Hop Hop Hop Trend With Your Boyfriend or Bestie

The hop hop hop trend with your boyfriend or best friend is the trend at its best: one of you pulls the strings, the other hops like a puppet, then you swap and settle the score. This guide covers doing the hop hop hop trend as a couple or with your bestie: who should be the puppet master first, the photos that work, ideas for long-distance duos, and captions that land. You can film it for real, or make it from two photos with Hop Hop Hop AI.

Why the hop hop hop trend works for couples and besties

The hop hop hop trend is built on a power swap. In the first half, one person controls the other; in the second half, the puppet gets revenge. That's exactly the dynamic every couple and every pair of best friends jokes about: who's really in charge.

Who's the puppet master first?

The first puppet master sets up the joke; the second gets the revenge. A few ways to cast your hop hop hop trend:

• The one who's always in charge goes first, so the swap lands harder.
• The one who planned this goes first, and gets humbled in the second half.
• Couples: whoever lost the last argument pulls the strings first.
• Besties: the one who's always late is the puppet first.

In Hop Hop Hop AI you choose this when you add your photos: the first photo is the first puppet master.
