It's Friday, and we still have TikTok - for now. While the app remains on over 100M American phones, celebrities have returned to sharing and creating content. From emotional reactions to the Academy Awards nominations to Will Ferrell's dance moves, here are the 10 best celebrity TikToks of the week.
1. Reese Witherspoon
Reese Witherspoon and Will Ferrell dance to Lola Young's viral track "Messy." The A-Listers have a new film, You're Cordially Invited, out on January 30m and fans can wait. Sofia Richie was in the comments of the epic video writing, "Life. Made."
2. Cynthia Erivo
Cynthia Erivo shares her emotional reaction after finding out that she has been nominated for her second Oscar for playing Elphaba in "Wicked." It's a chance for the artist to become an Emmy, Grammy, Oscar and Tony (EGOT) winner, which would make her the youngest to ever do it.
@cynthiaerivo Moments like this don’t come along very often, and when they do, it is sacrilege to let them pass by without a moment of gratitude. I am grateful, grateful to @The Academy, grateful to be a part of something that makes people feel seen, grateful to be a cog in the wheel of a piece that makes us believe in magic, grateful to have experienced a dream come true, and deeply deeply grateful for this unbelievable recognition. I often get asked what I would say to my younger self. Well today there’s nothing to be said. She is smiling, beaming, glowing from ear to ear. That speaks volumes. To my sister, @arianagrande, what a joy it is to be here with you watching as you ascend and amaze and become the actress you were meant to be. Congratulations first time nominee, I’m so so proud of you!! There is no one in the world I would have wanted to do this with more than you. Thank you Jon M. Chu, our fearless leader whose kindness provided us with the room to play, you are deserving of all good things and I’m lucky to call you my brother. Marc, Winnie, Stephen, @Universal Pictures fam, @Wicked Movie fam!!! LETS GO!!! 💚🧹
