The NBA Playoffs are going on right now, and since the Los Angeles Lakers are in the mix this year, celebrities have been flocking to Crypto.com Arena to watch LeBron James and company play. Bad Bunny and Kendall Jenner turned up to their May 12 contest against the Golden State Warriors, and while there, they pair inadvertently became a meme.

An image of the two has been making the rounds since then, a TV screenshot that shows Bad Bunny talking into Jenner’s ear while she sports an expression of confusion or disinterest. People immediately picked up on the fact that the image bears a strong resemblance to the 2011 “Bro Explaining” meme and its derivatives, like the Milk Edinburgh club photo, “John Silver Explaining to Anna Jay,” and “Girl Explaining.” In all of them, the idea is that it’s a photo of two people, one seemingly giving a passionate explanation about something while the other appears uninterested.

So yes, memes were made.

Merriam-Webster (the folks behind the dictionary) had a good showing here, coming through with, “‘IRREGARDLESS’ HAS BEEN AROUND SINCE 1795. ITS INCLUSION IN THE DICTIONARY IS NOT A SIGN OF THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE FALLING TO PIECES, OR PROOF OF THE EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM FAILING, NOR IS IT THE WORK OF CURSED MILLENNIALS. IT JUST MEANS A LOT OF PEOPLE USE IT TO MEAN ‘REGARDLESS.’

Check out some more examples below.

Drake Memes: The Best “Drake The Type” By Far

by

Drake fans have long celebrated the award-winning artist as he has spent the last decade or so dropping hit after hit. He has also proven himself to be a double threat making a splash on screen with roles in the Degrassi Jr. High revival: Degrassi: The Next Generation. But anyone who has spent time online since around 2014 knows Drake’s fame has expanded beyond his musical and acting roles…he has also become the star of some of the best memes floating on the internet to date.

The Drake memes have become an internet favorite, a meme mainstay. What inspired these internet sensations or where the Drake memes originated is unclear. However, these hilarious memes began popping up nearly a decade ago. Since then, they have become a significant part of the meme culture.

Drake The Type of Fella…

One of our favorite meme trends featuring Drizzy is the famous “Drake the type of fella” trend. This is one of the most popular Drake memes to date. Of course you know these memes, which feature a variety of instances in which “Drake is the type of guy” that goes super sensitive in various hilarious instances. This trend is even making a comeback on Twitter.

Fans are having a blast with this resurgence of the meme theme. It seems as if there is no shortage of quips depicting the singer as the “type of fella who…” In fact, meme creators are coming up with some even funnier “Drake the type of fella” jokes years after the trend first hit the internet.

Angel and Devil

The singer’s thoughtful black-and-white pic is the perfect image for this popular series of Drake memes. The idea reflects that Drake is the “type of guy to talk to an angel and devil on his shoulder when contemplating something.” Of course, during his career, Drake has provided fans and meme lovers with plenty of images for these memes. The black and white pic is undoubtedly a favorite, but other poses also get plenty of use in the meme game.

No More Mr. Nice Guy

Another “softer” image of the singer in which he is sporting a buzzcut with a heart shaved out of the front hilariously reveals that Drake “the type of dude to say “no more mister nice guy” when he’s angry.” Of course, since these popular memes have been a big part of pop culture for nearly a decade, they have changed over time. This is especially true as the artist has continued growing in popularity. One of the most popular Drake memes shares side-by-side images of the artist depicting how much the singer has changed over the years.

Certified Lover Boy Gives Us Another Moment

In 2021, the famous artist sparked yet another generation of viral memes after posting a mirror selfie on his Instagram story as his album Certified Lover Boy was set to drop. Naturally, fans found this Drake post hilarious and went to work developing new memes that played right into it. The Insta photo features the singer posing in front of a mirror posing with his hand over his mouth. In the post, Drake is donning an oversized jumper. Some fans even compared the pic with singer Ariana Grande.

The One That Started It All

Then there is the meme that started it all in 2014 or 2015. You know, the one…the meme derived from a still taken from Drake’s wildly popular “Hotline Bling” video. In the video, he shows off several dance moves, an impressive skill we’ve grown to love about the famous performer. The video features Drake making a gesture – for just a split-second – where he is holding up his hand with a disgusted look to show disapproval, followed by a moment where the hip-hop hitmaker is smiling, nodding in approval.

It is the combination of these two images that made meme history. There are dozens of other funny Drake meme moments, and we’re sure many more will come. Drake and his impact on the industry have created a fantastic legacy. These mems only add comedy to his lasting influence.

Chris Brown Calls Himself A “Rizz God”

by

One of the Internet’s new favorite words these days is “rizz,” although it’s probably already old to some people at this point. Regardless, it means “charisma” in the basic sense, and it’s a meme these days because… it’s a funny word, how could it not be? Regardless, Chris Brown recently posted a video on Instagram labeling himself a “Rizz God,” whatever that means. Of course, the singer’s recent investigations, resurfaced allegations, and online reckoning contradict any shred of charisma. However, as he continues to tour around the world and find fans at every turn, his statement is unfortunately undeniable.

Furthermore, the R&B star’s been in the middle of a lot of backlash and controversy these past few weeks. It all started, seemingly, when Chlöe announced a collab with him. After fans responded with Brown’s history of abuse and violence, he went on various rants and beefed with everyone from Kiely Williams to a gaggle of white celebrities that he posted online. In fact, things seem to balance out between an accusation or attack at him, and waves of defensive fans online. Despite the negativity and adoration, Brown seems to sit comfortably in the middle, letting it all phase by. This newest video, for example, is really just him having fun and nothing more.

Chris Brown Is Starting To Feel Like A “Rizz God”

For those of you unfamiliar, the video references some TikTok audios and challenges that “show you how to flirt.” Hence, the “Look At Me Now” star’s exaggerated facial expressions and overacting come off quite comical. However, nothing could’ve really predicted that Chris Brown would one day call himself a “Rizz God,” even though that’s exactly what he would do. While it’s often funny to see celebrities tap into viral trends or lingo, the polarizing conversation around him makes it tough to fully enjoy.

Still, he’ll continue his Europe tour dates throughout March, where fans can see the “rizz” for themselves. As an excellent overall performer, it should be a treat for his fans. However, it seems like more and more people are getting tired of his antics, so time will tell how his career legacy evolves. With that in mind, stick around on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Chris Brown.

Ben Affleck & Jennifer Lopez Were Aware Of Grammys Memes Circulating During Show, Seat Filler Claims

by

As with any award show, the 2023 Grammys brought about plenty of hilarious celebrity moments earlier this week. Of course, the building was primarily filled by some of the biggest names in music across every genre. However, a certain actor in the building managed to keep the internet laughing thanks to his incredibly bored-looking expressions caught on camera all night long.

Though she didn’t receive any nominations herself, Jennifer Lopez was in attendance on Sunday (February 5) night. Her duty for the evening was to hand out one of the first prizes – for Best Pop Vocal Album. It ultimately went to AOTY Grammy winner, Harry Styles. At the ceremony, her husband, Ben Affleck, came through as her date. It didn’t take Twitter long to begin making memes about the Gone Girl actor’s lack of enthusiasm about being at the award show.

Many users think that the father of three and his wife were feuding. Others say he was upset with having to join her for a “work thing,” even if that “thing” was the Grammys. According to a TikToker who was filling a seat beside the couple, however, they were actually having a great time. Additionally, she says that Affleck knew about the memes as the show was unfolding in real-time.

“J.Lo showed Ben Affleck the phone and was like, ‘Oh my god, honey, look at this meme circulating about you,’” user @almostannna revealed in a recent video. “He was like, ‘Oh god this again.’” Over the years, the 50-year-old has previously become an internet joke on various occasions, namely while carrying Dunkin Donuts or smoking cigarettes.

“He knew during the performance that he was a meme. Like he knew, and he also chose just not to change his expression. I love how unbothered that is,” the TikToker joked with viewers. Later in the video, she confirmed that there was no obvious tension between the pair. Rather, she says they were “super lovey-dovey,” and held hands most of the time.

Affleck’s face was the centre of attention for much of the evening. Still, he and Lopez did leave before the Grammys concluded. At the time of their departure, he reportedly lifted the skirt of her dress a bit too high. As a result, she warned him by yelling out, “Honey!”

@almostannna

In other award show news, last month we wrote that J. Lo was originally going to join Madonna and Britney Spears onstage for their historic smooch in 2003. Unfortunately, the multi-talent was in Canada filming a movie at the time and couldn’t attend the MTV VMAs. Thankfully, another starlet of the time was up to the task.

“Dirrty” songstress Christina Aguilera was recruited to be Lopez’s replacement, though she’s since been vocal about feeling left out of the salacious scandal. At the time, the cameras cut away from her kiss with the Queen of Pop to catch Justin Timberlake’s reaction to his ex locking lips with her on live TV. Read everything Aguilera had to say about the situation here, and check back later for more pop culture news updates.

Joe Budden Becomes Viral Meme With Outfit Twirl

by

Joe Budden is going viral for a clip taken from a “behind-the-scenes” look at The Joe Budden Podcast. In a skit for the video, he plays into jokes about his history of polarizing fashion choices by showing off his new “drip.” The outfit is comprised of denim overalls with no shirt underneath as well as a bucket hat. Showing off the look, Budden comes twirling into a room filled with the rest of the cast for his podcast.

“What do you guys think?” he asks while everyone looks at the show’s host in shock. After a pause, he reiterates, “I said what do you guys think?” Ice eventually responds, “That’s that drip,” while the rest of the crowd begins acting supportive. “See, everyone loves it, buddy!” he adds.

The Viral Clip

Fans had plenty of responses to Budden’s video. One wrote: “@JoeBudden doing this was not on my 2023 bingo card but it’s for sure how I’m entering every room now.” Another complimented the bold outfit choice: “I think he might be on to something bringing back the shirtless overalls.” Other fans referenced Budden’s falling out with Rory and Mal, wondering what they think of the clip.

The clip isn’t the first time Joe Budden has made headlines this week. Back on Monday, Budden got into an exchange of words on Twitter with Mouse Jones. “NORE & How Budden are two of the dumbest n*ggas on God’s green earth,” Jones wrote. Budden fired back: “That’s hate. And you don’t fight well enough for this.” From there, he added: “I have the video of you and some other loser attempting to fight over a girl. Literally the worst fight ever recorded. Pls don’t make me monetize off you. Stay blessed.” Afterward, Jones took the war of words to the next level: “Josephy, you’re 50yrs old & have never won a fight. We can ask @Union_N_Jackson to discuss when he f*cked you up. Stop playing with me. You only win fights with women. The internet flunkies are fooled, thats it. You talkin to me. Literally, all your greatest hits are women.”

Arian Foster’s Sarcastic NFL Script Joke Leads To Hilarious Memes

by

Arian Foster is someone who enjoyed a fairly successful career in the NFL. Overall, he was fantastic at what he did and was a huge star in the city of Houston. These days, however, he is mostly known for his work in the podcast domain. He has worked with a plethora of stars in the podcast world, and he is definitely an entertaining person to listen to. Consequently, Foster has been a guest on various shows, including Barstool’s “Macrodosing.”

During this appearance, Foster was hit with the allegation that the NFL is rigged and scripted. Of course, this is a notion that has been espoused for years, however, mainly as a joke. In the clip below, Foster decided to take the joke further and offered a deadpan analysis of the league. As you will hear, he agrees that the NFL is rigged and that all players are handed a script at the beginning of the season.

Arian Roster Has Fans Rolling

Fans thought that this was pretty funny, and they ultimately went along with the joke. Subsequently, Twitter became filled with hilarious memes about potential scripts. The format of these memes was simple. Take a wild moment in NFL history and then deliver a video that showcases how that player reacted to reading the script. Overall, it made for some great viewing on Twitter. As it turns out, the memes are still being produced right now, and it is probably causing some commotion in the NFL offices.

At this point, everyone knows that the league isn’t actually rigged. It is easily one of the more baseless conspiracies out there. Although, with officiating the way it is, it shouldn’t be surprising that some fans actually think this way. Moreover, sometimes, games are so unpredictable that you can’t explain what occurred.

Let us know how you feel about this conspiracy, in the comments down below.

Meek Mill is the unintended comedic gold mind that keeps on giving. Whether he is promoting new music or speaking with a friend on FaceTime as they recover in the hospital, the rapper just can’t help but put a smile on someone’s face. This time fellow rapper JID is caught up in the Philadelphia native’s humor storm.

As the “Dope” rapper was brushing up on his lyrical skills, he came across an old picture Meek had uploaded to Instagram. The image innocently features Meek’s leg dipped into a swimming pool. However, a lap full of plain french fries are strangely scattered on top of his soaked swimming trunks. Inspired by the image, JID took to Twitter to share a throwaway freestyle line.

In a now-deleted tweet, JID wrote, “tryna get inside ya thighs like Meek Mill’s fries.”

Although the picture was originally uploaded back in May 2020, JID revealed he had no clue it existed until yesterday (January 22), writing, “I just saw this for the first time today.”

Meek hasn’t responded to JID’s bar but based on his past acceptance of being the king of awkward memes, he is sure to brush it off.

Meek Mill is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.
