About

The TikTok Rizz Party "Carnival" Boys refers to a group of teenage boys at a Sweet 16 party singing and dancing to the song "Carnival" by Kanye West, featuring Rich the Kid and Playboi Carti, with one boy wearing a blue tie leading the group. The viral video spread on TikTok in early 2024 as many people likened it to the TikTok Rizz Party meme, essentially labeling the boys as cringe. Others called it the "Fortnite Rizz Party." As the meme spread, the so-called Blue Tie Kid was later revealed to be 16-year-old Sebastian Sarmiento whose TikTok account was @seby_261. Another kid nicknamed Turkish Quandale Dingle also gained his own memes.
