Popularity on this app is very often based on creativity, skill, and overall the original dance routines created by users. Every so often a dance routine becomes a viral hit, and other users of the platform post their own versions copying the original user. This is the trend of Tik Tok dances. Dances often will start off with a smaller creator that is creating some sort of choreography for any type of song. Eventually, larger creators will find these dances and post videos of them completing the dance. Once a larger creator posts the dance on their account with a large following the Tik Tok dance will often go viral. This is why it is called a dancing trend because once one person does it everyone else will eventually.
Overall this Tik Tok trend is interesting to me because I am not a very good dancer so seeing other people be super great at it is very cool. I don’t often see the twins or Michael on my feed while scrolling through Tik Tok while everyone knows Charli. I follow Charli and she is a very graceful dancer who gets her timing and rhythm down leading her dances to be just right for her Tik Tok page. I would rate this trend an 8/10 because seeing people do something I am not the best at is very cool especially when they do it with too many different songs.
My favorite OG Tik Tok dances are - The Renegade, The Box, and Savage. There are many more I could add to this list these are some of the more popular ones I like.
For many people when they think about Tik Tok dancing their mind goes to one person Charli D’amelio. Charli has 150.1 Million followers she has the most followers compared to every other user of the app. Charli has been a dancer since a young age starting out when she lived in Connecticut. She got famous for posting dancing videos back in her home in Connecticut in 2019. She and her family now live in California making a large amount of money off of their popularity and sponsorships in videos. I guess she could say making a Tik Tok isn’t a waste of time as for many others that is not the case. Charli’s Tik Tok profile is growing daily and she continues gaining money from sponsored videos she often posts.
The second most famous Tik Toker dancer is Michael Le he has 52.1 million followers. Le is a well-known name on YouTube and TikTok, where he posts dance videos. He makes dance videos to popular songs by various artists and frequently choreographs other dancers. He is a very talented dancer which helps his Tik Tok videos gain likes by how smoothly he completes the Tik Tok trends. He rose to fame in 2016 when he posted music videos of himself dancing.
The next well-known tik toker dancers are the Rybka twins who appeared on America's got talent. This helped them rise to fame before even creating a Tik Tok account. The sisters are known for their dancing and acrobatics on YouTube and TikTok- and it seems their followers cannot get enough. “There are so many dances to choose from on TikTok,” Teagan said. These sisters are acrobats they can complete many tricks that wow many people. Often they will post their choreographed dances with Tik Tok songs that are trending. As they are trained dancers they can pull off a Tik Tok trend in no time.
