“Everyone was doing the 'Savage Remix' challenge on Tik-Tok and I was like well I don’t do all these other kinds of dance, I do Irish dance so I want to participate so I’m going to do it the way I know how," Bullock told NBC12. “I heard the 'Savage Remix' and I liked it and I felt like I could maybe make some of those beats with my feet.”

The VCU student's video went viral instantly.

“I didn’t expect it to blow up the way it did, but it’s really cool how far it’s gone and how many people have seen it,” she said. “I can’t even keep track of how many people have shared it.”

One of the millions of people who saw the video was Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar, who invited the dancer to perform in Ireland for St. Patrick’s Day next year.

"Some brilliant moves there," the prime minister wrote on Twitter. "Hope you can dance in Ireland for St Patrick’s Day 2021. We’d love to have you over."
