“When I posted it, she said, ‘Mom, I cannot believe you did that,’ and I was like, ‘Alaynna.’ It just shows you have a lot of confidence. I’m just showing, you know, other children that you have confidence and it’s OK to have confidence,” Durham said.

The viral push reached another level when Project Pat reposted the footage on his own platforms, which helped spread it even further, with users from all over praising Alaynna’s confidence.

“I was just watching a movie and my friend Bella. She called me and said, ‘You know, you’re viral?’ And I’m like, ‘No, I’m not,’ and she said, ‘Go check your mom’s TikTok.’ I said ok, and I went to check it. I’m like, how did I get to this?” Alaynna recalled.

The video first appeared online during the weekend of July 2025 and has continued to trend across various platforms.
