Ellen Degeneres hosted the Oscars.
During the awards, she took a celebrity-packed selfie picture.
Her Oscar selfie became the most retweeted photo of all time.
It's everywhere.
The photo was taken on a Samsung device.
And Samsung agreed to donate a dollar for every retweet
to a charity of Ellen's choice.
Ellen is against seal hunting and chose to donate 1.5 million dollars to the Humane Society of the United States. As if they didn't have enough money already. Everybody in! On three, say sealfie. One, two, three. Sealfie! ♪♪ My friend Laquluk and I were talking about what else we could do. And she suggested we make a play on the word "selfie" and post Sealfies, pictures of ourselves wearing sealskin. Or hunting or eating seals. ♪♪ It's a cheeky but positive way to bring awareness to the fact that Inuit are affected by anti-sealing campaigns. ♪♪ So we posted our own Sealfies. We got in touch with local media. And put out a call for other Inuit to join us and use the hashtag Sealfie. And Inuit are responding. ♪♪ The Sealfies are going great. But the extreme anti-sealers have found us. And our tiny little corner of the Internet has exploded with hateful messages. My friend Tania Tega posted a Sealfie of her cute chubby baby next to a freshly cut seal. And somebody photo-shopped her baby being skinned alive. Some of the messages that my friends and I are receiving are truly shocking. It always catches me off guard. You can see my eyes. [Baby cooing] The media requests about Sealfies keep coming.
Remember me, buy my shirts!
