# No Scrubs AI FAQ

### What is the No Scrubs AI trend?

It is the October 2026 TikTok trend of remaking TLC's 1999 "No Scrubs" music video with AI: the same silver set, elevator, finger wag and fisheye shots, cut for cut, with three new people in place of the singers. It took off on October 17 with a version starring three streamers.

### How do I make a No Scrubs AI video?

Upload your photo for the middle spot and up to two friends, or one group photo, and tap the button. You see a picture of the three of you in the video first; say yes and we make a free 4-second preview. If you like it, unlock the full 15-second video and download it. There is no prompt to write.

### What app are people using for the No Scrubs AI trend?

Most people use a photo-to-video AI tool or a CapCut template. No Scrubs AI is made for this one video: one to three photos, or one group photo, in your browser with no app to install, and a free preview first.

### Does it follow the music video shot for shot?

Yes. Your video has the same 15 seconds as the clip everyone copies: the TLC letters, the elevator, the finger wag, the close-up, the group dance, the squat and the overhead shot, in the same order and cut on the same beats.

### Do I need three photos?

No. One photo is enough: you take the middle and the solo shots, and our two dancers, the friends beside you in our example video, take the left and right. With two photos only the empty spot gets a dancer. A group photo can fill all three spots at once.

### Who gets which shot?

The middle photo gets the solo shots: in front of the letters, the elevator, the close-up and the overhead shot. The left photo wags the finger at the camera, the right photo does the squat, and all three dance together.

### Can I use a group photo?

Yes. Upload one photo with up to three people and each lands in the spot they stand in, left to right; swap places with one tap. More people in the photo? Pick who to use.

### Does the video include the No Scrubs song?

Yes. Full videos come with the song lined up the way the music video uses it, and you can also download a silent MP4. To use TikTok's own sound instead, post the silent one, add "No Scrubs - TLC" and start it at 0:18. The song belongs to TLC and their labels, and we grant no rights to it.

### Is there a free No Scrubs AI generator?

Yes. Every device gets one free preview in Standard (480p). It shows the first 4 seconds with a watermark: you in front of the letters and in the elevator, the finger wag and your close-up. The full video adds the group dance, the squat and the overhead shot.

### Do our clothes change?

No. Everyone keeps their own face, hair and the clothes in their photo. The silver set, the lights and the TLC letters come from the music video.

### What photos work best?

A clear face for each person, facing the camera, evenly lit, from the chest up. A group selfie works when the faces aren't tiny. The middle and the left person each get a close-up, so a sharp face matters more than the background. Avoid sunglasses, masks, heavy filters and tiny faces in wide shots. JPG, PNG or WEBP, up to 25 MB each.

### Why doesn't my video look like me?

Usually it's the photo: a small face, a turned head, sunglasses, a filter or harsh light. Use one sharp, front-facing photo per person, chest up. The free preview shows whether a photo works; the full video is made again from the same photos, so details can differ.

### How long is the video and how fast is it made?

15 seconds, landscape 4:3 like the music video, in HD (720p) or Standard (480p), as an MP4 with no watermark. The free preview takes about 7 minutes and a full video usually takes a few minutes. You can close the page; it waits for you under My videos.

### How much does a No Scrubs AI video cost?

The preview is free. A full video uses 100 credits in HD (720p) or 50 in Standard (480p). That works out to $3.33–$6.99 per HD video depending on the pack. Packs start at $6.99. There is no subscription and credits never expire.

### Do I need a prompt or a CapCut template?

No. We already set up every shot, so there is nothing to write or install. You make the video in your browser, on a phone or a computer.

### Can I put a streamer or a celebrity in it?

No. Photos of celebrities, streamers and other public figures are not allowed. Use photos of yourself and friends who agreed to be in the video.

### What happens if a video fails?

If a video doesn't generate (it stops with an error, not a result you don't like), its credits go back to your balance automatically. If your free preview fails, you can usually make it again.

### How is the video made?

An AI video model makes every frame new from your photos. The shots, camera moves and timing follow the music video; nothing is pasted onto an existing video.

### What happens to our photos?

They are used only to make your video and are deleted automatically, with the videos, after 30 days. Only upload adults who agreed to be in the video.

### Is this affiliated with TLC or TikTok?

No. No Scrubs AI is an independent tool, not affiliated with TLC, their labels, TikTok, CapCut or the people in the original videos.
