August 2023 TikTok Trends

On today’s pod Catalina and Dena start off with their weekend in NYC which takes them to the topic of the Europe Test, described by @emmatopp. The algorithm is also serving Catalina ice cream (@asmrdecomida) and Dena is learning about the concept of “girl math” from creators like @fvhzm, @samjamessssss, and @channingstatum. After an unfortunate update about the Attenzione pickpocket lady they delve into some newer audio trends, including @madelineargy’s plea to find out what DJs really do which was, of course, turned into a remix featured in videos by creators like @loudluxury. Additional audio trends include the European dance song by @kylegordonisgreat and the so-called “Ken Milkshake” by @anikahjayne. Their content creator spotlight of the week is @mollybmcpherson and @alabamabarker, daughter of Travis Barker, is featured as the latest celeb drawing attention on the app. For food and drink trends the girls discuss the omelet from the Bear (@gourmetgab) and their very disparate feelings on a McDonald’s ice cream creation. Finally, they wrap up with a quick chat regarding @therealqueenofversailles who has returned to the public eye full force and is featuring a very confusing simulation of a private jet in her living room.
