What is the Chipmunks Dance trend?

The Chipmunks Dance is a three-person TikTok routine named after Alvin, Simon and Theodore, the singing chipmunk brothers. Three friends line up shoulder to shoulder, and each one takes a turn at the front for a few counts of spins, arm swings and hip pops before sliding back into the line.

It runs on a sped-up, chipmunk-pitched version of "You Spin Me Round (Like a Record)", the 1984 Dead or Alive hit. The choreography is usually credited to the ICM Triplets (@icm_triplets), who posted it in April 2024 tagged #thechipmunks and #rightround. In autumn 2026 siblings, roommates and cheer squads brought it back, many in red, blue and green tops.

Chipmunks Dance AI lets your trio join without being in the same place, rehearsing the handoffs or filming twenty takes. Upload three photos and the AI recreates the routine with your faces.

Alvin

Red, photo 1

The loud one who always wants the spotlight. He opens in the middle and gets a second turn.

Simon

Blue, photo 2

The tall, careful planner. He takes the first handoff, the back-to-camera shimmy.

Theodore

Green, photo 3

The sweet one with the biggest smile. His turn is the arm-swinging one, straight at the lens.
