“Oops,” he wrote in the caption.

Lautner’s video was a spin on the viral social media trend where users offer seemingly anonymous advice or notions of self-flattery only to ‘accidentally’ reveal themselves as the creator of the video.

The video was posted to Lautner’s TikTok page, so there was never any mistaking who was behind it.

His video resonated with Twilight fans and, as of Sunday, has drawn over 80 million views.

The five Twilight The movies, based on Stephenie Meyer’s fantasy-romance book series of the same name, were fueled by the love triangle between werewolf Jacob, vampire Edward and human Bella.

At the time the love triangle spurred a heated debate over who the female protagonist should be with and passionate viewers often sorted themselves into Team Edward or Team Jacob.

Ultimately, Bella chose Edward and became a vampire so that their love could live on for eternity.

And in a strange turn of events, Jacob “imprinted” their half-Vampire-half-human baby named Renesmee, meaning he became uncontrollably attached to the baby on sight and was devoted to her for life.

The films were massively popular at the time and drew over $3 billion globally at the box office.
