#MySleepySelfie
The Social Media Trend Everyone Was Talking About
I didn't know what #MySleepySelfie meant until I came across photos shared by 2Baba (2Face) alongside comedian Princess while travelling on Arik Air. Curiosity got the better of me, so I decided to investigate the hashtag.
After digging around, I discovered that legendary producer Don Jazzy had introduced #MySleepySelfie into Nigerian social media culture. Before long, celebrities including D'Prince, Dr. Sid, Darey and many others had joined the trend, making it one of the hottest conversations online.
I even searched through Linda Ikeji's blog hoping to find the origin of the term, but surprisingly there wasn't much information available at the time. It appeared that the trend had grown so quickly that even major entertainment blogs were catching up.
The hashtag also earned Don Jazzy the reputation of being a "Trailblazer" for creating yet another viral internet trend in Nigeria.
