The viral “Dr Pepper Girl,” known on TikTok as @romeosshow, has secured a new partnership with Hyundai, adding yet another major win to a week that completely changed her life. Just days ago, she was a creator with a clever idea. Now, she’s one of the clearest examples of how perfect timing can collide into real opportunity.
@romeosshow first caught the internet’s attention after posting a short video singing a jingle she made up on the spot for Dr Pepper. The tune was simple, catchy, and impossible to forget. “Dr Pepper baby. It’s good and nice. Doo. Doo. Doo.” She later joked that she posted it quickly because she didn’t want the idea to come to someone else in a dream and get stolen.
The video exploded. Within weeks, it racked up more than 42 million views, five million likes, and over 300,000 bookmarks. Brands, fans, and sports teams jumped into the comments. Dr Pepper noticed too. Instead of letting the moment pass, the company leaned in.
A few weeks later, Romeo’s jingle officially debuted as part of a Dr Pepper commercial that aired during the College Football Playoff National Championship game. Hearing her voice during one of the biggest sporting events of the year felt surreal, even for viewers who had followed her journey in real time. The commercial credited her directly, using her original tune and energy without watering it down.
Soon after, Vita Coco partnered with @romeosshow, creating multiple ads built around another original jingle. Then came the news that Hyundai is next. According to Romeo, the car brand plans to create a commercial with her, marking another leap from viral creator to trusted brand collaborator.
In the span of a single week, her following surged past 800,000. When she tagged Dr Pepper and wrote, “Please get back to me with a proposition we can make thousands together.”
The Hyundai deal signals that this isn’t a one-off. It’s a lane.
From a spontaneous TikTok jingle to commercials airing during major national broadcasts, @romeosshow’s moment feels earned. And if this week is any indication, she’s only getting started.
