The current TikTok trend, “match my freak,”involves individuals revealing the unusual activities they partake in when alone, expressing a desire for companionship while engaging in these peculiar habits.
The ‘match my freak’ TikTok trend gained popularity in June. To participate in the trend, creators prompt their followers by asking if anyone is willing to “match my freak.”
Subsequently, they describe the unconventional activities that they typically partake in by themselves but would prefer to have someone join them.
Behind the viral videos, TikTokers are utilizing Tinashe’s song ‘Nasty’ which features the lyrics, “Is somebody gonna match my freak”as the background music.
On June 12, just one day after the season’s premiere, Ariana Madix, the host of Love Island USA Season 6, shared her perspective on the trend.
In the video, she was captured reclining in her dazzling gown while filming for Peacock’s popular show. She then inquired if anyone would join her in indulging in their peculiarities by ordering pad Thai and quietly analyzing over 50 episodes of Love Island, with the air conditioning on and snuggled under large blankets.
