The Jensen Huang No Scrubs AI trend is a 23-second, AI-made parody music video in which a grey-haired lead who looks like NVIDIA's Jensen Huang dances to the chorus of TLC's No Scrubs with two backup dancers in a white chrome studio. It is not real footage of Jensen Huang, he did not make or endorse it, and it is not connected to NVIDIA, TLC or their label. What people actually want from it is the format: a three-person late-1990s music video with a close-up for everyone. Oakgen's Jensen Huang No Scrubs template makes that format with your photo in the lead.
Make your own No Scrubs parody
Three photos: you in the lead, two friends as the dancers. Same moves, same cuts, the No Scrubs chorus kept.
Two trends in one clip
This clip sits where two waves of AI video meet.
The No Scrubs AI trend. Since October 2026, AI templates and tutorials have recast the No Scrubs music video with new faces: a white spaceship-style set, close-ups sung straight into the lens and three people dancing in a row. Search terms you will see for it include "No Scrubs AI trend", "No Scrubs AI dance" and "TLC No Scrubs AI video". The No Scrubs AI trend page covers that background.
The Jensen Huang AI parodies. In November 2026, AI-made parody clips with a Jensen Huang look-alike spread widely, many of them music videos and dance clips. The wider wave is covered in the Jensen Huang AI trend guide. This guide is about the video format.
The No Scrubs clip takes the first format and puts a lead from the second in the middle.
What happens in the clip
The lead's chrome shaft shot from the AI parody reference clip, not an Oakgen output and not real footage of Jensen Huang.
The edit has 18 shots in 23 seconds:
- The lead's close-up, singing the opening line to the camera and pointing at the lens.
- Trio dances, wide and from near the floor, with the camera tilting.
- The lead alone inside a chrome shaft, filmed from above, arms pressed against both walls. This is the shot people screenshot.
- More trio dances, then a close-up for each backup dancer, one sweeping a hand across the lens.
- The lead in a taller tunnel, a wide crouch, then dancing out of a chrome doorway and a final shouting crouch in front of the set.
Behind the dancers is a giant chrome sculpture that spells the band's name in the reference. Oakgen's preview does not show it, and the template asks for it as plain chrome shapes with no readable letters.
Why it works as a joke
Three things carry it, and none needs an explanation:
- The casting gag. A tech-keynote look in a black leather jacket doing a late-1990s girl-group routine is funny on mute.
- The close-ups. Everyone gets a moment straight into the lens, which is what makes it fun to recast with friends.
- A song people know. No Scrubs was a US number one in 1999, so most viewers recognise the chorus in a second.
The same three things are why the format still works when the lead is you instead of a look-alike.
What is real and what is not
| Claim | True? |
|---|---|
| Jensen Huang danced in this video | No. It is AI-made. |
| NVIDIA or Jensen Huang made or endorsed it | No. |
| TLC or their label made or endorsed it | No. It is a parody of the style of their video. |
| The song is No Scrubs by TLC | Yes, the chorus. |
| Oakgen's template makes a video of Jensen Huang | No. It makes a video of the people in your photos. |
That last row matters. The template replaces all three reference performers, which is why every place needs a photo, and your video keeps none of their faces, hair or outfits. The lead becomes whoever is in your Lead photo.
How to make your own
Short version: one head-and-shoulders photo each for the Lead, the Left dancer and the Right dancer, then pick a quality and review the quote. Everyone keeps their own face, hair and outfit, and the No Scrubs chorus is put back on the finished video. The full walkthrough, with what to check in the close-ups and the tunnel shots, is How to make the Jensen Huang AI No Scrubs video.
What I would do: put yourself in the lead, give the Left dancer slot to the friend who will ham up two close-ups, and test at 720p before the final.
Posting it responsibly
- Use only photos of people who agreed to appear. Never upload photos of Jensen Huang, other executives or celebrities.
- Turn on the AI-generated label and say it is a parody.
- The soundtrack is a commercial recording, so platform music rules apply.
- Do not caption it in a way that suggests a real person did or said something.
More Jensen Huang AI templates
The same wave produced other formats Oakgen has templates for: the Jensen Huang Car Dance, the Jensen Huang Missed Train Dance and the Jensen Huang Aircraft Carrier Dance. Each one puts your photo in the moves, never his likeness.
