Elon Musk’s X accidentally deletes Ellen DeGeneres’ famous Oscars selfie
Ellen DeGeneres‘ selfie at the 2014 Oscar Awards – dubbed as the most famous selfie of all time – was temporarily deleted from X (fka Twitter) last weekend.Since Elon Musk took over the reigns of Twitter, now known as X, the social media platform has experienced multiple changes and outages, from users reporting that they weren’t able to tweet unless a post was scheduled, and the infamous implementation of post limits.One of the biggest issues the platform has faced recently saw old images from 2014 and earlier wiped from the platform, instead showing up as a link, as pointed out by The Verge. This includes Ellen DeGeneres’ viral 2014 selfie, which saw her snap a picture with Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Jennifer Lawrence, Bradley Cooper, Lupita Nyong’o and more while at that year’s Oscars.One of the first users to point out this issue was Tom Coates, who wrote that he was unable to see images from 2014 on Saturday afternoon.
