    Yeah nothing viral has really ever broken the internet.

    Ellen Degenerate’s Oscar tweet sort of broke Twitter briefly, I can’t think of much else.

        Does Elon musk not count as a celeb? Because he was definitely needed to break twitter.

          Definitely doesn’t count. There’s famous, and then there’s infamous.

      Which is less impressive considering a gentle breeze can break Twitter now.

      On the same topic, the Will Smith/Chris Rock Oscar slap pretty much saturated the internet for a few days

      And Gangnam style broke the youtube view counter too, but your point stands
