February 2024 TikTok trends you need to know 

The “If I Won The Lottery” trend

If you won the lottery, would you tell anyone? It’s well known that publicising your win could lead to issues within your close circle. With that, this latest trend centres on the belief that if the creator did win the lottery, there would be signs. Examples include owning a private island with one single house, botching themselves up with cosmetic procedures, a fridge full of cheese, and more. This trend is usually a photo slide show, where the first image is of the users themselves. Meanwhile the second slide onwards would be something they’d spend money on.

Without a doubt, when Hailey Bieber unveiled her Rhode phone case in an Instagram picture, many people went wild (especially when it hadn’t even been released yet). With TikTok being a platform for just about everything, various users decided to do their own DIY. Whether it’s scotch taping their Rhode lippie on their case or using double-sided velcro, TikTokers have made their own version of this iconic and innovative product.

Another viral sensation is the lengthy series “Who TF Did I Marry?” Narrated by the creator Reesa Reesa, she explains her messy experiences while married to her ex-husband, whom she calls “Legion.” Now, what makes people watch these clips is the plot. It’s a 50-part story, and takes around 5 hours to finish. Although there are no visuals as Tessa is either at home or in her car, the plot, the tea, and the details are crazy to the point that so many are tuning in, they’re even making TikToks of themselves listening to the series.

TikToks of a sad hamster and violin music have been appearing everywhere. It’s basically a TikTok trend that tells of a feeling where we have to do something we don’t want to do or face a certain situation. That feeling is represented by a sad, big-eyed hamster paired with a violin composition by Richard Myhill, “Woe Is Me.”

“What You Won’t Do For Love” by Bobby Caldwell, a viral song on TikTok now

♬ What You Won’t Do for Love – Bobby Caldwell

The classic “What You Won’t Do For Love” hits number one on TikTok’s Billboard Top 50. Released in 1978, this hit has resurfaced once again due to a viral chocolate-covered strawberries video. Many question why this video became mega-viral, hitting 303.1 million views and 38.9 million likes, and many put it down to its simplicity. Since many creators try hard to produce exciting content, thinking of new ideas, and so on, sometimes the audience just wants something simple. With this new food-theme TikTok trend, simply recording something and vibing to the song’s beat is just a nostalgic reminisce of those times.
