SURELY you remember the 2009 hit song “TiK ToK” by Kesha.

Indeed — there was once a time when "TiK ToK" was just a song and not an app! It was basically a party anthem that had lots of unforgettable lyrics. Exhibit A:

Well, yesterday Kesha took every millennial back to high school when she uploaded this TikTok video featuring a makeover inspired by the song.

Kesha took inspiration from this viral TikTok album look-alike trend where people are re-creating looks from album covers and hilariously using them in everyday situations. Like this one on working out:

So, when Kesha posted her video, fans had plenty of funny comments about her familiar look.

First, there's the makeup. The edgy smudged eyeliner.

Next, the hair flip. Perfect for those messy, rock star tresses.

And finally, the pose. Staring into the camera, hands open, ready to blow glitter right into your face.

And voilà — the finished product! OK, queen! Identical!

Hey, it may be 2020, and Kesha may no longer style her name with a dollar sign, and she may also be rocking dark hair now, but I've been hit with a wave of nostalgia!!!
