At this point, how many people have never heard the song ‘Baby Shark’?
Even if you don’t have kids, this song has been projected onto every platform of media so often that almost everyone knows at least a few of the lyrics.
The song is famous for being immensely popular with children, often making them dance and smile just from hearing the first few notes of the track. It’s so popular that it actually made it onto the Billboard Hot 100’s Top 40!
No matter if it’s played on a TV commercial, on the radio, or on your streaming device: when your toddler wants to be entertained, it’s difficult to navigate the world without running into ‘Baby Shark.’
And now, the popularity of the song is proving to be more immense than ever, since the internet’s favorite current version took place at an adult brunch that featured drag performances!
Two parents decided to bring their two-year-old son along for the event, located at the Talde restaurant in Jersey City, New Jersey. It was supposed to be a fun afternoon out for the parents, but they could have never expected how joyous it would really get!
When Marti Gould Cummings saw that the parents brought a toddler, the drag queen knew exactly what needed to be done to turn this brunch into a family-friendly event! Cummings and the restaurant decided to do a “drag roulette” where the audience selects cover songs for the drag queen to perform.
When the toddler was asked what song he wanted to hear, his answer was obviously ‘Baby Shark.’
So the DJ began to blast the music through the speakers of the restaurant, hyping up the crowd who were clapping along to the music.
The toddler instantly began having the time of his life! Cummings began belting out the song to the toddler, cracking up the crowd and giving the boy a show of a lifetime! When a video of the incident was posted online, it went viral and now has over 740,000 views!
