Cenat explained rizz on the “No Jumper” podcast as a swagger ví undeniable that, once engaged, it can totally change one’s romantic prospects.

You’re rizzin’ em up.”

To Cenat, “rizz” describes someone’s verbal swagger employed while flirting, and he’d even host live “Rizz Academy” classes on Twitch to lớn spread his rizz-dom with followers. But when “rizz” made its way to lớn TikTok, its definition expanded beyond flirting skills to lớn describe someone’s general magnetism.

Once Cenat’s videos on rizz, which have received millions of views on YouTube, reached users on TikTok, the app’s users took it and ran with it. “Rizz” use reached new heights on TikTok in 2022, with TikTokers determining the rizz of fictional characters and putting a new spin on the word with “unnspoken rizz,” when someone’s charisma is ví palpable that they don’t even have to lớn speak.
