Thalia Singer in NYC: Star Ignored by Photographers at Met Gala, Sparking Meme; What Does it Say?
And another celebrity gets the meme treatment.
At the May 5 Met Gala, Thalia was one of the guests, but of course, she may have gotten lost in the flurry of other celebrities, such as Beyoncé, Anna Wintour and Rihanna.
Supposedly, some photographers ignored the singer at one of fashion's biggest nights. Other photographers also asked the star for her name and how to spell it, noted Terra. Thalia reportedly did not take the lack of attention very well.
The hashtag #MeIgnoranComoAThalia, which translates to "they ignore me like Thalia," started popping up on Twitter in the last few days, accomponied by plenty of shareable memes.
One user shared a picture with two women. The woman on the top square has the word "Me" on it, and there are photographers taking her photo. Thalia is pictured at the bottom, and her caption says "You." It is clear that the photographers behind her are not taking her picture.
At the event, Thalia posed with Rihanna, apicture that users quickly used to make jokes. They said that Rihanna was wondering who she was posing with, and that similarly, Thalia was confused about who she was with. Of course, in the original photo posted by the Thalia, she does call Rihanna by one of her nicknames, Riri.
Another meme decided to use images from Thalia's novela, "Maria La Del Barrio." The four-picture panel starts off with a bathroom selfie, which says "Ready for the red carpet." Then a bouncer asks her, "Can you repeat your name? It's not on the list. Who are you?" The third panel uses from the telenovela and is captioned with "What are you saying? But I'm an international artist." And finally, the fourth panel is Itati Cantoral, who was her biggest enemy saying to get rid of the filth.
Certainly, there are plenty of insensitive memes, but we can't imagine Thalia is too bothered. She is in Paris after all.
