Celebrities at the peak of popularity: Memes that took over the Internet

Emotions, hyperbole and humor - all this turns a simple frame into a real Internet legend. Leonardo DiCaprio, Dwayne Johnson, Nicolas Cage, Robert Downey Jr. and Rowan Atkinson — their faces have become an integral part of Internet culture thanks to memes that will never lose relevance.

Leonardo DiCaprio: Icon of consent

It is almost impossible to imagine the Internet without a meme raising a glass from "The Great Gatsby". This Leonardo gesture became a symbol of agreement and praise in the virtual world, uniting people on different continents in a single emoticon. However, this is not the only image of the actor that won the hearts of users. His emotional expression from "Island of the Damned" also leaves a lasting impression.

Dwayne Johnson: Surprise in full

The shot from "Witch Mountain", where Dwayne Johnson looks at his passenger in surprise, has become a universal sign of misunderstanding and surprise. This meme is the perfect way to ask the obvious, which is still surprising, and has remained relevant since the movie's release in 2009.

Nicolas Cage: Fun in simplicity

The phrase "Alright", supported by the funny expression of Nicolas Cage from "Kiss of the Vampire", became an apt comment on any obvious situation. This meme reminds us that even the stars can look only human when it comes to everyday surprises.

Robert Downey Jr.: Pathos and Triumph

The image of Robert Downey Jr. from "The Avengers" where he rolls his eyes is a real hit with anyone who wants to express skepticism. And the raised hands in "Iron Man 2" are a symbol of victory, which marks the triumphant moments in the life of each of us.

Rowan Atkinson: A wink for the special ones

Rowan Atkinson's winking facial expression has taken the internet by storm, if you know what I'm talking about. These are the moments when humor and allusion combine to create something truly unique.
