What is the If It's Lovin' That You Want trend?

"If It's Lovin' That You Want" is the second single from Rihanna's first album, Music of the Sun, released on August 16, 2005, and it is not marked explicit. The TikTok trend runs on a 25-second cut of the song posted by the lyric account MELODY MOOD on July 24, 2024, the "tell me your secrets" part of the chorus.

The dance took off in September 2026. Early takes like @quincy5ive (September 1, 4.6 million views) set the steps, then duos and trios carried it: @itsnot_byn's duo on September 27 passed 6.6 million views, aespa's official account used the sound on September 20 (2.1 million), and @onewithnatalia's take on October 9 passed 20 million. By November 4, 2026 the sound was in more than 2.9 million TikTok videos, half of them from the Philippines, after peaking at No. 18 on the worldwide TikTok audio chart.

Most posts are two or three friends side by side, but the steps work solo. The clip on this page is one of the most watched solo versions: @sbhdee_ ("Mamanya Habibi") dancing it alone in an airport hall on October 24, captioned "Digigigi", with more than 2.1 million views. On AI Dance, the template copies her moves onto your own photo: your face, clothes and background stay, and your body follows the dance beat by beat.

The moves

She opens with a hip pop and a little kick, then makes heart hands in front of her chest. On "tell me your secrets" she brings a finger up to her lips, points at the camera and sways with her hands in her pockets. In the second half she puts her hands on her thighs, lifts one knee with her hand on it, kicks a leg out to the side, waves one arm and ends with a shimmy, arms out.

Best photo for If It's Lovin' That You Want

The photo decides most of the result. These tips are for this dance.

Works well

  • Use a full-body photo: the knee lifts and side kicks need the legs in the frame.
  • Stand facing the camera with your arms relaxed at your sides.
  • Light or contrasting clothes keep the hand moves easy to see.
  • Leave a little space on both sides for the kicks.
  • One person per photo. The AI animates the biggest person in the frame.

Gives weak results

  • Group photos, or a second person cut off at the edge
  • Faces turned away, covered or in deep shadow
  • Blurry or very dark photos
  • Heavy filters, stickers or text on the photo

Post it on TikTok, Reels or Shorts

  • Your video comes with the dance's music. To join the trend, use the "If Its Loving That You Want" sound by MELODY MOOD in TikTok and turn the original sound down.
  • Use the tags people search for: #ifitslovinthatyouwant, #rihanna, #dancetrend and #fyp.
  • Most people do it as a duo or trio: make one video for each friend and post them side by side.
  • Keep it short: the trend sound is 25 seconds, and the hook is the first line of the chorus.

Add If It's Lovin' That You Want by Rihanna from the sound library of the app you post to, so your video uses the official track.
