As a toddler, did you know about the Four Seasons Orlando? Just over a week ago, TikTok user and mom @sobrizzle posted an innocent video of her asking her family “Who wants to go to the Four Seasons Orlando?” The confident response from her family, specifically, her baby son saying “ME!” surprised us all. Now with over 63.6 million views, the video has gone viral with many creators recreating the trend with a text overlay.
The ‘who you’re actually emailing’ TikTok trend

If you work in corporate, you’ll know that professional headshots are a big thing. However, this month’s TikTok trend has created a little twist within this culture. The video starts with the creator showing his or her corporate headshot with the text “Who you think you’re emailing” with classical music in the background. Then the image transitions into a video of who the creator is outside of work, with the rap song ‘SkeeYee’ by Sexyy Red and a different overlay text “Who you’re actually emailing.”
The “Darling, can I be your favourite” TikTok trend

Another viral transition trend going around uses the lyrics from the song “Favorite” by Isabel LaRosa. In this video, TikTokers share a before and after photo of themselves. Whether it’s them as a kid versus now, or them before and after their big glow-up, we’ve definitely witnessed some crazy contrasts.
The “when my crush told me… so I posted this” TikTok trend

We’ve all done things we regret. However, when it comes to growing up in the age of social media, sometimes those actions can haunt us to this day, as everything posted online stays online. With that, many users have decided to revisit their past, making a meme of some of their foolish actions when they had a crush.

After part one of Bridgerton season 3 was released, there were many viral trends going around. Whether it’s about Penelope and Colin, Daphne, or even the “Give Me Everything” by Pitbull Bridgerton version, this show has been the talk of the town to the point of obsession.
TikToker @lifeofasillygirl posted a video of her with the overlay text saying “how I started speaking my friends/family after binging Bridgerton.” Throughout the video, users can see her respond to people with Bridgerton-style dialogue such as, “Oh dear, you forget yourself,” “I should bid you farewell,” or “Make haste.”
