This week, journalist Clara Albuquerque, TNT Sports correspondent in Paris, made an innocent request on X (formerly Twitter).
During an interview with gymnast Rebeca Andrade, Clara immortalized the moment with a photo that had an extra character: a woman in the background:
“Can someone take the lady out of the photo for me?” asked the journalist. That was just what the internet needed.
From brands to endless jokes, internet users didn’t miss the opportunity. Advertisers like Zé Delivery and Netshoes “fixed the photo”.

Even Samsung came forward when internet users claimed to be using the giant’s Artificial Intelligence technology to remove the lady from the photo.
