Michelle Obama’s ‘side-eye’ becomes instant hit online as internet reacts with glee at her disapproving facial expressions during inauguration
The former First Lady's grimaces were seized upon by social media users who turned them into memes
THE internet has reacted with glee at a swathe of disapproving facial expressions Michelle Obama pulled while in the company of the Trump family during yesterday's inauguration.
Labelled "side-eye" and "serious stink-eye", her grimaces sparked dozens of internet memes claiming she was "inspiring" and "stoic".
She was seen grimacing first when she was handed a leaving present by incoming First Lady Melania Trump prior to the ceremony.
One person wrote: "Michelle Obama's face speaks for the world... in simple, what the f*** is going on here?"
Another said: "Melanie (sic) Trump giving Michelle Obama her speech back this morning" - a reference to claims Melania plagiarised a speech by Michelle during the campaign.
And a third joker claimed she was "already looking for a trash can".
Only an hour or so later Michelle Obama was at it again - with freeze frames showing her giving "side-eye" during the inauguration ceremony.
A viewer said: "Michelle Obama's sideeye was the real winner of this #inauguration."
Another claimed her expression was similar to that of a student forced to present a joint project in class next to someone who had contributed nothing to it, but had their name as co-author.
Corey Hamilton tweeted: "Any of ya'll peep Michelle's face she ain't rocking she look like she wanna pop off."
