In yet another sign that the Running Man Challenge has successfully sprinted to the top of the list of hottest Internet trends, Maryland guards Jaylen Brantley and Jared Nickens visited the Ellen DeGeneres Show Monday to presumably discuss and demonstrate the phenomenon that they’ve become synonymous with.
The program, which is hosted by the eccentric comedian and runs five days a week, has featured iconic guests such as Adele, Rihanna, Kobe Bryant and Leonardo DiCaprio, among many, many others. Those are the names the two Terrapins now find themselves among, thanks to the dancing movement they started with some flawlessly choreographed and wonderfully executed Instagram videos a few weeks ago.
Huge thanks to @TheEllenShow for having my brother @Jaybrant2 and I on your show today. Everyone tune in tomorrow to see us work! ????????????????????????☀️
