DEEP DIVE

The “Said Sum” celebs dancing trend on TikTok sees creators syncing videos of their favorite celebrities dancing to music from Moneybagg Yo’s “Said Sum” remix featuring City Girls and DaBaby. These videos began growing in popularity around Oct. 7. There are over 161,000 videos linked to the audio.

Lyrics:

City Girls make ’em wish like Ray J (Let me talk to ’em)
All these n*ggas wanna f*ck JT (They do)
Hellcat, this a SRT (Skrrt, skrrt)
Pull up, G-Wag’ 63 (Ow)
Make a fifty-five suck they teeth
He want a ménage with a nеw body (Ow)
Man, you n*ggas can’t f*ck with me
‘Cause I came from thе bottom (Yeah)
From the feds to the charter (Yeah)
Broke b*tches ain’t sayin’ a thing, period (Yeah)

The trend appears to have gotten legs after footage of Sarah Paulson dancing paired with “Said Sum” went viral on the app.

Videos that have emerged as part of the trend since, often have the caption, “You’ve seen Sarah, but this time it’s…” These videos tend to feature older celebrities, specifically middle-aged women.

The trend has seen a video of former First Lady Michelle Obama:
