A dad\u2019s playful attempt to strike soda-brand gold is bubbling up on TikTok after his daughter shared a video of him trying to come up with his own commercial jingle \u2014 all because he was inspired by another creator\u2019s overnight success.<\/p>\n
TikTok user @kiaeliz__ posted the clip<\/a> with the text overlay, \u201cMy dad is jealous of the girl who made the Dr. Pepper jingle and her overnight wealth so he\u2019s in here trying to make his own for Coca-Cola.\u201d In the caption, she added a string of laughing emojis before writing, \u201cCoca-Cola let\u2019s give my dad a deal. He\u2019s so committed.\u201d<\/p>\n The video, which has since received over 22.7 million views and 3.5 million likes, shows her father enthusiastically workshopping lyrics and melodies, clearly leaning into the joke while still taking the task seriously.<\/p>\n The moment comes on the heels of the viral success of TikTok creator Romeo, whose homemade Dr Pepper tune exploded online and eventually caught the attention of the soda company itself.<\/p>\n Her original video racked up over 113 million views, and the brand later featured her jingle in a national commercial, turning what began as a casual post into a career-defining moment.<\/p>\n That trajectory is exactly what made @kiaeliz__\u2019s dad want to try his own hand at musical branding \u2014 albeit with a humorous twist. Rather than a polished performance, the charm of the clip lies in his visible excitement and determination, paired with his daughter\u2019s amused narration.<\/p>\n Never miss a story \u2014 sign up for PEOPLE’s free daily newsletter<\/a> to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer\u200b\u200b, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.<\/strong><\/p>\n After the video began circulating widely, @kiaeliz__ shared a brief update with PEOPLE about her father\u2019s reaction to the attention. \u201cHe\u2019s been so happy! A great experience and no not yet!\u201d she said when asked how he\u2019s feeling about the viral moment and whether he has heard from Coca-Cola.<\/p>\n While there\u2019s no official brand partnership at the moment, viewers have continued tagging the beverage giant in hopes the wholesome clip might catch the company\u2019s eye. He\u2019s even gone to extra lengths by creating a jingle for Popeye\u2019s<\/a>, gaining a comment from the company\u2019s TikTok stating, \u201cyou know what… \ud83d\udc40\u201d<\/p>\n Read the original article on People<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
