The Barbie obsession is far from over... Ahead of the release, which broke records on its opening weekend, the marketing team were already putting in the work to get the word out. From dedicated merch to pink food and Airbnb collaborations, the world was already painted pink before it even hit the big screen. We've since witnessed an influx of Barbiecore fashion flooding timelines and TikTok inundated with Barbie trends and challenges. But now, there's a new one in town and it's dedicated to sharing 'your Ken's job'. The challenge sees people recording their partners doing their ordinary day jobs, but describing it as though they were in Barbieland. For those who have watched the film, there's a scene in which Ken describes his job as "just beach," after giving surfing a whirl and subsequently injuring himself.

For parents, there are possibly few things more tiring and stressful than having to entertain a child all day and one mother has documented it perfectly with a day at Disneyland. A TikTok shared by a mother, Chrys Marie, has gone viral after showing what a “realistic day at Disneyland” looks like for a family with two young kids, which included a 25-minute line for the bathroom and over an hour queue for just one ride. As it turns out, Disneyland isn’t the happiest place on Earth for everyone, as text overlaying the clip read, “realistic s**t show day at Disneyland”. Throughout the video, which has had almost 3.5 million views, Marie sarcastically narrated the video. She explained: “It was hot as balls so we bought this $87 fan, oh and surely some kid had to use the restroom which was a 25-minute line. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter “Finally, after two hours, we got on our first ride which was only a 55-minute wait.” Other stressful situations included her daughter being annoyed that Minnie Mouse wasn’t there and having to meet Mickey instead and spending $12 on ice pops because the kids were “bored as f**k”. Marie hilariously explained her son also got annoyed because he had to go on the pink teacup ride. He also threw up later in the day. @chrys_marie1 The baby in my stomach was crying too ?????????? #realisticdayatdisneyland #parentinghumor #shitshow #funnymoms #toddlersatdisney #fyp #fypシ゚viral The hilarious video has been praised by others for showing the real-life ups and downs of parenting young kids. One TikToker responded: “Thank you for a realistic view of Disney. I never felt so much anxiety and anger at the happiest place on Earth.” Another wrote: “I thought I was crazy for being irritable all day spending money, waiting in long lines, and sweating an ungodly amount while listening to crying.” “Removes Disney from bucket list,” another person said. Someone else commented: “Best video I’ve seen all day. Hysterical how it’s explained.” Have your say in our news democracy.

Eurodance appears to have taken over the whole of social media as comedian Kyle Gordon’s parody song 'Planet of the Bass' goes viral. The song has led to a rare moment of unification across social media as people revel in the song that takes its inspiration from 90s pop acts like La Bouche and Aqua. Gordon’s video has been viewed over 3.5 million times and text overlaying the clip described it as “Every European Dance Song in the 1990s”. Sign up to our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The parody track itself is called 'Planet of the Bass (feat. DJ Crazy Times & Ms. Biljana Electronica)' and people have been loving it. It features an upbeat tempo, a lot of synths and grammatically incorrect lyrics, mimicking the sound and feel of 'Barbie Girl' by Aqua with a female vocalist and a male vocalist with a deep, raspy voice. Lyrics include: “Danger and dance, clapping the hands, when we out in the space, on the planet of the bass.” @kylegordonisgreat Planet of the Bass (feat. DJ Crazy Times & Ms. Biljana Electronica) #djcrazytimes #eurodance #90s #dancemusic #edm #funny #funnyvideos #funnytiktok The song has even captured the attention of some industry experts, with Mark Harris, a former entertainment journalist admitting this track would have taken off. Harris tweeted: “I was at Entertainment Weekly when this would have been a hit, and in 1997 we absolutely would have given these two a full page with a photo shoot and a very short story that tried to get around the fact that they spoke no English.” The band Aqua also commented on the TikTok, writing: “Wait, is this play about us???” Another referenced a lyric that is gaining a lot of traction online, writing: “I want a ‘Women are my favourite guy’ t-shirt.” “Eurovision is calling,” someone else hinted.

Just in case the wildfires engulfing the world weren’t enough to worry about, people are convinced a full-on apocalypse is just around the corner. The doomsday prediction comes thanks to unsettling footage that has emerged from Mexico. In the video, an Earth-shattering roar can be heard emanating from the sky which is heavy with ominous, thick grey clouds. Alarms can be heard ringing in the background, along with the frantic barks of dogs and screeching of birds, as the roar gives way to echoing trumpet-like calls. Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The clip was shared by TikToker The Paranormal Chic, who introduced it by saying: “The local news station claimed they were atmospheric sounds as a way of explanation, but the interesting part about this video are (sic) the dogs, the animals – their response to what they're hearing, and potentially the vibrations.” @the_paranormal_chic The trumpets are back and this time recorded in Mexico! #trumphets #skysounds #skytrumpets #mexico #unexplained #theparanormalchic #paranormal #haarp #cern #conspiracytiktok #conspirancytheory #conspiracion #fyp Her vid racked up more than 265,000 views and 24,000 likes in six days, as commentators attempted to solve the mystery behind the phenomenon. “In 2012, I heard the most unexplainable noise in Memphis. It scared the f (sic) out of me. Never have been able to source it. This is close, but not quite,” one wrote. “I can’t help but wonder if aliens live among us on earth, and that’s the evacuation order,” said another. Others likened the roaring sound to “Godzilla” or predicted simply: “The end is near.” A number referred to the Bible’s Book of Revelation, which states that seven trumpets will be sounded by seven angels during God’s seven years of judgement – each one unleashing a new catastrophic event. However, one TikToker helpfully pointed out that it couldn’t be one of these celestial horns because “those will be heard around the world”. The Seven Trumpets of Revelation 8-11 www.youtube.com Meanwhile, conspiracy theorists name-checked the once-controversial scientific programme HAARP (High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program), which studies the ionosphere (the boundary between our atmosphere and the vacuum of space). One user wrote that the sounds were “HAARP weather control,” positing that the Alaska-based facility was “using sound frequencies to manipulate clouds and weather formations”. Elsewhere, another user cited the Hollow Earth theory, saying: “Hollow Earth Opening Air Exchange Vortex Tubes carry sound long distances.” And others said the eerie noises hailed the launch of “Project Blue Beam” – a theory that’s been knocking round for nearly 30 years and claims that NASA is attempting to implement a New Age religion and start a New World Order. Still, others were quick to offer more prosaic explanations. One suggested the whole thing was fake, and that the clouds themselves were merely the product of a “Snapchat filter”. And another suggested it was just a “broken tornado siren”. And yet, reports of spine-tingling dins ringing down from the heavens are nothing new. Indeed, there’s a whole website dedicated to “strange sounds in the sky”, which catalogues videos of such occurrences from across the world. Strange Unknown Apocalyptic Noises Heard In The Sky - The Hum Phenomenon www.youtube.com And whilst the precise cause of each weird and whacky clamour is almost impossible to identify, NASA has insisted they’re probably all just examples of background noise. The space agency said in a statement back in 2015: “If humans had radio antennas instead of ears, we would hear a remarkable symphony of strange noises coming from our own planet. “They sound like background music from a flamboyant science fiction film, but this is not science fiction. “Earth’s natural radio emissions are real and, although we’re mostly unaware of them, they are around us all the time.” Have your say in our news democracy.

The daughter of The Real Housewives of New York City's Jill Zarin has claimed she had to create her own makeshift window shade as the one on her flight was broken. In TikTok footage that's racked up 4.3 million views, Ally Shapiro recorded herself using the safety pamphlet and tape to block out the light on the alleged "broken window". The on-screen text read: "POV you have to tape your own window shade because Delta decided not to include one on an eight hour flight." She went on to explain that she paid "for an extremely expensive international flight" in which she thought "a window shade would be included." Ally reported that the airline offered her tape and safety books so she could tape it up herself during her flight to Nice. "I used to be a very loyal Delta customer, but this was just insane," she continued. "They made us remove it before landing because management would be upset… shouldn't they be upset for having a broken window and not letting us switch seats?!" Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter The footage was soon flooded with comments from fellow TikTokers, with one writing: "UMMMMMM IM MORTIFIED to fly with the window shade up I woulda cried." Meanwhile, another added: "The way I woulda just stared out the window for 8 hours listening to music." @allyshaps When you pay for an extremely expensive international flight thats 8 hours long you would think a window shade would be included…they offered me tape and safety books (ironically) so i could tape it myself. I used to be a very loyal delta customer, but this was just insane. They made us remove it before landing because management would be upset…shouldnt they be upset for having a broken window and not letting us switch seast?! #delta #deltafail #airplanetiktok @delta In a follow-up clip, Ally claimed the first attendant was "very rude and dismissive," but a "much more friendly" member of staff gave her the materials for her window shield. "As someone that already has so much anxiety when I fly, this was a really sucky situation for me, and I wish they could have handled it better, or at least offered us a different seat, because I could not fly like this," she continued.

A new fitness craze dubbed 'cozy cardio' is taking over TikTok with over a million views under its belt. The term, coined by creator Hope Zuckerbrow, epitomises a more relaxed approach to cardio with toned-down elements such as candles, soft lighting and relaxed outfits such as dressing gowns. Flora Harris, buyer for sportswear at Pour Moi, says: "The ‘hot girl walk’ was a game changer in terms of making walking cool again – but for some people, the thought of having to get changed and go outside is a big turn-off." The wholesome trend focuses on "indoor walking on a walking pad, in the comfort of your favourite loungewear or dressing gown, with a backdrop of candlelight and your favourite comfort TV show." Cozy cardio has since become a phenomenon across the globe, with one saying "This has changed my life." Another fan added: "I just put a walking pad in my room…i get up and do 45 minutes immediately…it’s been working out." Sign up for our free Indy100 weekly newsletter @hope_zuckerbrow take a shot every time I say “cozy cardio” ? #fyp #cardio #cozy #walk #walkingpad #walking #workout Sportswear experts at Pour Moi have pulled together five helpful tips for anyone wanting to give it a go for themselves: Carve out some time in your morning or evening The ideal cozy cardio time is before your day starts, or as your evening is winding down. Zuckerbrow is a fan of a 5 or 6am slot, but other people on TikTok have posted equally cozy examples of them taking on the trend at 8pm. What’s great about those times is that it’s likely a little darker outside so you can make your indoor space extra cosy with drawn curtains and candlelight. You don’t need to have a walking pad Although many of the videos on TikTok show people using a walking pad or treadmill, you can do some cozy cardio with any type of exercise. The key is to make sure it’s not too high intensity so that you can maintain your cosy vibes. A static bike or stepper machine would work well, or you can do it without any equipment and just do steps on the spot. Comfort is king, but remember a sports bra Although one of the main selling points of this trend is the fact you don’t need to be dressed up in the latest athleisure looks (yes you can work out in a dressing gown!), it’s important to pop on a sports bra – even if you are just doing low intensity walking. This doesn’t mean wearing something super tight and uncomfortable, but picking a low intensity bra or crop top that keeps your boobs supported whilst you enjoy your cosy workout. Keep hydrated and set the mood safely Cozy cardio is that relaxed that you might forget you are working out – but a 20 or 30 minute session can burn around 100 calories! It’s important to remember to drink water throughout, so make sure you have a bottle handy or take a break to rehydrate. Although many of the cozy cardio videos feature a yummy iced coffee, it’s water that is key when working out. Candlelight can bring peak cosy elements, but consider using battery-operated candles for safety reasons - they still look super pretty. Have your say in our news democracy.
