If you scroll down the list on that link it shows you what specifically started the trend on the web. There’s a basketball players name, a rapper and Minecraft to name a few. I also saw Jake Paul on the list when I changed the timeline on the topic search.
I didn’t see his name on the list. Someone reads his book, tells dumb ass celebrity about it, dumb ass celebrity mentions it on Instagram, google explodes with flat earth searches... herd animal effect
