Remember Stephanie from LazyTown? The actress who played her for two years has resurfaced as a TikTok star.

Fans have spotted that Chloe Lang, who played Stephanie for two years on the English-language Icelandic kids’ TV show, has been making TikToks in costume as her former character.

Lang, one of two actresses to don a pink wig and play Stephanie, has been posting TikToks in which she dances to songs that viewers will remember from the show, which ended in 2014.

With over 260,000 followers on the platform, Lang has been sharing dances to old LazyTown songs like Bing Bang (Time to Dance) - sometimes giving them a more modern update.

In one, she dons the pink wig for a TikTok set to Cooking By The Book - which then becomes the viral remix with Lil Jon that was shared on YouTube in 2017.

In another, she addresses the fact she is often asked if she is Stephanie from LazyTown, with the TikTok set to Megan Thee Stallion’s Savage.

Lang’s videos have become hugely popular, with the Savage video being viewed over 17.6 million times.

Viewers took to Twitter to praise Lang’s videos, with one user writing: “If there is something the world needs right now, it's definitely Stephanie from Lazytown making the Lil'John Cake Remix canon. A Number One kinda video.”

Can’t believe this is Stephanie from Lazytown. She did that!” wrote another.

A third wrote: “The ACTUAL actress that played Stephanie in Lazytown did the Cooking By The Book/Lil Jon mashup... think I may have just found the greatest video on the internet.”

Lang was the second actress to play Stephanie, after the original star Julianna Rose Mauriello departed the series.

Lang’s Instagram, which boasts over 65,000 followers, states that she lives in New York City.
