Sorry, President Barack Obama, but Ellen DeGeneres now has the most epic selfie ever.
The Oscar host's star-studded picture featuring Jennifer Lawrence, Brad Pitt, Lupita Nyong'o, and so many others became the most-tweeted photo of all time in less than 45 minutes. President Obama's "Four More Years" tweet held the top spot before Sunday night's show. As of 8 a.m. PT on Wednesday, the pic had well over 3 million retweets.
