The Beckham Dance Challenge - Winning! Q: What is the Backdrop Story to this Challenge?
⬇️
Fans circulated the clip of the pair on TikTok with captions like "The Real Power Couple" and "This is my Roman Empire." Others posted videos dancing to the audio from the scene overlaid with their reactions. TikTok user @caitlinann wrote, "I did not know one of my major life goals was to dance to this song in my countryside home with my future husband, but apparently it is now." Another TikTokker, @siennakitchener, said, "Pov: you just watched the Beckham docuseries & this scene has occupied your brain all day."

Admiration for the sweet moment quickly morphed into a challenge for people, most of whom are women, to see if their partners measure up to the football star's fancy footwork. The challenge, aptly called "The Beckham Test," has TikTokkers dance along to "Island in the Streams" and record their partner's reaction. To pass the test, the partner must join in on the dancing.

While the trend is light-hearted, it encourages users to compare their relationships to the curated, public image of the Beckhams and requires TikTokkers to surveil their partners in pursuit of internet clout.
