Why These Trends Are Crushing It

1. Mini Vlogs: Your Life, But Cuter

2. Food Challenges: The Messier, The Better

Status: Viral sensation
Why it works: Watching someone cry over a Carolina Reaper pepper = prime entertainment. Plus, the “Could I do this?” factor hooks viewers.

3. 60-Second DIYs: Pinterest, But Faster

Status: Consistently popular
Why it works: “Turn old jeans into a tote bag” sounds doable… until you actually try it. But hey, the dream sells.

4. Dance Challenges: TikTok’s Legacy Lives On

Status: Evergreen
Why it works: A catchy song plus simple moves equals instant participation. Even your grandma might attempt this.

5. Pet Fails: The Internet’s Comfort Food

Status: Heartwarming and shareable
Why it works: Cats knocking over water glasses will never not be funny.

FAQ: “How Do I Jump on These Trends?”

Q: How do I find what’s trending?
A: Stalk the Shorts tab like it’s your ex’s Instagram. Or scroll through what’s dominating your feed in the “Explore” section.

Q: What if I’m not a dancer, chef, or life coach?
