Overview of TikTok’s Viral “I Like My Suitcase”Trend
The “I like my suitcase”trend on TikTok gained momentum in November, following the resurgence of a nostalgic video featuring Barron Trump, son of former President Donald Trump.
Although Barron is currently 18 years old, the clip of him as a young child captivated listeners around the world, showcasing an endearing moment as he engaged in conversation about his day.
Origin of the Trend
In the viral video, Barron, preparing for lunch, expressed his enthusiasm with a simple statement: “I like my suitcase!” What caught the internet’s attention was the way he pronounced the word “suitcase,”which sounded like “soot-case.”
Celebrity Engagement and Inspired Creations
The trend attracted a variety of TikTok users and celebrities, including Paris Hilton. In a playful twist, she shared a video where she lip-synced to Barron’s phrase while perched on her own suitcase, captioning it: “I like my slivcase.” This creative rendition took place in front of her lavish Christmas tree, further amplifying the trend’s appeal.
