About
Savanna Shea's "I Saw This Cute Guy at the Grocery Store" Video or the Savanna Shea Stalker Video is a likely satirical viral video in which TikToker Savanna Shea (@savannaxshea) tells a story about seeing a cute guy at a grocery store, learning his name from his credit card while at the checkout, then stalking him and his mother online to get a date with him. The video was uploaded in March 2024 and went viral, becoming the subject of reposts criticizing her for her stalker-ish attitude and discussing a perceived double standard, where if a man told the same story he'd be chastised. The video also inspired a series of duets in which TikTokers play the tune of "Every Breath You Take" by The Police, a song about a possessive lover, as she tells her story.
