He’s got the moves.
With all the chaos going on in the world, sometimes all it takes is a funny, wholesome video to bring people together.
A young Asian boy is going viral for busting a move to a Pitbull song — and the internet can’t get enough of him.
X (formerly Twitter) user @itsme_urstruly shared the adorable video with the caption, “This is absolutely how everyone should feel music.”
The tweet has almost 14 million views, with many people agreeing with the X user’s sentiment.
“Wow, love this vibe!” one person wrote.
“He’s got the vibes of a drunk salaryman [white collar worker] at karaoke at 4am, the expressions are on point,” hilariously read another tweet in response.
“Love this kid!” read another tweet.
“Me in the club this weekend, 4 shots in,” joked another tweeter.
Another X user shared the video writing, “The Chinese are closing the gap on Rizzler technology… it’s never been more over.”
If you’re confused about what the term “Rizzler” means — it’s the nickname of a young New Jersey social media personality, Christian Joseph.
Since 2023, Joseph has created a name for himself by creating humorous videos and by making the “Rizz Face” — an expression where the 9-year-old squints his eyes, while stroking his chin. People say the Rizzler has an old-school Italian man trapped inside his body.
Some defensive X users didn’t think the dancing kid even came close to the OG Rizzler.
“Not even close. One of Rizzler’s defining traits is that he has the old soul of a 60-year-old Italian American construction worker from the Bronx with COPD trapped in a boy’s body but also retains youthful wonder and whimsy. This kid is just a kid — he could be anyone.”
“No. They can never be him,” someone else quipped.
Yet, someone else agreed deeming this dancing kid the Chinese rizzler jokingly writing, “I have a team of 20 people searching RedNote for the Chinese Rizzler.”
While others were more neutral: “Every country has a regional Rizzler for sure.
RedNote is a Chinese social media app. It gained popularity in the US when people were fearful of the potential ban of TikTok in the US.
