Keli Holiday posted a TikTok clip showing Blue Wiggle and The Tree of Wisdom dancing with Holiday as his song "Ecstasy" plays. The song's chorus includes the lyric "Hey girl, come on dance with me. You and your pocket full of ecstasy," prompting some parents to accuse the clip of promoting drug use. The Wiggles said the content was not created or approved by them, that the music had been added after the fact, and that they do not support or condone drug use.
