Reese Witherspoon Started A New 2020 Meme And A Bunch Of Celebs Are Now Doing It (21 Memes)

Though they have mansions and acres of property to roam on, celebrities are feeling the mental anguish of the pandemic and the deepening understanding that coronavirus is going to be with us for a very, very long time. While they’re probably doing better than most in terms of personal circumstances, no one with the ability to perceive reality can remain truly unaffected by what’s happening. That’s why, even though she would as soon use me as a chair as talk to me, I still find this Reese Witherspoon 2020 challenge meme very relatable.

Reese posted a funny formatted series of images on her Instagram on Tuesday and it didn’t take very long for all of her celebrity friends to adopt it, too. It shows her progression from January through September, from her beautiful cheerful self to an absolute wreck of a human being. See? Very. Relatable.

Other celebrities were quick to adopt the meme for themselves. One of the benefits of being in front of the camera a lot is that you definitely have a lot of pictures of yourself making all sorts fo expressions, possibly in some terrible wigs. While many civilians have made their own versions, I think the celebrities are the funniest just because of the sheer number of busted characters they’ve played. I also like how they’re being honest that September isn’t getting any better—except possible the memes, which are growing by leaps and bounds in lockdown. Keep the Reese Witherspoon memes coming.
