“Illegal” by PinkPantheress is Gen Z’s latest TikTok obsession. This gen is no stranger to taking short song clips and turning them into full-on trends, and this summer it’s all about “Illegal.” On TikTok, young people are mouthing the lyrics “my name is Pink and I’m really glad to meet you, you’re recommended to me by some people” while shaking hands with friends, siblings, or even strangers. In true Gen Z fashion, the trend is used to show all kinds of “meetings”—from siblings highlighting how different they look to actors meeting for the first time on set. Everyone’s jumping in, including Gen Z celebs like Ginny & Georgia’s Sara Waisglass and PinkPantheress herself who have gone viral with their own takes on the trend. (TikTok)
