By now everyone has probably seen the Oscar selfie that host Ellen DeGeneres took with a number of a-list celebrities including Jared Leto, Jennifer Lawrence, Lupita Nyong'o, Cate Blanchett, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and much more.

The record-breaking celebrity selfie, as seen below, has broken the record for most retweets, 3 million and counting, causing a brief issue with twitter, reports Deadline Hollywood. During the telecast, Ellen announced: "We just broke Twitter."

"The envelope please ... to @TheEllenShow - this is now the most retweeted tweet with over 1 million RTs. Congrats!" said Twitter when DeGeneres' photo reached the retweeting threshold.

To top it off, everyone in Ellen's live audience got to take home their own Samsung Galaxy Note 3.
