Ellen DeGeneres’ iconic Oscar selfie starring Hollywood A-list stars turns 10. Has the image aged well?

The famous Oscar selfie that Ellen Degeneres took while hosting the Oscars in 2014 just turned 10. The iconic selfie featured a bevvy of AList Hollywood stars and was then posted by Degeneres on X (then still known as Twitter) and broke records for being the most reposted post ever on the micro-blogging site.

But over the last 10 years, the iconic selfie has not aged that well with many celebrities who featured in the photo fading from the public eye due to some sort of controversy.

It was later speculated that the selfie- which appeared to be one greatest impromptu action played out on live television- was a planned one. Turns out Samsung had initiated it to market its new recently launched mobile phone,. a fact that the company denied later. But rumours around the genius marketing gimmick never died.

In the middle of hosting the Oscar Awards 2014, Degeneres went into the audience and asked some of the stars occupying the front rows to come in the frame for a selfie.
