About
Will Smith Looking Around (TikTok) refers to an exploitable meme featuring Hollywood actor Will Smith standing against a white background wearing a multicoloured sweater and red-tinted glasses while looking around frantically. The video originates from Will Smith’s song Pretty Girls, which was released in 2025 to mixed reviews. The memes are typically set to the lyrics “Me and Ashley, late night on the golf course,” from an alternate, unreleased version of SZA’s track “Wavy (Interlude).” The looped GIF went viral in video form on GIFTok in August 2025. The meme is typically used to joke about dodging something or looking around frantically, with jokes about looking at peoples “buns” gaining particular traction online toward the end of August 2025.
