Amid much fanfare, Drake’s In My Feelings music video was finally released on Thursday. And people who watched all the way up to the credits saw a familiar-looking Filipino YouTuber doing her own version of the #InMyFeelingsChallenge.

YouTuber Niana Guerrero — the Pinoy girl who performed the challenge with a marching band — was spotted in Drake’s now-viral music video, which has been viewed over 38 million times. She shares screen time with American actress Liza Koshy, with both ladies appearing at the video’s 7:41 mark.

As of this writing, Guerrero’s #InMyFeelingsChallenge vid has been viewed more than 3.5million times on YouTube. Meanwhile, on Facebook, it has been shared more than 634,000 times.

Guerrero posted a reaction video on her page along with her brother Ranz Kyle Ongsee when they saw her appear in the music video. They were pretty ecstatic of course, and they were joined in on the fun by their dad, who came into the room to celebrate with them.

“We made it to Drake #inmyfeelings music video, fam! This is what happened when we watched it,” she wrote.

Netizens congratulated Niana for the accomplishment:

Clarence Petisme wrote: “CONGRATULATIONS Kuya (big brother) Ranz and Niana! You guys deserve it! We will always support you both until the end!”

Chelsea Milan urged them to keep up the good work.

Ciril Vida Alarcio Diesmos tagged a friend and said: “[I] was so happyy for herrrrrrrr”

One pointed out how “handsome” the dad is.

Last year, Guerrero went viral on social media for a video which shows her dancing each time she hears Luis Fonsi’s Despacito. She is seen dancing in places like the supermarket and even after eating noodles in a ramen restaurant.

The video on Facebook has over 89 million views, while it has over 24 million views on her YouTube channel.

Other stars featured in Drake’s music video were DJ Khaled, Dua Lipa, BTS member J-Hope, Steve Aoki, Ryan Seacrest, Stranger Things’ Millie Bobby Brown and Noah Schnapp, Will Smith, and Shiggy aka the creator of the #InMyFeelingsChallenge.
