Hollywood Stars Can’t Get Enough of the Viral “Elf on the Shelf” Meme

Hollywood stars like hilarious social media challenges just like the rest of us. One of the latest viral memes they can’t get enough of is putting a twist on the “Elf on the Shelf” with hilarious photoshopped images and silly puns that will put a smile on your face.

This viral challenge was started by the TV host Garcelle Beauvais, when she reposted a photo of Pharrell Williams with a tiny version of herself sitting on his shoulder. The caption read “You’ve heard of Elf on the Shelf, now get ready for this” and her fans quickly noticed their names rhymed, which is the main reason why this meme is so funny.

Many Hollywood stars made their own versions of the meme, always rhyming their first or last name with other celebrities or pop culture icons. Reese Witherspoon’s “Grease-on-Reese”, Elizabeth Banks’ “Hanks on Banks”, and Mark Ruffalo’s “Stark on Mark” are some of the most notable examples of this meme so far, but the list of participants is getting longer as we speak.

2020 has given us many celebrity challenges so far, but they’re ending the year with the most hilarious one yet. It’s festive and really funny, and it’s obvious that everyone is having a great time coming up with perfect Elf on the Shelf-inspired puns to share with the world.
