A video of Rami Malek listing the different things he is a fan of has inspired a ton of hilarious memes and reactions on the internet.
Rami Malek recently nabbed a Best Actor Academy Award for his performance in Bohemian Rhapsody. Now, the internet has awarded him another prestigious title: most meme-worthy performance in a viral video. Fans of the actor have turned a video of him listing things he is "a fan of" into a truly versatile meme.
Rami Malek: He's a Fan
The original video is a promotion for Mandarin Oriental Hotels, a luxury chain which other celebrities like Christoph Waltz and Dev Patel have also promoted. In fact, Dev Patel has his own "I'm a fan" video.
Rami's "I'm a fan" video saw him sing the praises of Freddy Mercury, Queen, his mom, tea, "mischief" and other things. The internet found something compelling about Rami's video in particular and the memes started rolling in.
