Nano Banana Trend: 5 Viral Prompts You Can Try in Google Gemini App

Google’s Gemini app has taken the internet by storm with its Nano Banana AI image editing tool. Launched just last month, the feature has already fueled over 200 million image creations, with the app crossing 10 million downloads within days.

According to Google VP Josh Woodward, Nano Banana’s speed and accuracy give it a strong edge over competitors like ChatGPT and MidJourney, making it one of the most exciting AI tools available today. Users worldwide are experimenting with creative prompts, leading to viral trends across social media.

Here are five of the most popular Nano Banana prompts you can try right now:

1. Turn Yourself Into an Action Figure

One of the most viral prompts lets users become a toy collectible figurine. The AI generates a boxed action figure version of you, complete with packaging, bold graphics, and a toy-like design while keeping your likeness intact.

Example Prompt:

"Take this photo of me and turn me into a collectible figurine inside a toy box. The box should include a clear plastic window, bold graphics, and my name on the packaging. Style the figurine in a fun, toy-like way but keep my likeness recognizable."

2. See Yourself in a Different Decade

Nano Banana can take you from the roaring '20s flapper era all the way to the 1990s sitcom bang, with accurate costumes, hairstyles, and backdrops.

Example Prompt (1980s):

"Make me into a 1980s character: bright clothes, big hair and an arcade at the background. Should appear like a genuine portrait from that decade, with accurate fashion and colors."

3. Appear in a Famous TV Show

Ever dreamed of joining your favorite sitcom? Gemini allows your presence in iconic shows such as Seinfeld, sitting together with Jerry, Elaine, George, and Kramer in that amazingly beautiful New York apartment.

Example Prompt (Seinfeld):

"Create a realistic image of me sitting with Jerry, Elaine, George, and Kramer in Jerry’s apartment from the TV show Seinfeld. Place me on the couch, laughing with the group, in the show’s 1990s style."

4. Step Into Classic Artwork

From Van Gogh’s Starry Night to Da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, Nano Banana can put you right inside famous masterpieces, painted in alternate styles with which the artist painted.

Example Prompt (Van Gogh):

"Place me inside Vincent van Gogh’s Starry Night. Paint me in the same swirling brushstroke style, standing under the starry sky so I blend naturally into the scene."

5. Visit Landmarks Worldwide

Why book a flight when AI can take you anywhere? Users are generating lifelike images of themselves at the Eiffel Tower, Taj Mahal, or even perched on the Hollywood Sign, complete with realistic lighting and shadows.

Example Prompt (Hollywood Sign):

"Take this photo of me and put me sitting on top of the Hollywood Sign, waving at the city below. Make it look realistic, with accurate lighting, shadows, and perspective."

Bottom Line

The Nano Banana trend highlights how AI is reshaping online creativity. With just a simple photo and prompt, you can transform yourself into a toy, a TV star, or even a work of art — all in seconds.
