What is a Platinum Birthday on TikTok & how do you find yours?
On TikTok, a Platinum Birthday reportedly refers to the day you turn the age that corresponds with the day you were born, but flipped. So, for example, if you were born on the 12th day of the month, your Platinum Birthday would be when you turn 21. Or, if you were born on the 31st day of the month, your Platinum Birthday would be when you turn 13.
Your Golden Birthday is when your date of birth coincides with your age. So if you were born on the 12th, your Golden Birthday would be when you turn 12. And if you were born on the 31st, your Golden Birthday would be when you turn 31.
You may also see some people talking about Diamond Birthdays, which is when the last two digits of your birth year match your age. For example, if you were born in 1981, your Diamond Birthday would be when you turn 81.
Users have garnered thousands of views and likes with their videos about their various different birthdays.
