2021 Year End TikTok Trends

Dena and Melissa start the show discussing the year in review and the new year ahead. 

Audio Trends 

The first audio trend comes from @s_johnson_voiceovers saying, “This is a work of art. This is bullshit.” We feature other takes on it from @diybri and @fluentlyforward. 

Song Trends

The song “Fool” by Frankie C is trending. Lizzo (@lizzo) uses it to show herself talking about her crushes. A mashup called “Jr Stit x bruno mars x adele” is used by creators showing their year in review. Someone also mashed up Mariah Carey’s Christmas song and Bing Bong. 

Viral Breastfeeding Cat Video

A weird viral video of a woman breastfeeding her cat on a plane is making the rounds on TikTok. We feature an explainer from @washingtonpost.  

Stovetop Potpourri 

The latest TikTok trend involves making “simmer pots” or “stovetop potpourri.” We listen to a funny video from @whoistaylorhamm. 

Dyson Hair Dryer 

The trendiest Christmas present this year was the Dyson hair dryer. Maybe if we had our lives together we’d get it too, until then we are hoping @neat.caroline can help us.  

Celebrities on TikTok 

We talk about the latest celebrities making waves on TikTok including Ed Sheeran (@edsheeran) and Ted Cruz’s daughter.
