45 million. She has already booked her return, joining Just in Time as Sandra Dee in December.

Leavitt has also begun turning that growing profile into something she can build on commercially. In April, New York dirty soda brand Cool Sips appointed her as its first chief creative and brand officer. Leavitt is helping shape the brand and develop new products, including her own drink, The Whitney.

The breadth of opportunities now coming Leavitt’s way suggests her breakout has plenty of room to run. She enters the Index with considerably more paths open to her than she had a year ago.
