For Halloween, Tariq, otherwise known to the Internet as Corn Kid, dressed up as, you guessed it, CORN! In an adorable TikTok video, Tariq trick-or-treats dressed as his favorite thing at MrBeast's house, who's dressed as his favorite thing - money.
Corn Kid Tariq And MrBeast Meet Again!
The video shows Tariq holding a Halloween pumpkin pail waiting for his treat and MrBeast, whose real name is Jimmy Donalson, holding a handful of corn-on-the-cob. Then the two danced with the corn to Snoop Dogg's "Sensual Seduction."
Fans of the two Internet sensations popped into the comments to leave their thoughts. Sandwich shop Jimmy John's wrote, "icons only." SONIC Drive-In said, "CORN FOR ALL π½β¨" Another follower chimed in with, "You two are so cute. A friendship we didnβt know we needed. β€οΈ" Other followers commented about how adorable their friendship is, how much they liked his costume, and some even left "Corn Song" references.
This isn't the first encounter for the two Internet friends. Tariq showed up to MrBeast Burgers grand opening at American Dream in East Rutherford, New Jersey in September. The corn-loving boy even tried a MrBeast burger and gave his review of new restaurant's food in a TikTok video on MrBeast Burger's page. When asked how the burger tasted, Tariq said, "Super good, juicy, greasy, and delicious, just like corn! 10 out of 10, like really good."
Tariq Has Had An Exciting Few Months Since Going Viral
Tariq went viral after he was interviewed this summer for an episode of "Recess Therapy" about his favorite vegetable. His enthusiastic interview went viral and led him to another interview, a song, an appearance on "The Drew Barrymore Show," a Cameo account, being recognized by "Saturday Night Live," being named the "Corn-Bassador" of South Dakota, and a meeting with MrBeast Burger. His family is keeping his name going strong with various TikTok videos on his official page.
"Tariq Tries" Video Series Has Corn Kid Trying New Foods
He recently started a TikTok video series called, "Tariq Tries" where he tries new foods. In his latest "Tariq Tries" video, the New York City second grader tried dumplings and sushi for the first time. "The dumplings were fine with the soy sauce but the shrimp tempura sushi, the rice tasted really different when I put it in the soy sauce," he said. A recap at the end of the video said, "He likes the dumplings, but not the sushi with soy sauce."
Tariq has also done some fun TikTok videos to be able to keep his fans entertained and in-the-know on what he's up to. He recently jumped on the "Squirrels In My Pants" trend where he shows off his dance moves.
