Tiktok Trends - October 2025

Introducing "TikTok Trends 2025" – your source for staying ahead of the game on the latest TikTok crazes!

TikTok trends move fast, and if you're not quick, you'll miss out. But let's be real, keeping up with TikTok trends can be a hassle. That's where we come in.
Each week, we'll keep you updated on what's hot on TikTok (by spending way too much time scrolling). From trending hashtags to popular sounds and formats, we've got you covered!

Please note:

• Currently, our focus is primarily on TikTok, but we're exploring other networks. It's worth testing these trends across all platforms to see what resonates best with your audience.
• Trends are generally very short, which may concern you about not mentioning the product enough. However, the mistake would be to tack on promotional elements after the video. It's crucial that the video stays true to the trend, lasts only a few seconds, and captures the essence of the need your service addresses in a brief timeframe.
• Not all trends will be suitable for every brand. It will be up to you to choose the ones that seem most relevant to your message and goals.

The “Beez in the trap” trend

Nicki Minaj meets 4 Non Blondes in one of TikTok’s wildest mashups. This viral remix blends “What’s Up?” (1993) with Nicki’s iconic “Beez in the Trap” (2012), and creators are using it to deliver one of the most satisfying camera reveals of the year.

The format’s simple but effective: the video starts soft and soulful with “What’s Up?”, showing one person dramatically lip-syncing the opening verse. Then, just as the beat drops, the camera pans or spins to reveal a second person behind them, instantly switching the vibe as “Beez in the Trap” kicks in.

The contrast is what makes it addictive, a switch from heartfelt to hardcore, emotional to confident, or quiet to chaotic. It’s part comedy, part performance, and 100% TikTok gold.

How to do this trend

• Grab a friend (or film both roles yourself). Start the video with one person (or version of you) lip-syncing to “What’s Up?” with over-the-top emotion.
• Position yourselves back-to-back. One person should be hidden from the camera at the start.
• When the remix switches to “Beez in the Trap,” spin or pan the camera to reveal the second person bringing the energy.
• Change your look, lighting, or attitude to exaggerate the shift from soft to fierce, calm to chaotic, or innocent to unbothered.
• Bonus: You can add props, filters, or a Halloween twist (some creators turn into vampires, villains, or their alter ego when the beat drops).

The “All that trouble” trend

TikTok’s poetic side is peaking again and this one’s hitting everyone right in the nostalgia. Using Tim McGraw’s “Everywhere,” creators are looking back at all the chaos, heartbreak, and detours that somehow led them right back where they started.

It’s the “full circle moment” aesthetic: quiet, ironic, and just a little bit bittersweet. Whether it’s ending up with the ex you swore off, taking back the job you once quit, or realizing your “new chapter” looks suspiciously like your old one, this trend turns reflection into art.

It’s emotional, cinematic, and surprisingly funny depending on your twist.

How to use this trend

• Add Tim McGraw’s “Everywhere” as your audio.
• Start your video with calm B-roll, something cinematic or everyday: walking shots, city lights, scrolling your camera roll, or sitting in your car.
• Add your on-screen text starting with “All that trouble just to end up with…” and finish it with your ironic or heartfelt punchline.
• Match the visuals to your story: use throwback clips, screenshots, or new footage that visually connect the dots.
• Keep it simple. The charm is in the sincerity (or the irony).

Some text overlay ideas

• All that trouble just to end up back in my hometown.
• All that trouble just to end up addicted to iced coffee again.
• All that trouble just to end up loving the chaos I once ran from.
• All that trouble just to end up loving the chaos I once ran from.
• All that trouble just to end up with the guy I said was “too nice.”

The “The Lion(ess) does not concern” trend

It’s time to channel your inner apex predator energy: cool, confident, and unbothered. This trend celebrates the art of not caring about the small stuff.

Creators are pairing the line “The lion(ess) doesn’t concern him(her)self with [blank]” over clips of them ignoring chaos, making questionable choices, or living life on their own terms. It’s effortless confidence turned meme, and that’s why it’s everywhere.

How to do this trend

• Use the caption: “The lion(ess) doesn’t concern him(her)self with [blank]”
• Layer it over a short clip or photo of yourself doing something unbothered or slightly chaotic (bonus points if you look smug while doing it).
• Keep the tone playful, it’s less about actual lions and more about unapologetic human behavior.
• You can film it or use a photo carousel for an equally funny delivery. Works well as a video or a still meme post.

Funny scenarios to use

• The lion does not concern himself with expiration dates.
• The lion does not concern himself with responding to “ok” texts.
• The lioness does not concern herself with her screen time report.
• The lioness does not concern herself with folding laundry immediately.
• The lion does not concern himself with how many times he’s reheated the same coffee.

The “Backup dancer” trend

This trend is pure chaos, and that’s why it’s gold. It starts with someone lip-syncing dramatically while another person dances their heart out in the background, usually because they’ve been promised something in return.

Think of it as a playful bribe disguised as a performance, “I told him if he was my backup dancer, he could watch two football games in a row.” The fun is in how seriously the “backup dancer” takes their role, giving full main-character energy for the smallest reward.

How to use this trend

• Pick a lip-sync audio: something upbeat or dramatic works best.
• Grab your “backup dancer.” They don’t need to know the choreo; enthusiasm is 90% of the trend.
• Film one person lip-syncing in front, while the other dances passionately (or ridiculously) in the background.
• Add your on-screen text explaining what you promised them in exchange for being your backup dancer.
• Keep the tone light and funny, exaggeration is key.

Some text overlay ideas

• …I wouldn’t make him go to IKEA this weekend.
• …I wouldn’t complain about her driving.
• …I would buy her all the books she wanted.
• …I’d take his Friday shift.
• …I’d do the dishes for the whole month.

The “AI Prank” trend

This trend is pure chaos and AI is the unsuspecting accomplice 😏

Creators are using AI-generated images to prank their partners, friends, or family. The setup? Create a hilariously unrealistic (and usually suspicious) scenario using AI photos, then text it to someone to see how they react. The results are absurd, dramatic, and chef’s kiss levels of TikTok humor.

It’s part comedy, part social experiment, and a great way to show just how convincingly ridiculous AI images can be.

How to do this trend

1. Generate a few AI images of a person or scene that’s funny, strange, or mildly alarming,  something that would make someone question your life choices 😭
2. Text the images to your partner, parent, or friend with a casual caption like “the plumber just got here” or “the delivery guy said you ordered this?”
3. Record their reaction (screen record or film yourself waiting for their reply).
4. Add “AI Prank” as text overlay somewhere on the screen so people know what’s going on.
5. Add in a few more AI images to escalate the story, the more ridiculous, the better.

Funny scenarios to use

• The realtor came by to check the house, but now he’s in the hot tub?
• An AI electrician “checking the wiring” while lounging on the couch.
• A delivery man bringing 12 boxes of croissants you never ordered.

The “Betrayal List” trend

Kanye West’s infamous “Betrayal List” has turned into one of TikTok’s funniest and most relatable trends, and it’s exactly as dramatic as it sounds 😭

Creators are making their own lists of everyday “betrayals,” turning minor inconveniences into personal attacks. It’s the perfect mix of pop culture, chaos, and comedy, proving that sometimes, the smallest things can hurt the most.

How to use this trend

• Choose the format: you can type out your list in the Notes app or show it as on-screen text.
• Add the Betrayal List audio (the Kanye West one) and keep your tone dead serious for maximum contrast.
• List out everything that’s personally offended or betrayed you recently, from people to events, to inanimate objects.
• End it dramatically or add a subtle zoom for effect. Bonus points if you look disappointed, unbothered, or emotionally destroyed 😌

Some examples to help you get started

• My Wi-Fi connection
• Bad weather on my day off
• The printer when I actually need it
• Coworkers who schedule 5 p.m. meetings
• My skin breaking out right before an event
• When my fries get cold

The “Sugar on my tongue” trend

If you miss the golden days of TikTok dance trends, this one’s your throwback moment.The “Like Sugar on My Tongue” trend brings back that early TikTok energy: music, movement, and a little bit of chaos.

And yes, you’ll need a fridge. (It’s the star of the show, apparently but you can make it optional if you think out of the box, literally.) Just… maybe don’t leave your phone in there too long 🧊📱

How to do this trend

• Set your phone to selfie mode and place it inside your fridge.
• Hit record and close the fridge doors.
• Play Tyler, the Creator’s “Sugar on My Tongue.”
• When the lyrics say “tongue,” open the fridge, grab the candy, and lick it (or just your finger).
• Cut that clip into a loop so the lick repeats three times: matching the song’s beat.
• When the lyrics say “your body is so sweet,” show off a dance move or quick pose.
• On “come,” make a beckoning or inviting motion: also looped three times to stay in rhythm.

Make it yours

The beauty of this trend is how unhinged you can make it.Bring whatever energy you want: goofy, sultry, awkward, dramatic. Many creators are turning it into a full comedy skit, adding props, over-the-top reactions, or even treating the fridge like a co-star.

It’s classic TikTok energy: simple, a little weird, and totally yours.

For this trend, use this sound.

The “Siren Head Funk” trend

The Siren Head Funk Dance trend is the perfect mix of spooky and funny and just in time for Halloween 👻

It starts off calm, then the neck crack sound hits… and chaos (or transformation) begins.

Whether you go full horror-movie mode or keep it light with a creative transition, this one’s all about the surprise moment.

How to use this trend

1. Start solo. Begin with a simple pose or casual dance as the beat starts.
2. Neck crack moment. When you hear the sound effect, twist your head dramatically to the side and fall out of frame.
   • If you’re alone, use your own hand to fake the twist.
   • If you’re filming with a friend, have them reach in from off-screen to “twist” your head.
3. The comeback. As the beat drops again, pop back into frame, either by yourself or with your partner, and reveal something new:
   • A creepy makeup look
   • A Halloween costume
   • Or just a new outfit / fun vibe change
4. Add your twist. Some creators break into a dance right after the transition, others keep it cinematic or comedic.

Ideas

• Halloween transition: Normal you → scary makeup or full costume reveal.
• Couples edition: One twists the other’s head → both reappear in matching outfits.
• Comedy take: Instead of turning scary, reappear with something random (like holding snacks or wearing sunglasses).
• UGC twist: Brands or creators can use it to show a “before and after”; e.g. bare face → full glam, messy room → clean setup, tired → energized.

For this trend, use this sound.
