Taylor Lautner says he's "team Jacob" in viral TikTok trend
Taylor Lautner, who portrayed Jacob Black in the "Twilight" saga, has joined a popular trend on TikTok. Humorously, he evaluated the film relationship between Bella and Edward. The video quickly went viral on the internet.
The trend "camera flip" has gained considerable popularity on TikTok. The fun involves displaying advice or a request on the screen that benefits a specific social group, age group, or individual. Suddenly, the phone's camera "accidentally" reveals who is behind the recording. It then transpires that the message on the screen is intended to improve the situation of the person holding the phone.
In theory, it might sound complex, but in practice, it proves to be very amusing. The trend includes, among others, a dog demanding that people feed it for two hours a day, or it will starve; or a cat suggesting that scratching furniture should be allowed since it makes them appear more rustic. Many artists, politicians, and celebrities have joined in the fun as well.
Taylor Lautner in the "camera flip" trend on TikTok
A strong contender for winning the "camera flip" trend is Taylor Lautner. He is an actor who rose to fame through his role as Jacob Black in the "Twilight" saga. He played the character of a werewolf who befriends the main character, Bella Swan. Their bond becomes so strong that Jacob falls in love with Bella, though she has stronger feelings for the vampire Edward. Jacob hopes until the end that Bella will choose him.
In the video shared by Taylor, we see a scene from the saga where Bella and Edward get married. The screen displays the message: "Honestly, screw Edward. Bella should have ended up with Jacob." After a moment, the camera "accidentally" shows who is behind the recording – Taylor himself.
"Camera flip" decided? Taylor Lautner out of competition
The recording amassed over 60 million views on TikTok in less than 24 hours after being posted. Internet users agree that the "Twilight" star won the trend: "Everyone, go home, he won this trend," "I screamed 'I agree' before I saw who posted the recording," "I'm glad I didn't notice who made the recording and just watched the video first." These are just some of the comments under Taylor's video. Do you agree with them?
