Listicle: 10 viral photos and videos that tried to break the Internet

Ellen’s Oscar-winning selfie. In 2014, Ellen DeGeneres gathered many famous faces in the seating area of the Academy Awards for a quick photo. She finally got the most epic group selfie at the moment. Jennifer Lawrence, Julia Roberts, Meryl Streep, DeGeneres, Brad Pitt, Kevin Spacey and Bradley Cooper (who took the photo on DeGeneres’ phone) all in one frame. She posted this photo on Twitter. The internet went crazy, retweeting it more than three million times. Somehow we survived.

The other cover choice features Kardashian taking off her black dress, revealing her very large, very shiny butt.

Kim Kardashian on paper. The fashion and pop culture magazine tried so hard, their winter 2014 cover read “Break the Internet.” Two cover versions have been released. One depicts her in a sparkly black dress, popping Champagne that somehow falls straight into a flute she’s balancing on her butt. The other person forced her to take off the dress mentioned above, revealing her very big, very shiny butt. It went viral on all platforms, was discussed on talk shows, became a meme. Kardashian said her back hurt for a week. It’s not enough. Paper laid off its entire editorial staff earlier this year.

The viral dress from 2015 is blue and black. But doubts still exist.

That two-color dress. When a Scottish man posted a (horribly taken) photo of the sparkly bodycon dress his mother-in-law planned to wear to his wedding in 2015, he wasn’t trying to start a fight. Is it blue black or white yellow? Netizens took sides, they couldn’t believe what their friends were seeing. Science enthusiasts have been working overtime to explain the optical illusion: Apparently, your brain automatically eliminates blue wavelengths if you see white and yellow. The dress is blue and black. But doubts still exist.

No one knows who Sonam Gupta is and who she is unfaithful to.

Sonam Gupta was unfaithful. In 2016, images of 10 rupee notes appeared online with scribbled text in Hindi. No one knows Sonam or the person she was unfaithful to. But the text message quickly became the highlight of a tragic relationship. Jokes were made, memes were shared. Sonam was forgotten until she reappeared in November that year. A pink color $The 2,000 note, introduced after demonetization, bears that infamous inscription. And all hell broke loose.

In the age of Zoom calls, everyone can relate to Robert Kelly’s epic 2017 family photobomb.

Photobomb Korean family. Robert Kelly, a political science professor in South Korea, rose to fame in 2017 on a live BBC show of all places. Midway through the interview, his daughter jumped into his home office, assuming he was video chatting with her grandfather. He remained calm. Then his toddler joins the party. He looked frightened. Seconds later, his confused wife, Jung-a Kim, rushed in to pull the children away and things became even funnier. Who knew this would be the call for remote working in 2023.

This July 2022 cover image has gone viral. Some people even filed an FIR saying it was indecent.

Ranveer Singh for Paper magazine. Another one from Paper vault. Singh was the July 2022 cover star, photographed nude and sending the Brown world crazy. Memes photoshopped him into Michelangelo’s The Creation of Adam. A female lawyer in Mumbai filed an FIR, claiming that the actor had “crossed all boundaries”. Maybe he’s not her type?

This image was widely shared in 2021, even Sanders’ gloves were sold out.

Bernie Sanders is sad. Even as the world celebrated the defeat of Donald Trump in January 2021, someone else almost stole the spotlight at US President Joe Biden’s inauguration. Former presidential candidate Sanders, in the stands, braving the cold in soft, cuddly gloves and a grumpy grandfatherly expression, was the unplanned, uncensored moment that everyone we all need it. Sanders and his gloves have had everything photoshopped. He fits everywhere like a glove.

Clips of Psy with a gangsta look and jumping on his feet like he was riding a horse appeared everywhere in 2012.

Gangnam style. Until July 2012, Gangnam was just a luxury district in Seoul, South Korea. Then local chubby rapper Psy (really a novelty act) made it the title of his song, adding a catchy beat and a dance move so easy to imitate that it was almost exploded after several days. Clips of Psy, looking gangsta in an electric blue tuxedo, dark sunglasses, bouncing on his feet like he was riding a horse, were the haunt of the season. It became the first YouTube video to reach one billion views.

Kokilaben’s petty investigation was turned into a hilarious rap song in 2020.

Who was in the kitchen? A core memory of 2020, even for those trying to forget. Music producer Yashraj Mukhate took a minute-long clip from the Hindi drama, Saath Nibhana Saathiya, and gave it a sick rap beat. It’s the perfect whodunit. Kokilaben angrily questioned his daughter-in-law about the empty pressure cooker on the stove. Gopi bahu confesses that it is cruel Rashi bahu as the rhythm drops. The genius writhes.

This image was created by AI and fooled many people into thinking it featured Pope Francis.

Pope Balenciaga: Was Pope Francis strolling down a sunny street, looking dapper in a white Balenciaga puffer jacket this March? Turns out, those photos on Twitter aren’t actually him but are deepfake photos created by a trippy guy from Chicago. The picture takes no prisoners. Even Chrissy Teigen got fooled. People criticize the Church for its lavish spending. Those who caught him said that toying with His Holiness the Dalai Lama was blasphemous. Either way, he looks pretty cool, right?
