No, it is not in the early 2000s, but millennials feel they are so back.
As the saying goes, what is old often becomes new again. And millennials, typically defined as individuals born between the early eighties and mid -1990s, are now at a point of their lives where their generational nostalgia is in front and the center.
This recent increase in Pop culture centered on the millennium serves as “the next level of escapism” for the generation, said Kate Kennedy, author of “One in a millennial: on Fathhys, feelings, fangartls and fit.”
“It returns us to a time when our greatest concern was to queue for a CD, not if we could pay a house,” Kennedy said.
In the sphere of Las Vegas, that feeling was renowned for thousands of backstreet buos concert attendees, many with completely white outfit in tribute to the album “Millennium” of the band, singing with successes such as “Drowning”. Those who could not attend saw that the concerts were developed in Tiktok, where some videos have accumulated millions of views.
“This healed more from my childhood in 1.5 hours than any therapist,” wrote a Tiktok user in the title of his program of the program.
“I feel that I only traveled in time,” another creator wrote in the text of his concert video. “In the sphere, listening to Backstreet Boys, with a white attire of the 90s, drinking gelatin shots.”
Kennedy, who went to the Backstreet Boys concert last weekend, described nostalgia as a “connective tissue that makes people feel less alone and less criticism of themselves, because other people also like what they like.”
“I think we are a more lonely and isolated generation as adults than we once anticipated that we would be in our youth,” he said, he added that millennials “two very different epochs extend in terms of technology and information.”
Generations “can be difficult to each other online,” Kennedy said. But now, “after several years of being called Cringe, or” Cheugy “, the millennials bowed.”
The desire of the Millennium era has even crossed generational lines. General Zers, who once made fun of the millenary culture, are now romantizing it. In Tiktok, hundreds of users have recently published tributes to all millenary things, from Tumblr and adjusted jeans to optimistic music, Barack Obama and, perhaps in particular, the HBO television series “Girls”.
Perhaps feeling that enthusiasm, a series of artists from the early 2000s, have returned to the center of attention. Nelly, Creed and The All-American rejects, all the basic foods of the late 90s and first Auges, have launched tours.
Beyoncé brought his Destiny’s Child Michelle Williams and Kelly Rowland bandmates on the stage “Cowboy Carter” in Las Vegas last weekend, marking the first group meeting in seven years.
Hollywood is also jumping to the trend. The studies continue with sequelae, prequels and green light splits based on beloved titles of the 90s and 2000s.
The Tomas of Anne Hathaway, Meryl Streep, Stanley Tucci and Emily Blunt filming the sequel to the success of 2006 “The Devil Wears Prada” in New York City have caused a frenzy. Online fans are analyzing the high fashion aspect of the actors and others are aligning to see glimpse of the stars in person while shooting, according to Variety.
