TIKTOK’S MOST VIRAL TRENDS OF 2024

TikTok has ranked their most popular viral trends of 2024:
1. Baby Animals: Moo Deng the baby pygmy hippo, and Pesto the Penguin pulled the most viewers.
2. The catchphrase “Very demure, very mindful.” It came from Influencer Jools Lebron in October and exploded on social media, with over 54 million views.
3. Cucumbers. Logan Moffitt, a food influencer known as the “cucumber guy” got over 43 million views with a video showing how to make a creamy cucumber California roll.
* Food Network president: “Fire Guy Fieri! Get me CUCUMBER GUY!”
* “And I want 10 cucumber-based competition show concepts on my desk by the end of the day!”
* We’ve come a long way since cats playing a piano… kind of. Maybe not.
* You may think this trending stuff is dumb, but you have to admit the unbridled randomness of the public is truly remarkable. Baby Hippo, demure, and cucumber. It’s like one of those cognitive tests: “Remember these three things, I’ll ask you to repeat them later.”
