The Abra Kadabra song on TikTok is a Brazilian funk "som original" whose hook chants "abra kadabra". Its sound page lists a first video on 19 May 2026, and by 18 October 2026 it had 469,000 videos; a second upload of the same hook by the account DUDU MUSIC had 1.3 million. It is not Lady Gaga's 2025 single "Abracadabra", and people who search for the Abra Kadabra Brazilian song often mean this funk hook. The Abra Kadabra dance took off in late August 2026. A group reel on 21 August credited its own steps ("Dc: nosotras"), and duo reels from 26 to 31 August got 3 to 7 million views each. The idea is always the same: one person dances alone, the second walks in on the beat as if by magic, and the two finish in sync. The cleanest take came on 1 September 2026 from Kelly (@kellyisdancing), a 22-year-old dancer in Germany: she dances alone in a black top and white sweatpants, and her "evil twin", Kelly again in the opposite colors, steps in at the 3-second mark. By 17 October it had 3.8 million views and 508,800 likes. In October the Abra Kadabra trend TikTok wave moved to pets, magic-trick edits and AI: on 17 October 2026 an AI video site added a two-photo version where you snap and a friend or a pet appears. ### Abra Kadabra trend timeline - **2026-05-19**: The first video on the TikTok sound page of the Brazilian funk "som original" with the "abra kadabra" hook.

The video prompt: ```text Recreate the reference video [Video 1] shot for shot: the same plain, bright living room: white walls, a light grey ceiling with a small spotlight, a warm brown wooden floor, a black leather sofa at the left edge, a black armchair with a patterned cushion and an open white doorway at the back right, the same fixed phone camera at chest height that shows the dancers from head to toe, the same timing and moves of the two-person funk dance. The ONLY change: the two dancers are now the people in [Image 1] and [Image 2]. Dancer 1 = the person in [Image 1], in EVERY frame: the one who dances alone first on the left and snaps. Copy the exact face from [Image 1]: face shape, eye color and eye shape, eyebrows, nose, mouth, skin tone, age, hair color, hair length and hairstyle, and any beard, moustache, glasses or freckles exactly as in the photo.

Both change: no one from [Video 1] stays, also in the step-in and when a hand covers the mouth. The beats, matching [Video 1] second by second: 0-2.7 s: dancer 1 dances alone on the left, relaxed funk steps, hips swaying, small hand rolls at the waist, eyes on the lens; the right half of the frame is empty. 2.7 s: on the beat, dancer 1 snaps the fingers of one hand at chest height, a quick snap inside the same move. 3.0-3.6 s: dancer 2 steps in fast from the right edge of the frame and lands next to dancer 1, as if by magic. 3.6-8 s: both dance the same routine in sync: arms crossed at the chest, wrist flicks, small shoulder bounces. 8-9.6 s: both cover the mouth with one hand and push the other hand forward. 9.6-11.8 s: both put the hands on the thighs and bounce the knees with a hip sway, eyes on the lens, a small smile. One head per dancer, on their own shoulders. A face never appears on hands, legs or clothes. Exactly two dancers, no one else in the room. No text, no logos on the clothes, no watermark. ``` 2.

Pick a version first: **Friend** and **Pet** take two photos, **Clone** takes one. - **Photo 1 is always you**, the one who dances alone first and snaps. **Photo 2** is who appears: your friend (Friend) or your pet (Pet). - Use a sharp photo with the face turned to the camera, in good light. Head to toe works best: the reel shows both dancers full body. - In Friend and Pet your clothes come from your photos. In Clone you wear the reel's outfits: a black top and white sweatpants, and your twin the opposite colors. - For Pet, show the whole animal with its face clear: one pet, no other animals, no people. - No mask, no sunglasses, no beauty filter, and only one person per photo. - This template is for adults and pets. Use photos of yourself and of an adult who agreed. Never a celebrity, a stranger or a child. ## How many credits does it cost? You pay per video in credits, and the create page shows the exact price on the Generate button before you spend anything. The one-tap price covers the scene photo and the video, charged once. The cheaper models are there if you run the prompts by hand in AI Video. | Video model | Settings | Credits | | --- | --- | --- | | Seedance 2.5 (this template) | 12 s, 720p, copies the trend clip, one tap | 183 | Credits come with a plan; see [pricing](https://www.makeviral.ai/pricing). A failed video gives its credits back. ## What happens in the Abra Kadabra video, second by second? Every version copies Kelly's original reel: 12 seconds, one fixed camera, a plain bright living room. | Time | What happens | Who | |---|---|---| | 0-2.7 s | You dance alone on the left, relaxed funk steps, eyes on the lens. The right half of the frame is empty. | Photo 1 | | 2.7 s | On the beat, you snap your fingers. | Photo 1 | | 3.0-3.6 s | Your friend, your pet or your twin steps in from the right, as if by magic. | Photo 2 | | 3.6-8 s | You both dance the routine in sync: arms crossed at the chest, wrist flicks, shoulder bounces. | Both | | 8-9.6 s | A hand over the mouth, the other hand pushed forward. | Both | | 9.6-12 s | Hands on the thighs, a knee bounce and a hip sway, eyes on the camera. | Both | Seedance 2.5 puts your faces into the reel itself, vertical 9:16 at 720p, and the Abra Kadabra song goes back on after the run. It can take 5 to 15 minutes. Press "Create your own"; the exact price shows on the Generate button before you spend anything. Every run is a new take, so results differ. ## Friend, Pet or Clone: which Abra Kadabra version? **Friend** is the classic Abra Kadabra duo dance: you start alone and your friend appears. Each of you keeps your own face, clothes and gender, so two friends, a couple or siblings who are adults all work. It is the AI way to do the Abra Kadabra trend with a friend who is far away. **Pet** swaps the second dancer for your dog or cat, standing on its hind legs and dancing with you. It is the Abra Kadabra trend dog and Abra Kadabra trend cat version in one: any pet with a clear face works. **Clone** is the Abra Kadabra twin trend from one photo, like Kelly's own reel: your twin in the opposite colors steps in and copies every move. It is also the quickest Abra Kadabra clone trend video, with no second person needed. ## Which sound and hashtags should you post it with? Your clip comes with the reel's own Brazilian funk sound, so it is ready to post. You can turn the song off on the result screen and add the trend sound again in the app when you post. The song belongs to its owners, and MakeViral gives you no rights to it. Check the platform's music rules before you use the clip in an ad or a paid post. **Hashtags:** #abrakadabra (47,943 videos and 485 million views on 17 October 2026, an old tag that mixes in magic tricks) and #abracadabratrend (589 videos) fit the Abra Kadabra TikTok trend; add #duodance for the duo. The same tags work on Instagram Reels. Keep the platform's AI label on. Want more dances for two?

The prompt bans them unless your photo shows them; use a sharp, front-facing photo and run it again. | | The second dancer looks like the woman from the reel | Use a photo with the face big and clear, then run it again. | | The two copies in Clone do not match | Use one clear photo, face to the camera, and run it again. | | Your pet comes out with hands or the wrong markings | Use a whole-body photo of the pet with its face clear, then run it again. | | The snap is missing | The original reel has no snap: the AI adds it, and sometimes it skips it. The friend still appears on the beat. | | You swapped the roles | Photo 1 dances first, photo 2 appears. Swap your photos and run it again. | ## Abra Kadabra trend questions ### What is the Abra Kadabra trend? The Abra Kadabra trend is a TikTok duo dance to a Brazilian funk hook that chants "abra kadabra". One person dances alone, then on the beat a second person appears next to them, and both dance the same routine in sync. It took off in late August 2026; the AI version adds a snap and lets the person who appears be your friend, your pet or a copy of you. ### What is the Abra Kadabra song on TikTok? The Abra Kadabra song is a Brazilian funk "som original" with the chanted hook "abra kadabra". It is the Abra Kadabra trend song, not Lady Gaga's "Abracadabra". A MakeViral clip comes with the same 12 seconds of the reel's sound, and you can turn it off on the result screen. The song belongs to its owners. ### What does the Abra Kadabra Brazilian song say? Most of the clip is a funk beat, and the hook just chants "abra kadabra", the magic word, right where the second dancer appears. People look for an Abra Kadabra Brazilian song translation or the Abra Kadabra funk letra (the lyrics), but the part the trend uses has no real lines to translate: the magic word is the joke. ### Is this the same as the Lady Gaga Abracadabra trend? No. The Abracadabra TikTok trend and the Abracadabra dance trend of 2025 use Lady Gaga's pop single and its music video choreography. The Abra Kadabra trend uses a Brazilian funk hook (an abracadabra funk sound) and a short duo routine where a second dancer appears. You may also see an abracadabra funk remix: check that the beat is funk, not the pop song. ### How do I make the Abra Kadabra AI video? Press "Create your own", pick Friend, Pet or Clone, add your photos (photo 1 is you) and press Generate; the button shows the price first. You get a 12-second Abra Kadabra AI clip with the song, the same Abra Kadabra AI trend the apps now copy, also searched as "abra cadabra AI". It arrives in 5 to 15 minutes. ### Do I need an Abra Kadabra tutorial to learn the dance? No. An Abra Kadabra tutorial or an Abra Kadabra dance tutorial teaches the steps and the timing of the walk-in. Here the AI takes the Abra Kadabra dance TikTok moves from the original reel, so you skip the practice and the second take. ### Is there an Abra Kadabra CapCut template? Yes, people search "abra kadabra CapCut" for edit templates, and many of them are a different glow-up edit with old photos. This page makes the dance itself: the Abra Kadabra AI video comes from your photos, so you need no CapCut edit and no second dancer in the room. ### Can I do the Abra Kadabra snap trend with my dog or cat? Yes. Pick Pet: you dance alone, snap, and your dog or cat steps in on its hind legs and dances with you. The Abra Kadabra snap trend works with any pet with a clear face. Use one whole-body photo of the pet. ### What is the Abra Kadabra twin trend? It is the clone take of the dance: the person who appears is the same dancer in the opposite colors, like Kelly's original reel. Pick Clone and one photo of you is enough for an AI twin video, a quick Abra Kadabra meme for your feed. ### What do people call the trend in Portuguese? In Brazil it is the trend do Abra Kadabra, and the Abra Kadabra dança (the dance) is the same duo routine. You may also see it spelled "abrakadabra trend", "abrakadabra dance" or "abra cadabra trend". ### Can I make an AI duo dance with a friend who is not with me? Yes. Friend is an AI dance video with a friend from two photos: each of you sends a photo, and the AI duo dance puts you both into the reel. Each person keeps their own face, clothes and gender. Use photos of adults who agreed. ### Which AI model makes the video? Seedance 2.5. It copies the original reel second by second and replaces the dancers with the people or the pet in your photos, at 720p, vertical 9:16. If it is busy, a backup model makes the clip from the same reel. You write no prompt: no creator shared one, because the source is a real dance reel, so we wrote one that names every beat and keeps your faces. ### How long is the video and what format is it? 12 seconds, vertical 9:16, 720p, an MP4 with the song and no watermark. ## Other AI video templates and tools - [Closer Dance AI: You and a Friend in the Original Reel](https://www.makeviral.ai/templates/closer-dance-ai-trend): One of you waits on the path and pulls down the sunglasses, the other sprints in, and you both lose it in a fast, comic face-off to Ne-Yo's "Closer".
