Trending on TikTok: The blue lines are you
TikTok users get ready for their big break with the #ActingChallenge top trend. Take a deeper look at content form this trend in addition to top videos, creators, songs, and effects.
Current Top Trend: #ActingChallenge
TikTok creators hit the stage and showed us that there's more than one way to read the script.
Acting Challenges have always existed on TikTok in a variety of formats. From people who lip-sync dialogue from television and film, to POV-style content where users develop their own dramatic scenarios, acting has always been on TikTok.
Those formats have coalesced into a single popular trend that has gained notoriety on platform. In this version, users create "Acting Challenges" in which they encourage others to duet them and read specifically-colored dialogue from the original video. "Acting Challenge! Duet me. You are the blue line." Once the duet is complete, it creates a scene between the two users.
Initially, these were intended in a somewhat serious manner, but because the TikTok community is the TikTok community, the videos quickly shifted to embrace a more light-hearted and comedic perspective.
