The Latest TikTok Trends in August 2021
1. One of the biggest TikTok Trends in August:
Dom Toretto and Family
@ryanairThe Ryanair family’s got your back😌 #ryanair #foryou #fyp #ryanaircrew #fyp #domtoretto♬ family is more powerful than the TVA – Alex Dodd
This has been one of the biggest TikTok trends in August. It pokes fun at the Fast and Furious franchise’s obsession with “family” and inserts Dom Toretto wherever it can.
2. That Wasn’t Real
@rodMe on my 5th grade essay: “if I could travel anywhere it would be Genovia” #nostalgia #90skids #throwback #princessdiaries♬ Yelena Belova gets emotional aka dont say that – Behan the Scene
Marvel’s Black Widow came out in the last few weeks, and the dynamic between the two sisters has been a huge hit. And the sound from the scene where they argued has been used ironically by the fans. This August TikTok trend is a great opportunity to talk about those things that you just believe to be real.
3. Look at Where You Came From
@kallmekrisHoppin on this trend💃🏼♬ Bezos I by bo burnham – ✞ Sam ✞(23.9k)
TikTok simply loved Bo Burnham’s latest Netflix special “Inside”. There has been many creative responses, but this trend stuck around in particular. As the lyrics suggest, this is a trend where you “Look at where you came from, look at you now”, and share your biggest transformation.
4. Running Through the 6 with My Woes
@kate_johansson♬ Know Yourself – Drake
This is one August TikTok trend where you say something, and then do a double take realizing what you’ve just said. In Know Yourself, Drake says “Running through the 6 with my woes” twice, but with more emphasis the second time around. So creators have been using the sound to share their sudden realizations.
5. Freezing Honey
@lalaleluuReply to @sqiudward_smells Note to self: don’t eat three mouthfuls of honey in the morning, it will cause urgent bowel movement♬ original sound – Lala
Have you ever tried freezing honey or are you normal? Apparently, it turns into a runny and sticky popsicle. Do I like honey? No, yuck. Do I still want to bite into that sticky mess? You bet.
6. The Olympics
@angiepangie98is there a medal for tiktoks or…? #olympics #tokyo #tokyo2020 #australia #newzealand #usa♬ original sound – angiepangie98
We all loved the thrill of following the Olympics. But what shocked us the most, was realizing the Olympians were actual people. Many were on TikTok, sharing their experiences in the Olympic Village. Both those videos and the ones responding to them became big hits.
7. Baby I’m A Gangster Too
@kenzp21I wanna see you try and interrupt me #internationalrelations #intern #summerintern #polisci #nyc #debate #mun♬ jealous girl lana del rey – !marvete, the asgardian
This TikTok trend uses Lana del Rey’s Jealous Girl to talk about those villains in your life for whom you’re a perfect match.
8. This TikTok Trend in August Hits Too Close Home:
I Got Three Looks and That’s It
@gracegsworldFor reasons this is a joke IB: @thecorporatemama #corporate #wrh #jeffreybezos #backintheoffice♬ I got 3 moods Bo Burnham – Julz Morriz
You think you’re a very deep and multifaceted person? Well guess again, because it turns out most of us are pretty much summed up in just three moods. This is the TikTok trend in August that hit just too close home.
9. Ehe Te Nandayo
@alysa.ruppertjup♬ EHE With Slap – 🫀throckmorton🫀
Ever wanted to slap the sheesh out of someone for some nonsense behavior? This is where you get to practice that. This sound has two versions, one with the slap and one without. But the version that ends in a slap went on to be a bigger hit.
10. Questions I Get Asked A Lot
@meghantrainorQuestions I get asked all the time…♬ The Magic Bomb (Extended Mix) – Hoàng Read
What are some questions that you just keep hearing? Real or nonsense, this August TikTok trend lets you showcase the questions you receive. What’s better is that you don’t even have to answer them!
BONUS: Dancing Queen Challenge
@elliedixonmusicyou know i had to harmonise the #dancingqueenchallenge ✨ thank you @sammyraemusic for this STUNNING riff #singing #music #riff #harmony #fyp♬ original sound – Ellie Dixon
The rising platform really loves one-breath singing challenges. The latest edition challenges everyone to take one deep breath and sing an entire verse from Dancing Queen.
