A 21-year-old Florida man became TikTok famous after he decided to dress up as his 41-year-old mom to see if he could pass as her using her ID.
The original video posted by Monique Meza on TikTok shows her son, Jiovanni Herrera, wearing a wig, a maroon hoodie, her Coach bag and earrings while donning a full face of makeup.
Herrera decided to strut his stuff in the video and attempted to go shopping looking like his mother, which Meza confirmed was a complete success.
She wrote on the video: ‘My son seeing if he can pass as me and use my ID. The answer is, he can.’

The mother of four boys told TODAY.com that she and Jiovanni have the ‘same shape face’ and nearly identical noses.
‘Jiovanni said the clerk didn’t even take a second look!’
The clerk wasn’t the only one who couldn’t see the difference. Many viewers were shocked by how similar the mother-son looked.
One viewer posted: ‘I was waiting for you son to come into the frame first’ while another wrote: ‘OMG he can be your twin.’
Herrera bought another wig and dressed the same as Meza to visit a steakhouse with Meza’s boyfriend in Orlando
Some even suggested they need a whole series of Herrera imitating his mom and others said that they want to see if Herrera can unlock his mom’s phone through Face ID.
Many complimented his walk and the way he carried the purse. One user wrote: ‘The way he walks!’ while another said: ‘the purse strap got me.’
The original video has nearly 3million likes on TikTok and its success prompted the mother-son duo to take their act to the next level.
Herrera bought another wig and dressed the same as Meza to visit a steakhouse with Meza’s boyfriend in Orlando.
Meza is seen ordering a sangria and telling the waiter that she needed to run out to her car to get her ID. Herrera then returns as her in full disguise and takes his mom’s place at the table to continue the order.
The waiter seemed a bit confused and began to laugh nervously but served the sangria and took orders as Meza’s boyfriend and he continued on with the bit calling each other babe and trying to act normal.
After a while, Meza reappears — clearly reassuring the confused waiter who seemed relieved to see mother and boy sitting next to one other.
