The Weeknd delivered a halftime show at Super Bowl 55 that included the Blinding Lights singer dancing with a bunch of masked dancers and a bunch of songs from his list of hits.
It also included one sequence in which he went inside and appeared to hold a camera as if it was his smartphone taking a selfie video. For many fans watching the game, it made them seasick as The Weeknd swayed around inside a mirrored studio of sorts, creating a dizzying effect.
It also resulted in a hilarious meme that made its way around social media. Here’s a sampling:
