Gen Z is making memes while missiles are flying, WW3 trends

Global crisis? Gen Z's response is worrying about outfit ideas and Kesha remixes. Fears of World War III spiraled across TikTok, Instagram and X this week after Israel's preemptive strike against Iran — sparking a surge in panic posts, jokes about a military draft and doomsday memes. This week alone, 'is the US going to war' searches skyrocketed nearly 5,000%, while searches for the phrase 'World War III' shot up almost 2,000%, according to Google Trends. Advertisement 6 A screenshot of Sydney Sweeney from Euphoria is being reused in World War III posts as panic spreads across TikTok and Instagram. Thebasicbloggerbitch/ Instagram On social media though, the vibe is less 'duck and cover' and more 'get ready with me to be bombed.' One TikTok video with nearly 10 million views shows a fleet of helicopters flying overhead with the caption plastered across the page, 'Wdym WW3 has started,' or 'What do you mean WW3 has started,' as Kesha's 'Blow' blares in the background. Advertisement And the comments are peak Gen Z: 'Is this gonna affect my SHEIN order' and 'I wanted a summer glow up, not a summer blow up.' 6 TikTok's response to global conflict: match a nuclear explosion with a pop hit, slap on a caption and watch the likes pour in. Emilia/TikTok Since the two warring countries began trading deadly missile strikes June 13, TikTok videos tagged 'WW3' have pulled in millions of views, with users stitching together footage from Gaza, Tel Aviv and even Hollywood-produced war scenes — all set to trending sounds and dramatic overly-edited effects. Another viral post showed a compilation of camo-inspired outfits with the caption, 'Outfit ideas for WW3' — reflecting a growing TikTok trend where Gen Z imagines what they'd wear on the front lines. Advertisement The chaos kicked into overdrive after a deceptively named X account, which appeared to be Iranian state media, warned that 'everyone will feel it.' 6 One TikTok post joked about ChatGPT leading troops into battle, and pulled in more than 130,000 likes as draft jokes exploded across the platform. Phill/ TikTok The ominous phrase from @IRIran_Military, which uses the name Daily Iran Military but is not an official account, spread like wildfire. 'Tf did Iran mean by 'EVERYBODY will feel it,'' one TikToker posted, racking up more than 1 million likes before it was taken down. Advertisement And while the memes are absurd, the anxiety behind them is not. 6 From war outfit hauls to camo-inspired accessories, TikTok users are treating WW3 prep like a trend, not a threat. Kylie_sp@m12/ TikTok Reddit threads like 'Is WW3 slowly happening?' and 'Do you think world war 3 is a real possibility?' have been flooded with nervous users in recent days. 'Did WW3 just start' one X user posted on June 12, racking up 21 million views and comments like 'We should all get back with our ex' and 'It's time.' 'Me trying to go about my day like WW3 isn't just around the corner,' read one Instagram post, paired with a crying screenshot of Euphoria's Sydney Sweeney. 6 A fake Iran tweet warning 'Everyone will feel it' racked up over 100m views — and sparked TikTok meltdown for Gen Z. Brayden/TikTok For some, it's déjà vu. A similar panic over fears of World War III struck in 2020 after a US airstrike took out Iranian military commander Qasem Soleimani. Advertisement Still, Gen Z is processing it the only way they know how — by turning global dread into viral content. 6 Gen Z is reacting to back-to-back global crises by flooding TikTok, Instagram and X with viral memes and World War III jokes. Shafeeq/ X 'Watching Gen Z cope with a potential world war (again) with humor, then remembering how memes desensitize us,' one post admitted. Or, as another put it: 'We didn't actually mean 'this summer will be bomb' literally.'

Kesha Gets Wild and NSFW in Outrageous ‘Boy Crazy' Video

Kesha very much brings the name of her single 'Boy Crazy' to life in her new video. On Tuesday, the pop star released the provocative visual for her latest Period track, just weeks before she's set to roll out the album. The Kesha, Brett Loudermilk, and Zain Curtis-directed video captures Kesha at the center of a Last Supper-esque table, surrounded by men of all ages, looks, and vibes. As she belts out the silly lyrics, the singer rides on a man's back, holding a fishing rod with a pink panty dangling from the hook. More from Rolling Stone The Weeknd Is Stuck in Purgatory in 'Baptized in Fear' Video Remy Bond Channels the 'Diamond Sadness' of the Seventies in 'Moviestar' Video St. Vincent Taps Mon Laferte for Spanglish Duet of 'Violent Times' The camera then cuts to Kesha smoking from a long cigarette holder in a classic car, again surrounded by men. In another shot, she stares blankly while a man sticks his booty in her face. 'Gimme, gimme, gimme all the boys/I just need a little love tonight/I can't help it, baby, I'm on fire,' she sings. It all wraps up with an NSFW makeout montage: men kissing each other, getting sprayed with a hose, and posing nude with a pixelation censor. The final shot? A smirking Kesha cradling a man in her arms as she feeds him from her breast. Kesha features several models, pornstars, dancers, and Los Angeles nightlife staples, including Horsegurl3000, Bonavega, Mark Daftari, Brooks Ginnan, D'Mahdnes Lavaughn, and Steffon Palmer. The artist is set to debut her album, Period, on July 4 after dropping singles 'Joyride,' 'Yippe-Ki-Yay' with T-Pain, and 'Delusional.' The LP will be released under Kesha Records, the independent label she launched in 2024 with distribution from Warner Music Group's independent distribution arm ADA Worldwide. 'My name has become synonymous with transparency, integrity, and safety, and I want to ensure that these values are upheld for myself and any future artists signed to my label,' Kesha said last year. 'Music has the power to connect the world, and I aspire for my work to be a beacon of light and goodness. I am excited to take control of my narrative and rewrite my story in the music business.'

Beyoncé pens sweet note to Sir Paul McCartney

Beyoncé closed out her six-show run in London on Monday night with a heartfelt thank you to a music legend. 'Thank you, Sir Paul McCartney, for writing one of the best songs ever made,' she wrote in a caption on Instagram. 'Every time I sing it, I feel so honored.' Beyoncé is referencing his song 'Blackbird,' which she sings on her 2024 album 'Cowboy Carter.' However, she spells it 'Blackbiird.' Mario Lopez weighs in on deportations: 'Immigrants are what makes America beautiful' She called it a full-circle moment as the singer was wearing his daughter Stella McCartney's design while singing the song during the show. The Cécred founder then thanked her fans across the pond. 'Thank you, London, for creating unforgettable memories for me and my family,' Beyoncé said. 'Holla at 'ya when I come on tour again!' The 32-time GRAMMY winner's Cowboy Carter Tour continues to break records, even ones she previously held. Her six shows at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium received over 275,000 fans and 'grossed over £45,000,000 ($61,500,000 USD), making it the most tickets and highest gross for any artist in the stadium's history,' LiveNation explained in a press release. Taylor Swift surprises patients at children's hospital Beyoncé now holds the venue record for most concerts performed by any artist. Her 2025 tour 'surpassed the benchmark she previously set with five sold-out nights during her Renaissance World Tour in 2023, breaking her own all-time record for most performances by any artist at the venue.' The 'Crazy in Love' singer now heads to Paris, where she'll hit the stage of the Stadium in Saint-Denis, France on June 19, 21 and 22. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
