American Idol alum, Jax, may not have won her season but she has definitely found a career and fanbase outside of the show.

Her song Victoria's Secret was released earlier this month and found an instant market on TikTok where users have embraced the sound and message.


The body positive anthem confronts commercialized beauty standards and they they they prey on insecurities and perceived imperfections. Lyrics lament all of the truths Jax wishes someone would have told her about herself, her body, and beauty.

She straight up calls out what Victoria's real secret is, singing:

"I know Victoria's secret"
"And girl, you wouldn't believe"
"She's an old man who lives in Ohio"
"Making money off of girls like me"
"Cashing in on body issues"
"Selling skin and bones with big boobs"
"I know Victoria's secret"
"She was made up by a dude"

The song doesn't have an official music video yet, but it does have this:

The clip shows Jax leading a flash mob through a performance routine of her song. To drive her point home, she staged that performance on the sidewalk in front of a Victoria's Secret store.

Jax says the manager was less than thrilled about the PR ment.

TikTok, on the other hand, was as thrilled as thrilled could be!
