Last night’s Oscars ceremony reminded us of Adam Dunn, as you can classify a lot of what happened as a swing and a miss.
I mean, what the hell was this?
But just as Adam Dunn sometimes makes contact and sends a ball deep into the right field bleachers, it’s not like the Oscars ceremony was a total dud, and most of those shining moments came courtesy of Ellen’s comedic genius.
There was the joke congratulating a guy on being the best Liza Minnelli impersonator ever, when it fact it was really Liza Minnelli herself. She had pizza delivered to a section of A-listers including Brad Pitt and Kevin Spacey. And she struck comedy gold by telling Jonah Hill he showed her something in “The Wolf of Wall Street” that she hasn’t seen for a very, very long time. (Hint: She was talking about his penis.)
But it was this epic selfie that still has everybody buzzing today, so much so, that it could wind up being one of the greatest Oscars moments ever:

The picture quickly became the most retweeted tweet of all-time and temporarily crashed the social media giant.
Not crashing Twitter anytime soon? You guessed it: Adele Dazeem. And that’s probably because she doesn’t exist.
