In today’s fast-paced world, it’s no shocker that TikTok continues to unleash a never-ending stream of captivating trends and filters within the vast realm of social media. With everything from fun and quirky filters to the most dangerous trends, TikTok serves up a medley of videos from users representing every corner of existence. And as expected, even the beloved characters of the most popular video games seize their well-deserved slice of stardom on TikTok.
Quite recently, a viral filter took the internet by storm, featuring none other than the beloved Princess Peach. However, to everyone’s surprise, this particular filter gained notoriety for all the wrong reasons. As the trend gained momentum, curious eyes hoping to try it were met with absolutely nothing. If you’re one of the many curious souls hoping to find out what happened to this peculiar filter, just keep on reading.
What was the fav Princess Peach filter and why did it disappear?
If you’ve been looking to try out the filter that has been all over TikTok, I have some bad news for you. The fav Princess Peach filter has indeed been banned. The reason behind it? As TikToker James Doyle put it, after choosing your favorite Princess Peach a couple of times, there was “not a lot of Princess, but a bit too much Peach.” To put it in other words, the “peach” became too strong to handle on the family-friendly social media platform.
Ultimately, the video made you turn your head to the side, picking your favorite Princess Peach, but there’s a catch. After making your pick, one of the images would turn into an explicit image, shocking users using the seemingly harmless filter. All NSFW content is strictly forbidden on TikTok, so it didn’t take long for the filter to be banned, but thousands of people still tried it and were easily hit with the naughtiest images on the internet.
Despite the filter having been banned, videos of shocked users — which abide by the platform’s rules — are still on TikTok, and for your own pleasure, we’ve compiled a few videos that perfectly showcase everyone’s reactions when faced with a Princess-less Peach.
The filter may be gone, but its legacy will live on.
