# Karaoke Battle Proposals This Carpool Karaoke-Inspired Proposal is a Dating App Success Story By Alyson Wyers | Published 2018-02-01 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dating-app-success References: [youtu.be](https://youtu.be/kUcDYi45u2k) This dating app success story recently let to a surprise carpool karaoke proposal. In a proposal video posted to [YouTube](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/date-planning-app) by Tyler Stafford, he and his girlfriend EB revisit a carpool karaoke battle video concept they originally uploaded a couple years ago. This combines the popular Late Late Show segment with James Corden with the lip sync battle that began on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and turned into its own TV show as well. However, after a spirited rendition of Natalie Portman's bleep-filled rap from SNL, it became clear that the singing video was actually documenting the couple getting engaged. Highlights include family members being flown in to sing backup vocals and a re-enactment from friends. Given that Tyler and EB met on Bumble, this dating app success will likely inspire others leading up to Valentine's Day. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.1/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 19% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Weddings](https://www.trendhunter.com/weddings) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Carpool Karaoke Proposals:** The trend of using carpool karaoke as a creative and memorable way to propose to a partner. - **Dating App Success Stories:** The trend of couples meeting and forming long-lasting relationships through dating apps, leading to unique and romantic experiences. - **Viral Proposal Videos:** The trend of sharing proposal videos on social media platforms, creating a sense of excitement and inspiration for others. ### Who This Affects Most - **Entertainment:** The entertainment industry can capitalize on the popularity of carpool karaoke proposals by incorporating similar concepts into TV shows, movies, or online platforms. - **Technology:** The dating app industry can take advantage of the success of couples like Tyler and EB by promoting their platforms as a means to find love and create memorable experiences. - **Wedding and Event Planning:** The wedding and event planning industry can offer services to create unique and personalized proposal experiences, tapping into the trend of elaborate and viral proposals. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dating-App Holiday Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bumbles-holiday-campaign.md) - [Dating App Wedding Capsules](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bumble-wedding-collection.md) - [Comedy-Inspired Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bantr.md) - [Video-Enabled Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/candid-dating-app.md) - [Date Planning Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/date-planning-app.md) - [Real-Time Video Matching](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/call-me-maybe.md) - [Rom-Com Dating App Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinder-it-starts-with-a-swipe.md) - [Reality-Themed Dating Campaigns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tinder-5.md) - [Engagement Ring Claw Games](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/engagement-moment.md)
