Meaning of 'yellow person' on TikTok as cute trend goes viral
By Emily Bell
A love trend has taken over TikTok where people are revealing their most important people using colors. Here’s the meaning of ‘yellow person’.
It’s actually an old challenge that dates back to 2020 and was popular during lockdown. However, it’s suddenly blown up again more than three years later.
TikTok users are revealing who their purple, red, pink and green people are – but what about yellow? Here’s a definition if you’re confused…
Meaning of ‘yellow person’ on TikTok
Your yellow person is the one who “saved you,” a viral description on the video platform says. “They are your hero, your reason for living.”
“They make you happy beyond words can express. They are your twin flame or your soulmate. Your everything,” it continues.
Yellow is the person who is most important in your life, you couldn’t live without them and they’re like the other half of you.
It’s the individual you “instantly clicked with,” another definition adds. “Talking and being with them brings out the best in you.”
“They’re the most genuine soul you’ve ever met, always there for you when you need them and will never let you think badly about yourself.”
Color trend goes viral on TikTok
The trend sees people on TikTok making a slideshow that reveals who the most significant people in their life are.
First, you write the color, like ‘my blue person’ or ‘my red person’. Then, you add a description of what that means on the second slide.
The final slide is a photo or video of the person, telling the world how important they are to you. Then, you tag them in the caption.
It comes just weeks after TikTok’s ‘100 ways to say I love you’ trend went viral, which was another heartwarming love trend.
People were telling individuals in their lives why they adore them using a list of numbers which link to specific statements.
What about red, blue and purple?
There are loads of different colors in the trend and they’re all people who have made a huge impact on your life in a positive way.
Your pink person is the one who has “seen you at your best and at your worst and hasn’t left your side” through it all.
However, blue is someone who “came into your life when you needed someone the most” and is still a huge part of it.
A purple person is someone you have only just met but you’ve already formed a strong connection with almost instantly.
Anyone can be your color person, including friends, family members or lovers, they must simply fit the description.
