The internet is a happening place, where content flows like a stream of fresh, moonlit water.
A surprising two-second selfie has taken the internet by storm, becoming one of the most viewed clips on X (formerly Twitter).
The two-second video clip was uploaded by a user with the handle @wordgenerator, who captioned the post, "Makeup ate today," turning the creator into an overnight celebrity.
The two-second viral clip featuring a girl who took a selfie in the back of an auto rickshaw has now been ranked as one of the most watched clips on X.
In just three weeks, since it was first uploaded on November 2, it has so far garnered more than 50 million views, and still counting.
Though the video’s original creator remained largely anonymous, only known by her X handle, the internet wasted no time and nicknamed her “Bandana Girl” and later identified her as Priyanga.
The 'Bandana' girl, who was identified in media reports as Priyanga, later revealed that she never expected the video to go viral, stating, “I was expecting 1,000, like max. It’s out of control now.
She admitted she was unsure about being a content creator, adding, “I do get tired of seeing my face over and over again. I don’t know if I have it in me to create content.”
The video has been absolutely everywhere, almost impossible for anyone scrolling on the social media platform.
