s this the year the "selfie" stole the Oscars?
A self-portrait of host Ellen
DeGeneres and stars including
Meryl Streep, Jennifer Lawrence and
Bradley Cooper taken during Hollywood's annual Academy Awards ceremony on Sunday quickly became the most shared photo ever on
Twitter.
"We got an email from Twitter and we crashed and broke Twitter. We have made history," DeGeneres said shortly after access to the social media site was disrupted due to sharing of her star-studded picture.
Kevin Spacey, Julia Roberts,
Brad Pitt,
Angelina Jolie and new
Oscar winner Lupita Nyong'o, also crowded into the picture, which was snapped by Cooper after DeGeneres mingled with stars seated in the audience.

It's a selfie that shook the world — mostly the tabloid and online world. An animated self-portrait ("selfie" in Internet argot) of US President Barack Obama and British Prime Minister David Cameron taken by Denmark's blonde leader Helle Thorning-Schmidt at Nelson Mandela's memorial service on Tuesday titillated the prissy and the prurient across the world, before the photographer who captured the moment said it was no big deal and trashed modern-day obsession with trivialities.
It all began when within minutes after the Mandela memorial service in South Africa, photos surfaced of a grinning Obama and Cameron on either side of Thorning-Schmidt, as she cheerfully took a self-portrait of the trio. The US president's wife, Michelle Obama, was next to Obama, staring ahead stone-facedly on what many saw as a serious occasion.
