Danla Biliç — Biography

Born Neslihan Damla Aktepe on 5 October 1994 in Kütahya to a family of Circassian origin, Danla Bilic studied in the Psychology Department at Beykent University; she took her stage name from constantly misspelling her own name as "Danla" and from her admiration for former Beşiktaş manager Slaven Bilić.

She gained online recognition in late 2015, inspired by messages Cristiano Ronaldo had sent model Cansu Taşkın, by messaging footballers including Alper Potuk, Nadir Çiftçi, Léonard Kweuke, Emre Çolak and Thibaut Courtois on Instagram and publishing their replies on Twitter. She launched her YouTube channel in late 2016 with the breakout video "Yeditepe University 50% Scholarship Girl Makeup," hosted guests such as Ece Seçkin, İrem Derici, Merve Özbey, Kerimcan Durmaz and Derya Uluğ, appeared on Beyaz Show in 2017, and now judges the show Makyaj Avcıları with Kedi Mari and Berk Yılmaz; some posts have drawn criticism and legal proceedings. In December 2025 she was briefly detained in Istanbul, gave samples, and was released; the test came back negative in January 2026. In the summer of 2026 she underwent multiple surgeries for complications from a hip filler procedure and was rushed to hospital in July 2026, an episode she shared with her followers.
