On Jan. 14, TikTok user @yoelise uploaded a video showing off an unedited photo of herself posing in an open doorway, followed by an edited version of the image that turned her body into a silhouette with a red background. The video amassed more than 1.8 million views in less than a month, and she has since shared step-by-step tutorials on how to accomplish the edit.
How do you add the red filter on the #SilhouetteChallenge?

For the second half of the clips, many users rely on Snapchat’s “Vin Rouge” filter for the red light effect. Open the application on your device, and click on the magnifying glass icon on the top left corner. Type “Vin Rouge” in the search bar and it should appear. Snapchat has a hands-free option that allows users to record a video without the need for assistance. Hold down the record button at the bottom of the screen and press the lock button on the left to record. Then save that video, strike a pose, crop it, upload it to TikTok and combine it with the first part. Use the different effects available on TikTok to create a smooth transition.
Experts are warning women of a potential danger behind the challenge

What began as a trend for women to celebrate and show off their curves quickly turned sour when Twitter users started sharing ways to remove the red filter from the videos, exposing the women’s naked—or partially nude—bodies. Tutorials began popping up on YouTube, Twitter, and Reddit, which provided instructions on how to counteract the filter to reveal more than the video creator meant to show. Changing the lighting and filter displays the original image, and the woman’s nude body obscured by the filter was now visible. While that’s a blatant violation of privacy and consent, a quick search on Twitter will offer plenty of tweets of people, mostly men, asking for help in how to get rid of the effect. One user, in particular, was called out for editing videos from multiple women without their permission. “Fyi, report and block @Brezzlova,” one person tweeted. “This is one of the people editing and posting women’s silhouette challenge videos without the filter. Just scrolling down his media tab, he’s done this to over 10 women so far.”

Professional photographers and videographers are taking to TikTok and social media to warn women by explaining how easy it is to remove the filter. They suggest that they can wear a bikini or other clothing that covers up their most private areas if they do decide to participate. While those PSAs are appreciated, it is unfortunate that they even have to be shared. There is plenty of access to X-Rated content on the Internet from people who are willingly and consensually sharing it. So there is no real reason to violate someone who didn’t intend for anyone to see them naked.
If you remove the red filter off of someone's silhouette challenge you're automatically a sex offender. That's fucking weird and gross idc

Celebrities have been quick to jump on the bandwagon

Like most TikTok challenges, the #SilhouetteChallenge caught the attention of the rich and famous as well. While it started with regular people showing off their figures, Lala Anthony, Tiffany Haddish, Cardi B, Lizzo, Doja Cat, Teyana Taylor, and more shared their versions of the challenge. Some put their spin on it, like Haddish, who had a guest appearance by boyfriend Common—and things got a bit steamy. Cardi shared hers and added her twist by showing off her incredible pole dancing skills. Check out some of the most popular #SilhouetteChallenge videos below for inspiration.
For the past few weeks, a trend called the #silhouettechallenge has been going viral on TikTok. To a remix of Paul Anka’s “Put Your Head on My Shoulder,” participants in the trend (mostly, but not all, women) stand in front of the camera fully clothed, then stand in their doorway in silhouette with a red filter, dancing provocatively and showing off their bodies.
The trend was intended to be a sexy, body-positive challenge, but it was hijacked by individuals who used software to remove the red filter from the videos to reveal women’s bodies in full, whether they’re clothed, partially clothed, or nude. And although a subreddit featuring these edited TikToks has been banned by Reddit, there are still dozens of videos on YouTube instructing people how to edit the videos. Some of them have hundreds of thousands of views and at least six of them feature ads, indicating that they are monetized, per a review shared with Rolling Stone by Media Matters. The most popular of the videos has more than 233,000 views and they tend to be uploaded by tech product review and hack channels.

People are apparently searching for the term so frequently that “how to remove red light in silhouette challenge” shows up in the auto-complete underneath terms like “how to paint house exterior” and “how to remove squirrels in your attic.”
In a statement, a spokesperson for Google, which owns YouTube, tells Rolling Stone, “TikTok videos that contain nudity can not be re-uploaded to YouTube, as they violate our adult content policies. Additionally, we will remove content uploaded to YouTube that has been altered to reveal participant’s bodies in a way that was not intended by the original uploader.” The spokesperson also said that any videos featuring highly sexualized themes would be demonetized.
As the tutorials have spread, many creators have taken to TikTok to warn women against participating in the challenge, or urging them to pay special attention to what they’re wearing if they choose to participate. “Be cognizant of what you’re wearing before editing the final product because anyone can take those images and easily revert them back to the original,” one TikTok user warned in a video that has more than 778,000 views.
On social media, some people have adopted the victim-blaming reasoning that if an individual is featured in a video dancing nude or partially clothed — even if they edited it so as not to expose their bodies — they do not have a reasonable expectation to privacy if someone else takes the initiative to remove the filter and repost the images (including as part of a YouTube tutorial). But Danielle Citron, a professor of law at Boston University Law School, disagrees. She says that participants in the #SilhouetteChallenge who have been violated in such a fashion could have legal recourse under the public disclosure of private fact tort, which addresses publication of an individual’s private information that “is not of legitimate concern to the public.”
Because the manipulated images are made public on the internet and aren’t considered newsworthy, they arguably constitute an invasion of privacy, “in the sense that the person had a reasonable expectation that the photo would show her partially dressed, not undressed,” Citron tells Rolling Stone. “We have a reasonable expectation that photos we post won’t be undressed and images and identities used to strip us…..when I go out with a short skirt, is that permission to look up my skirt with a drone?”
On YouTube, the tutorial videos do appear to violate the platform’s community guidelines against sexual content, particularly content that depicts “non-consensual sex acts or unwanted sexualization.”
In a statement, Google, which owns YouTube, tells Rolling Stone, “TikTok videos that contain nudity can not be re-uploaded to YouTube, as they violate our adult content policies. Additionally, we will remove content uploaded to YouTube that has been altered to reveal participant’s bodies in a way that was not intended by the original uploader.”
