May 2023 TikTok Trends

The girls dive right into the content on today’s episode, beginning with what the algorithm has been pushing them lately. For Dena it’s hair transplants in Turkey by way of @hanelaine and for Catalina it’s the drama-filled world of Cake Tok, masterfully explained by @marketinginmiami. Next, they spotlight their content creator of the week, @madrison.humphreyy, who is making comedic gold from what seems to be an empty office park. The Met gala was this week and the girls share their relatively uninformed takes on the event despite the fact that Catalina HAS read all of Notes on Camp and wants the world to know. Dena has an important update on the after-dark side of the Fruit Roll-Up food trend, featuring a video by @kelseydarragh and Catalina’s preferred fruity snack is the cocktail stylings of @danniwalsh123. Also on the topic of food trends, the ladies discuss a wave of videos discussing British Chinese takeout, from content creators like @charlyannec, @laurenkategriffiths, and @__mjmcm. For audio they highlight Biden by Bo Burnham (@dustyfromwisconsin), people who actually get the Wes Anderson trend right (@marta__sierra and @danclemt), their diverging views on the Fish song @hicorook and the @taylorswift April 29th trend. Finally, they close the episode chatting about @yoleendadong’s video of one of Dena’s top dislikes (outside clothes on beds) and @phoebeindc’s parody of American’s luggage in Europe
