LOS ANGELES, March 3 (UPI) -- Ellen DeGeneres Oscar selfie -- now the most retweeted image ever -- seems to have everyone who's anyone in it.

Hollywood royalty Meryl Streep, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie all make appearances, as do it-stars Bradley Cooper, Jennifer Lawrence, and Lupita N'yongo. Channing Tatum squeezes in, as does newly minted Oscar winner Jared Leto, and Kevin Spacey fills in with a meme-worthy expression in the back. Even N'yongo's brother gets in close.
