Open Post: Hosted By Henry Winkler Banning The F-Word From His TikToks

June 27, 2022 / Posted by:

Retro fantasy fuckboy and current darling granddaddy, Henry Winkler, has mastered the art of implying “fuck you” in a very subtle way while still coming off sweet and endearing, like that time he showed up Trump by drinking a glass of water one-handed with ease, or that other time when he seemingly shaded Tom Hanks by saying Hooch was his favorite while briefly working on Turner & Hooch. If you’re an Arthur Fonzarelli fanatic who’s dreamt of watching Henry twerk it in only a leather jacket to Closer by Nine Inch Nails, then you’re out of luck, because he said that he won’t be TikTok dancing to any songs with “fuck” in them.


76-year-old Henry recently told Page Six that his granddaughter convinced him to shake that thing on TikTok. His only rule? No fuck words.

“I am only a TikTok star because my granddaughter India said, ‘Papa, you have to make a video,’” the Barry actor, who has six grandchildren, tells Page Six about his newest job title. One of his other granddaughters, Lulu, was in charge of music selection and that’s where “Papa” put his foot down. “We threw a lot of songs out because I said, ‘I cannot have the word f–k in the music,” he explains. “That’s it, I don’t have a lot of requests but that’s one of them. So we had to go through a lot of songs and then we did it and boom.”

Here’s Henry’s one of his TikToks featuring his grandkids India, Lulu, and Ace dancing to When I Grow Up by The Pussycat Dolls. (Shhh, no one tell Henry the rumors about what the PCDs were a front for):

Here are Henry’s entrancing undulations to Somebody’s Watching Me by Rockwell:

Happy New Year, happy dance!

And here’s a super wholesome and adorable one that features him singing instead of dancing.

I support more of this innocent grandparent content and less Jiggle Jiggle song-type nonsense. I would guess that Henry’s favorite f-word is “Fonzie” rather than “fuck,” because those leather jacket and “aaaaaay!“-ing royalties probably keep him rich as fu…I mean rich as hell. Apologies, Papa, I have no control over my indecency.
