Do You Think I Look Good Mr. Armstrong?

About

Do You Think I Look Good Mr. Armstrong? is a TikTok sound and trend that uses a soundbite from the Family Guy spin-off show The Cleveland Show in which Cleveland Brown's daughter Roberta Tubbs asks her high school teacher Mr. Armstrong if she looks good after preening in her locker's mirror. The soundbite was added to the song "Dream Doll" by Splish Splash feat. CupcakKe in October 2022 via a fancam style edit. This inspired mostly female TikTokers to preen using the sound, showing off their bodies and being flirtatious to the imagined "Mr. Armstrong" who represents their crush.

Origin

On January 10th, 2010, season one, episode 11 of The Cleveland Show, titled "Love Rollercoaster,"^[1] aired on American television. A character named Mr. Armstrong made his first appearance in the episode and he becomes smitten with Roberta Tubbs after she flirted with him in one scene taking place in the school hallway (YouTube upload shown below).

Roberta: I'm sorry. I just need one minute to make sure I look good. Do you think I look good Mr. Armstrong?
