Video taking off 6.2x its usual first day

Haley Kalil's 'favorite time of the day,' and a comment section asking about a wedding

The short keeps its title vague, but the people writing under it read it as a couple's moment and have one question ready.

Why this story? The video opened at a pace of 551,040 views a day, 6.2 times a normal first day on this channel (88,780).

My favorite time of the dayMy favorite time of the day

Haley Kalil kept the title of her newest short almost secret: "My favorite time of the day," and nothing more. The viewers filled in the rest. Most of the comments read the clip as time spent with someone she is close to, and the question that draws the most replies is a simple one: when is the wedding?

The short had passed 400,000 views after about 14 hours, on a channel where a new short usually ends its whole first day under 90,000. It also drew likes at roughly twice her usual first-day pace. The comment section stayed about its normal size, though, and much of it is warm wishes. The rest is about the final shot, where several people point at where a hand ends up.

It was one of five uploads in two days from the former Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model, whose about text opens with "Sup bruh." The others run from a Victoria's Secret teaser to a gym joke to a longer reply to a man named Pete. In that one, Haley defends women who build big audiences with get-ready-with-me videos, and the description points out that men who post similar content do not get called out for it. The quietest title of the batch is the one that went furthest.
