Have you ever befriended a cop and realized he was actually internet famous? No? Well, here’s hoping one of us will be lucky enough to meet this particular officer who just makes enforcing law and order look so cool.
Officer Nae Nae describes himself as “a police officer who enjoys dancing, making funny videos, and sharing real-life information about being a police officer.”

He definitely knows how to work the internet and keep his audience hooked, seeing as how he has over 16K subscribers on YouTube and more than 40K followers on Instagram.
(We love how, on his Instagram bio, he highlights that all videos uploaded to his social media accounts were made off duty.)

His content is never dull, either. In fact, he always succeeds in his goal to “make people smile, laugh, and re-humanize the badge.”
Officer Nae Nae gamely takes on dance challenges such as the popular #GitUpChallenge. His version, which gained over 32K shares and 19K likes, is still highly watched on Facebook.
Basically, he’s the type who makes sure to give his followers something substantial, entertaining, and funny to enjoy on a regular basis.
A perfect example of just how cool he is as a police officer and content creator is this video wherein he trades the city cop life to experience the wide open spaces of the country as a sheriff.
With “Old Town Road” as his audio backdrop, he gives us a glimpse of what it’s like to keep the peace in a setting new to him.
He’s got the whole look down pat, too: a black, long-sleeved top tucked into a pair of denim jeans, paired with a belt, a badge, and a white, Stetson-inspired hat, finished off with a pair of brown boots.
Comical as he makes this out to be, he actually looks pretty darn sharp in his get-up.
This sheriff sure can ham it up!
On a horse, behind the wheel of a tractor… you name it, he’s got the poses and facial expressions that fit the music and setting perfectly.
Never running out of ideas, his viewers just love all his videos. No doubt his colleagues love being around him! What a character. We honestly can’t help but wonder who gamely tags along to record these moments, too.
The next time you’re tempted to immediately form an impression about police officers and generalize who they are and what they do, remember there are good-natured folks like Officer Nae Nae who end up proving us wrong.
See, law and order doesn’t always have to be followed by apprehension or hold negative connotations. This is the side we really need to see more of.
You’ll surely enjoy a few laughs with this sheriff’s video!
Press play and prepare to be entertained by Officer Nae Nae.
