| ok the lip syncing is terrible but he is giving me Smallville Tom Welling vibes so yeah.. he's ok to look at lol |
Yeah it feels gross. I don’t even know how old he is but I can appreciate a good looking young man. |
He's 21 but still seems like a HS kid (lives at home with his dad, acts and talks like a HS kid, etc.). It's been fun to watch his career take off after he went viral on TT. |
That’s a mild relief. I only feel half as gross. I don’t tick tick so I didn’t know who he was. |
I'm the middle aged woman who feels like Mrs. Robinson and I just choked on water laughing at the "tick tick." From one generation Xer to another...it's Tik Tok. Thank you. My kids would be proud I know this because "tick tick" is so something I would say.

I checked out his channel(?) and lip syncing to 70s/80s is great—feels like a high school crush. Anything more recent makes me think of him as my son—ick. Know your audience young man! |
Haha. We middle-aged moms have all been there.

He’s been featured on TMZ.
https://toofab.com/2021/06/04/tiktok-star-william-white-gen-x-fans/ I had to laugh when I read the title: “Why Over 1 Mill Gen Xers Are Eating Up This TikTok Star’s Videos.” Gen Xers?! Try Boomers! |
Ge Xer here....he is everything that made a heartthrob in the 80s. I am so icked out by how I become a teenage or tween girl watching him and my heart is a flutter. My teenage boy would be horrified and my husband would make fun of me. |
Haha.
Yeah, I’m Gen X too. I think it’s more Gen Xers being reminded of feelings we used to feel. Lots of PPs nailed the nostalgia angle. The 80s songs are what we were listening to when we were young. |
| The Shaun Cassidy nails it. He’s got that chipmunk look everyone had back then with the chipmunk smile. He knows how to maximize it too |
| He nails the cheesiness we grew up with and the wink adds the perfect cheese as well. I think he does something to make the eyes even dreamier. Haircut is so 80s. He takes me back to being a giddy tween and then he has the nerve to do a more recent song and I feel like a dirty old woman. |
YES!!! |
Yes! It’s the cheesiness - his sensibility is so 80s! |
Haha! I’m tick tick mom here! Now tick tock! |
