It’s about that time of year when our brains start switching off and all we want to see are cute yearly wraps and even cuter videos. Well buckle in because we have the top five TikTok video that Australia sent viral in 2021.
“It’s been amazing to see people come together to support each other, spread joy, share their talents and passions, and most of all, celebrate our Australian-ness in all its forms,” said TikTok Australia and New Zealand’s General Manager, Lee Hunter.
They’re surprisingly fairly diverse, too, so I guess I was the only one dealing with my existential lockdown dread by mindlessly binging food content that I was never going to cook.
1. Winnie The Cattle Dog
I can’t blame the millions of people who enjoyed watching this adorable, clumsy dog take on life.
2. A botched nostril wax
I honestly have no words for the people who have signed on to watch this failed nose wax situation — ruined manicure and all. I’m happy not to be on this side of TikTok.
3. A cleaner PlayStation
I’ll admit I started this video on a high, not because I own a PS4, but because my inner neat freak enjoys #CleanTok. But then I kept watching. It’s honestly unclear if they’re still together.
4. A wholesome little dance
I enjoy a TikTok dance as much as the next person, and I enjoy that this one makes dancing feel accessible even for me and my lanky limbs.
5. A cheeky bird
This parrot is honestly the star of TikTok in my opinion. He’s a constant pick-me-up on my FYPage. I’ll be honest though, I prefer the sass in this video, when his owner dares speak over the top of him.
