The Me 2Too challenge takes under a minute and needs nothing but your phone. You name something you used to do, say what changed, tag two people, and pair your video with the song.
Here’s the exact structure, word-for-word scripts you can steal, simple filming and caption tips, and the mistakes that make a testimony video land flat.
The Me 2Too Testimony: Four Steps
The challenge is built around the song “Me 2 Too” by Las Vegas artist Michael Franklin. It runs on a single mechanic: instead of judging somebody’s past, you admit you shared it, then show what changed.
Step 1: Name the Old Pattern
Open with the thing itself. Not a windup, not a disclaimer. The pattern.
Then the anchor line: “Me too. But that’s no longer me.”
Examples that work:
- “I used to talk about people the second they left the room. Me too. But that’s no longer me.”
- “I held a grudge against my brother for six years. Me too. But that’s no longer me.”
- “I chased money like it was going to fix something. Me too. But that’s no longer me.”
Step 2: Name the Change
Say what you actually did, or what you’re still in the middle of doing. Specific beats inspirational every single time.
“I got better” is forgettable. “I called him on a Tuesday and it was the worst twenty minutes of my year” is not.
You do not have to be finished. “I’m three months into this and it’s still hard” is one of the most useful things you can say.
Step 3: Tag Two People
Close on camera with: “Me too. Now you two.”
Then tag both names in the caption. This is the step people skip, and it’s the step that makes the challenge move.
A post without tags is a billboard. A post with two tags is an invitation, and invitations get answered.
Step 4: Duet or Stitch the Song
Pair your video with the official “Me 2 Too” audio. On TikTok, duet or stitch a video that uses it. On Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, use the audio in your own video.

Copy-Paste Me 2Too Challenge Scripts
Fill in the brackets and say it out loud once. Then put the script down and say it your own way.
The 30-Second Version
“[Old pattern]. Me too. But that’s no longer me.
Here’s what changed it: [one specific thing you did].
It’s still not easy. But I’m not who I was.
Me too. Now you two — [Name], [Name].”
The 15-Second Version
“I used to [old pattern]. Me too. But that’s no longer me.
[One sentence on the change.]
Now you two — [Name], [Name].”
The “Still Working On It” Version
“I’m not going to pretend I’ve beaten this. I still [old pattern] more than I want to.
But I’m [specific thing you’re doing about it], and that’s further than last year.
Me too. Now you two — [Name], [Name].”
What Makes a Testimony Land
- Lead with the flaw, not the lesson. Your opening line decides whether anyone watches the rest. “I used to…” is a hook. “I want to talk about growth” is a scroll.
- Be specific. One real detail outperforms five general ones.
- Don’t perform. Shaky phone footage in a car beats a ring light and a script read.
- Keep it under 60 seconds. The whole format is built for a single scroll-stop.
- Tag people who’ll actually answer. Two people who will post beats ten who won’t.
How to Film Your Me 2Too Challenge Video on a Phone
You don’t need gear. You need light on your face, a voice people can hear, and a phone that stays put.
None of this is about looking polished. It’s about making sure people can see you and hear you.
Get the Light Right
- Face a window. Soft daylight on your face is the easiest good light you’ll find.
- Keep bright light behind the phone, not behind you. A bright window at your back turns your face into a dark shape.
- Don’t rely on a ceiling light. Light from straight above can leave shadows under your eyes. Put a lamp in front of you, a little to one side.
- Filming in the car? Park in the shade and face the windshield so the light lands on your face.
Make Sure People Can Hear You
- Stay close. Hold the phone at arm’s length or closer, so your voice is the loudest thing it picks up.
- Cut the noise. Turn off the TV, the fan, the music and the car engine.
- Get out of the wind. Outside, wind can bury your words. Find a sheltered spot or go inside.
Frame the Shot
- Hold the phone upright. Film vertical so your video fills the screen.
- Wipe the lens. A fingerprint or pocket lint makes video look foggy.
- Prop it at eye level if you can. A stack of books, a shelf or a dash mount works. Eye level feels like a conversation.
- Look at the lens, not the screen. That’s what reads as eye contact to the person watching.
Keep the Takes Loose
- Know your first line cold. Say it out loud a few times before you hit record. The rest can stay loose.
- Leave a beat at both ends. Wait a second before you start and after you finish, so you have room to trim.
- Do two or three takes, then stop. Pick the one that sounds most like you, not the smoothest one.
Captions and Posting Tips
Your written caption does two jobs. It gives people the hook before they press play, and it carries the tags.
Copy-Paste Caption
I used to [old pattern]. Me too. But that’s no longer me.

On-Screen Captions
- Add captions. Use the app’s caption tool if it has one, or type your key lines on screen.
- Proofread them. Auto-captions can get names and slang wrong. Fix them before you post.
- Keep text off your face. Place it where it won’t cover you or sit under the app’s buttons.
Where to Post
- TikTok: duet or stitch a video that uses the official audio.
- Instagram Reels: use the audio, and tag both people in the caption and the first comment.
- YouTube Shorts: put “Me 2Too Challenge” in the title, not just the hashtags.
- Facebook: share it where your friends, family and Las Vegas community groups will see it.
After You Post
- Text the two people you tagged. A tag is easy to miss. “I tagged you. Your turn.” is hard to ignore.
- Answer your comments. When someone writes “me too,” write back.
Mistakes That Make a Me 2Too Video Fall Flat
- Don’t open with a windup. “Hey guys, so I’ve been thinking…” loses people before you reach the point. Start with the pattern.
- Don’t stay vague. “I got better” tells nobody anything. Name one thing you did.
- Don’t name other people’s sins. This is about your own past behavior, not somebody else’s. Naming another person turns a testimony into an accusation.
- Don’t share anything that isn’t yours to share. If your story involves someone else’s private life, tell your half.
- Don’t confuse it with #MeToo. Always write it with the numeral 2. #MeToo is for survivors of sexual violence. It’s a different movement doing a different job.
- Don’t over-edit. Captions and the song are enough. Transitions and effects make it look like an ad.
- Don’t let bad light or noise bury it. If people can’t see your face or hear your words, the story never reaches them.
Me 2Too Challenge FAQ
Aim for 15 to 60 seconds. The format is built for a single scroll-stop, and a short video is easier to watch all the way through. If you’re nervous, start with the 15-second script: one line about the old pattern, one line about the change, then tag two people.
You don’t need a dramatic story. A grudge you let go of, a way you used to talk about people, or a habit you quit all count. Ordinary changes are the ones other people recognize themselves in. Pick one, say it in a sentence, and name one specific thing you did about it.
No, but it works better if you do. People connect with a face and a voice saying something true. If you’d rather stay off camera, a voice-only video over a black screen or a mirror shot still counts. Either way, follow the same four steps.
No. The song “Me 2 Too” comes from Michael Franklin’s faith, but the challenge is open to anyone willing to be honest about a change. You don’t need to use religious language. Name the old pattern, name what changed, and tag two people in your own words.
No. Me 2Too, written with the numeral, is about naming your own past behavior and how you changed it. #MeToo is a movement for survivors of sexual violence. They are two different movements doing different jobs, so always write Me 2Too with the 2 and use #Me2Too, not #MeToo.
Now You Two
Pick one thing. Say it in a sentence. Name what changed. Tag two people.
