One of the unexpected protagonists of the night was Leonardo DiCaprio, considered by many as the "king of memes", after a reaction that quickly went viral on social media.
Everything happened during the monologue of the host Conan O'Brien, in charge of hosting this year's Oscar gala. In the middle of a joke directed at the actor, the cameras focused on DiCaprio, who showed an awkward and surprising expression. That gesture was enough for the internet to work its magic. Within hours, users of X, TikTok, and Instagram began sharing the image accompanied by the text "TFP you didn't agree to this" ("the face you make when you don't agree with this"). The meme is used to describe uncomfortable situations or moments when someone finds themselves involved in something without having given their consent.
This is not the first time DiCaprio has been the star of a viral phenomenon. The actor has already been a meme on numerous occasions thanks to scenes from movies like 'Django Unchained' or 'The Great Gatsby'. Once again, the internet has shown that the 2026 Oscars not only crown the best films of the year but can also give rise to the next big global meme.
