About

"Are You Emo?" Bully TikToks refers to a series of TikTok videos by user @liiias._ which gained notoriety for being an accurate representation of the type of mean behavior one might experience in middle and high school. Though several of the videos grew popular, Giordano's "Are You Emo?" video helped her gain notoriety and was in itself parodied on the platform and elsewhere.

Origin

On April 22nd, 2019, Giordano posted her "Are You Emo?" TikTok, acting like a teenager asking someone if they were emo and depressed because they wear all black. The video gained over 56,000 likes (shown below).
