“Most romantic thing I’ve ever seen”: Man writes a viral song begging the internet to hire his wife—and it actually works
A man’s unconventional approach to helping his wife land a job has struck a chord on TikTok. Facing a tough legal job market, creator @empty_heaven turned his lawyer wife’s resume into a catchy song urging employers to “somebody hire my wife.” He listed his wife’s experience and asked prospective employers to drop their contact information in the comments…and it seems to be working! The catchy tune went viral, with over 1.5 million views on TikTok, and according @Empty_Heaven, resume requests are coming through his DMs. @empty_heaven/TikTok The post from Jan. 7, 2026, resonated with people who loved to see a man going above and beyond to support his wife. “The song wrote itself,” @Empty_Heaven wrote in a comment. TikTok users crowded the comments to show support for his wife’s cause. A resume, but make it a love song @Empty_Heaven wrote in the post’s caption, “My lawyer wife is looking for work; I am helping the only way I am qualified to do so. DM for more information, but this is a weirdly informative song.” The lyrics of the song read: Somebody hire my wife.My wife is an attorney.She’s a lot smarter than me. She’s looking for legal work in Chicago or remote. At legal writing, she’s the GOAT. Let me tell you her experience:She’s done appeals, vehicular, animal cruelty, and SVU. I swear to God, if you hire her, she’ll be a great addition to your crew. Somebody hire my wife.She’s worked government and private.She’s got a real great mindset. She’s the f**king light of my life. Maybe I can help this way. Comment your email, and she’ll send you a resume. The music video resume racked up over 7,000 comments praising the creative approach to job hunting. @empty_heaven My lawyer wife is looking for work; I am helping the only way I am qualified to do so. DM for more information, but this is a weirdly informative song. #lawyer #attorney #legalwork #jobsearch #lawyersoftiktok ♬ original sound – Empty_Heaven “This is the most romantic thing I’ve ever seen,” wrote one commenter. @bikbokboy/TikTok “If you not going this hard for your wife then what are you even married for????” wrote another. @mrhappy1006/TikTok “Do you know what this shows? His wife has a strong and positive relationship at home, so you know his wife will be focused on the work and not the drama at home. Just putting that out there for anyone thinking about bringing her on!” @mzmotorboat/TikTok @Empty_Heaven did not immediately reply to the Daily Dot’s request for comment via TikTok.

“Wedding hostage situation”: Southwest passengers forced to attend surprise mid-flight wedding at 30,000 feet
Two lovebirds tied the knot at 30,000 feet on a Southwest flight last weekend, forcing other flyers to attend the surprise wedding. A viral TikTok video shows the bride walking down the narrow aisle before she and her man exchanged vows while blocking the front bathrooms. It was admittedly kind of cute, but some would have rather jumped from the plane than sit through that. Southwest passengers become a captive wedding audience Over the second weekend of January, TikToker @katrinabadowski posted footage of the sky-high ceremony to her account. The video gained over 10.4 million views in less than a week. “That one time I witnessed a wedding on a Southwest flight,” the caption reads. Passengers got to be witnesses whether they liked it or not. While they didn’t have to do anything, they also had to hope nature didn’t call during the vows. “Please remain seated as a courtesy to the bride and groom, and if you do have to use the lavatory, please use the one in the back of the aircraft,” said the flight attendant and/or officiant. The woman who married them made sure to acknowledge the audience, speak of them as though they were all willing participants. “Tina and Roger, today is a day unlike any other,” she said. “Not only are you embarking on an adventure of marriage, but you’re doing it amidst the clouds, surrounded by 136 passengers turned to newfound friends.” After the kiss, Tina tossed the bouquet back down the aisle before they passed around a guestbook. Upon landing, the couple walked down the gate decorated with streamers and hearts to a cheering crowd, then drove off in an airport cart with a “just married” sign affixed to the back. Southwest Airlines has long billed itself as “the love airline,” which is apparently what you do when you can’t call yourself “the good airline.” @katrinabadowski Congratulations Tina and Roger ?? @Southwest Airlines #loveisintheair #wedding ♬ Wedding March – Felix J L Mendelssohn Bartholdy and Helmuth Brandenburg Paging Madison Humphrey If Tina and Roger did this for attention, mission accomplished. Much of it was, however, rather negative. On both TikTok and Reddit, many commenters envisioned themselves as one of those passengers and experienced vicarious horror. @katrinabadowski/TikTok “I’ve never seen a wedding hostage situation,” said TikToker @suzsanlane. “’Thank you all for being here’ as if they had another choice,” @avarmajor pointed out. Now everyone’s just waiting for the Madison Humphrey recreation. @katrinabadowski/TikTok “Madison Humphrey on the phone with southwest trying to book a whole plane and terminal,” joked @bxb.les. Shockingly, Redditors on the inevitable r/TikTokCringe repost were more forgiving. “I’ve got mixed feelings,” wrote u/molehunterz. “On one hand I agree, anything that passes the time because flights bore the hell out of me.” “On the other hand, a wedding where I don’t even know people? Would also bore the hell out of me.” u/good-night_moon via Reddit “I’d 100% take this level of cringe over the unsolicited worship and preaching,” said u/good-night_moon. Some, however, had questions about the extremely unenthusiastic groom. “Dude looks like an undercover air marshal who got in too deep,” u/butt-barnacles observed.
