This is what epic looks like. Ellen DeGeneres got Bradley Cooper to take a selfie stuffed with stars at the Oscars on March 2.
Best Supporting Actor Jared Leto had his game face on. Jennifer Lawrence, Meryl Streep and Julia Roberts wore ear-splitting grins. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie smiled politely at the back. And Kevin Spacey, Channing Tatum and Best Supporting Actress Lupita Nyong'o were all but obscured.
"You get in here, too, Julia. Lean in," Ellen said to Julia Roberts. "Channing (Tatum), if you can get in also. Bradley (Cooper), come in," the host quipped to loud laughter.
Eventually the group grew big enough that Cooper kneeled in front of DeGeneres and snapped the pic with her smartphone. "If only Bradley's arm was longer. Best photo ever," DeGeneres posted along with the photograph on her Twitter feed, @TheEllenShow, during a break in her hosting duties.
The picture went viral almost immediately. Within five minutes, it had nearly 100,000 retweets and over a million in 40 minutes. It's now the most re-tweeted selfie ever, dislodging the picture of Barack and Michelle Obama from his second inauguration.
