Product placement

TikTok (app): The video is about a trend on this platform. Removing it would change the context of the video. It acts as the platform where the trend occurs. Stan Store (website): The creator's bio link points to this. It acts as a storefront for the creator's offerings. Removing it would mean the creator's offerings are not directly linked.

TIK TOK LOOKALIKE TREND 👀👀

Transcript

So apparently, there is a new trend on Tik Tok, and I'm not going to lie. This one is actually pretty scary. It's called the look-alike trend and people are literally going to the search bar and typing in my look-alike and it's pulling someone up that looks exactly like them or like really close to it. And honestly, that scares the crap out of me. But if you want to try it, I'm going to show you exactly what to do. You're going to go to the search bar and you're going to type in my look-alike. This effect is going to pop up, click into that and then it's going to scan your face and then a few seconds later it's going to show you somebody that looks like you. Or like close enough to freak you out. And listen, I haven't even tried this yet because what if there is someone out there that looks exactly like me. Like the world only needs one of me but two of me. No, really no. I I can't handle that. So go try this out and let me know in the comments if you're going to do this and I'll go hype you up. Yeah.
