Walker Hayes and his 15-year old daughter created a TikTok sensation with their fun, quirky dance to his song “Fancy Like,” which is off his new EP Country Stuff.
Hayes credits COVID for the success of ‘Fancy Like’. “This year was an odd one and I think like everybody, we all tried some new things just to kill some time,” he tells Billboard. “TikTok for me, honestly, it’s just a bonding mechanism for me and my daughter and we dove in heavy over COVID.”
Walker Hayes made a smart move when he name-checked Applebee’s in ‘Fancy Like’ and now it looks like the song is bringing back the Oreo Shake!
“I do believe, I don’t want to get anybody’s hopes up if this isn’t true, but I believe the Oreo Shake will be coming back to the menu, which is pretty tight.”
As a kid growing up Walker has fond memories of going to Applebee’s with his dad. “I ate so many Bourbon Street Steaks and Oreo Shakes, it’s ridiculous. It’s a fond memory and [I’m] grateful they like the song.”
