Quick answer
Starrd's Bby Wow Guy template recreates the viral quinceañera dance meme from one photo: you, a person or a pet, become the guy who dances up to the camera at a quince, takes a bite of a concha, chews while staring straight into the lens, then dances back into the party. It keeps the original's moves, timing and handheld phone camera, set to KAROL G's 'BbY WOW'. Vertical 9:16, about 9 seconds, 100 credits (about $5).

Be the Bby Wow guy. You dance up to the camera at a quinceañera, bite the concha, stare straight down the lens while you chew, then dance back into the party, all to KAROL G's "BbY WOW". One photo, the original's moves and timing, vertical.
Bby Wow Guy
Dance up to the camera at a quince, bite the concha, stare down the lens. One photo, people or pets.
What You Get
- The walk-up. You dance toward the camera through the quince crowd.
- The bite. A big bite of the concha.
- The stare. Chewing, puffed cheeks, eyes locked on the lens.
- The exit. You turn and dance back into the party.
- The song. KAROL G's "BbY WOW", synced to the moves.
- One photo. A person or a pet.
- Vertical 9:16, about 9 seconds.
What the Meme Actually Is
It started as a guest's phone clip at a quinceañera in Múzquiz, Coahuila, Mexico. A staff member at the party, in a black polo, danced up to the camera with a concha (Mexican sweet bread) in hand, bit into it, and held a dead-serious stare while he chewed before dancing back into the crowd. He later posted it himself as "El video original."
In October 2026 it was paired with a sped-up edit of KAROL G's "BbY WOW" and took off again, this time with AI. Everyone wanted to be the guy.
Why it suits AI: the joke is the stare. That stare works best on a face your friends know, and one photo is all it takes.
The Beats
| Moment | What happens |
|---|---|
| The walk-up | You dance toward the camera through the party, past the guests in their quince dresses |
| The bite | You lift the concha and take a bite |
| The stare | You chew, cheeks puffed, staring straight into the lens |
| The exit | You turn and dance back into the crowd as the camera follows |
Pick a photo with your face clear and facing the camera. The stare is a close-up, so that's the moment your face has to hold up.
Pets Welcome
Upload your dog or cat and it does the full routine: the walk-up, the bite and the stare. A dog staring you down mid-chew is its own meme.
Post it with the "BbY WOW" sound so it lands in the trend. Our version already has the song on it.
The Fastest Way
Bby Wow Guy
One photo: you or your pet as the Bby Wow guy at the quince, with the concha and the stare. Set to 'BbY WOW'.
One photo, 100 credits (about $5), no prompt. It keeps the original's moves, timing and phone-camera feel, and adds the song.
Build It Yourself
1. Start from a first frame. Put the person from your photo into the opening shot of the clip: the quince hall, the party lighting, the guests behind.
2. Use the clip as the motion reference. A motion-transfer model swaps you into the real footage and keeps the walk, the bite, the stare and the camera moves as filmed. General video models that only take the clip as a reference tend to drift back to the original dancer's face in the close-up.
3. Lock the face. Pass your photo again as a face reference so the close-up stare stays you.
4. Keep the song on the clip. Leave "BbY WOW" on the source clip, trimmed to just before any end card, so the moves stay on the beat.
@Image1 is the first frame. @Image2 is the face. Recreate @Video1 shot for shot with the person from @Image1 as the dancer: the same walk toward the camera, the same bite of the concha, the same stare into the lens while chewing, the same dance back into the crowd, the same timing and the same handheld camera. Keep the quinceañera hall, the guests and the party lighting. Their face stays exactly @Image2 in every frame, including the close-up. No text, no watermark.
Common Mistakes
A blurry or side-on photo. The stare is a close-up. Use a clear, front-facing photo.
Losing the bread. The concha is the meme. Without the bite it's just a dance clip.
Smiling. The stare is dead serious. That's the whole joke.
Using a clip with a watermark. Most reposts carry another app's logo or an end card. Start from a clean clip, or the logo can come through in the render.
