LOS ANGELES – The historic “selfie” twitted by Ellen DeGeneres during The Oscars continues booming. It has been topic of discussion in TV, news and radio shows, an unstoppable party that been the creator of The Simpsons has joined, who used the picture of Bradley Cooper, Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Lawrence and company to create a shot with Homer Simpson in it.
In Groening’s drawing appear the same character of the original picture and the father of Springfield’s famous family being kicked out of the shot by Cooper while he is taking the picture. The selfie reflects the dark humor for which the show is well known. The picture continued to spread through Twitter with the help of re-twitting, which DeGeneres started on Sunday, breaking the record with more than 3 million re-tweets.
Groening has not been the only one to recreate the famous selfie. There is another version done with Lego figurines that has also gone viral and a version that DeGeneres shared with her fans in which children, who are cancer patients, posed like the famous Holliwood stars at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles.
