The Kylo Ren Challenge Is Here & We're Bulking Up So We Can Take Part In It

Christmas came early for all sci-fi movie lovers when ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ was released and honestly even Santa couldn’t have given us a better present than Disney gave us last year. This movie was one of the biggest blockbusters of 2017, but we guess the internet wasn’t satisfied with just seeing lightsabers and jedis on screen. So, netizens did what they are best at, they tapped into their inner Sherlock and found this epic moment that has now been inked in the golden pages of Star Wars franchise and biggest memes of 2018.

You know your movie is in trouble when people talk more about a shirtless Kylo Ren than his force powers and performance. Until last year, people were raising their eyebrows over Ren’s shirtless high waisted pants look, fast forward to present time and we have an iconic meme to kickstart 2018 and the credit entirely goes to singer John Mayer.

Unless you were busy booking tickets to watch ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’, you would have seen the Kylo Ren challenge that is trending and spreading like wildfire, after Mayer posted a photo of him in high-waisted pants with no shirt on.

The moment Mayer posted the picture, people lost their sh*t and broke the internet with their own hilarious versions of the bare-chested son of Han Solo and Princess Leia and all we have to say is, this is too much internet for today. P.S. ‘May the memes be with you’.

We guess Adam Driver will now be cast in the movies only to flaunt this now infamous shirtless scene.
