Highlights
- At the 'Bollywood Oscars,' do as the real Oscars do. At the IIFA awards on April 26 in Tampa Bay, host Shahid Kapoor gathered a bunch of celebrities into a version of Ellen DeGeneres star-studded Oscar selfie.
- The common factor between both group selfies was House of Cards star Kevin Spacey, who occupied prime real estate in both Ellen's photo and Shahid's.
- Also in Shahid's picture were his rumoured girlfriend Sonakshi Sinha, her father Shatrughan - recipient of the IIFA award for Lifetime Achievement - Shahid's co-host Farhan Akhtar and 24 actor Anil Kapoor.
- Unlike Ellen's selfie, which quickly became the most retweeted picture, Shahid's photo made barely a dent online. But then, Ellen had press-ganged far more celebs into service. Count them - Brad and Angelina, Meryl Streep, Jennifer Roberts, Jennifer Lawrencee, Bradley (who took the picture), Jared Leto, Lupita Nyong'o and Channing Tatum. And Kevin Spacey, of course.
