The viral star now has more than 514,000 followers on Instagram and has been trying her hand at modeling ever since

The then two-year-old, from Utah, summed up an entire mood while serving up some serious side eye.

She previously claimed ownership of her world-famous meme only to then sell it back as a non-fungible token — a unique digital identifier that cannot be copied, replaced, or subdivided.

But ten years later, she is completely unrecognizable as she wears darker locks and has replaced her blonde locks with her darker hair and braces.

She now has more than 514k followers on Instagram and has been trying her hand at modeling ever since.

The then nine-year-old was thrust into the limelight in 2013 thanks to his hilarious reaction when he was mistaken for another viral star known as Lil Terio.

It was announced earlier this year that he had signed a contract with the fast food chain that has made him synonymous with a sponsorship that will use his name, image and likeness on billboards across the US.

He told CNN in January that while he hadn’t always enjoyed the social media frenzy, he was able to turn it into a “blessing.”

She has amassed over 26,000 followers on Instagram by sharing a series of enviable photos from her travels.

The viral clip has since been removed from YouTube after the family sold it as NFT to an anonymous bidder in 2021 for $760,999.

It has since been revealed that their parents – who also have two other sons – decided to put the majority of their original royalties into private schooling for all four sons.
