What is the viral ‘Oh that’s not’ trend on TikTok?

The ‘Oh that’s not’ TikTok trend sees users turn Kelly Osbourne’s controversial comment from 2015 into a new viral meme. Here’s everything to know about it.

TikTok has become a breeding ground for various trends and challenges, with many of them taking over the platform and getting thousands of people to join in.

These range from viral dance challenges, such as the heartfelt ‘I’ll Be Missing You’ craze, to more controversial trends, like the ‘Lala Bop’ fad that was slammed by many TikTokers.

The most recent fad that users are loving is being dubbed as the ‘Oh that’s not’ trend, and it’s based on Kelly Osbourne’s infamous comment on ‘The View’ in 2015. Here’s everything to know about it.

‘Oh that’s not’ TikTok trend explained

During an episode of The View in 2015, Kelly Osbourne made an insensitive remark aimed at critiquing Donald Trump’s racist comments about Mexican immigrants and his plan to build a wall along the U.S.-Mexico border.

“If you kick every Latino out of the country, then who is going to clean your toilet, Donald Trump?” she said. Her comment was immediately met with discomfort from her co-hosts, with one of them interjecting, “Oh, that’s not-.”

Kelly’s remark also sparked backlash online, and she later apologized for her “poor choice of words.” Fast forward eight years, and the clip has resurfaced, giving birth to the ‘Oh that’s not’ trend on TikTok.

The new fad sees users recreate the format of Kelly’s statement to share their hot takes ranging from funny to controversial. One user wrote in their video: “If you kick every they/them out of this country, who is going to be giving you the good book recommendations at Barnes & Noble?”

Another user said: “If you kick every man out of this country, who do you think is gonna make all the bad podcasts, Spotify?”

Since this trend is based on comment that is widely regarded as politically incorrect, these videos often end with someone saying “Oh, that’s not-” in response.

At the time of writing, the “ohthatsnot” hashtag has amassed over 105.2 million views on TikTok, as thousands of people are getting involved in the latest craze.
