has won the internet this week.

The much-loved TV presenter, 34, has recreated a bunch of iconic posts from celebs over the years – but how many do you remember?

Rylan is known for whether he’s or

But now he’s taken things one step further, channelling his inner and for our entertainment.

To mark a new Samsung campaign, Rylan started off by donning a white lace gown and long brunette wig, lying on the floor with his eyes closed.

Looking practically identical to Kendall, his hair was shaped into hearts around his head and, we have to admit, the outcome was stunning.

Kendall’s original photo sent the internet into a spin back in 2015, becoming the most-liked image on the platform at the time, now with over 3.4million likes.

Next up we had everyone’s favourite Scottish singer-songwriter, as Rylan made the slightly less glam transformation into the Bruises hitmaker.

With a pair of red sunnies and a towel on his head, Rylan flashed up a peace sign in true Capaldi style.

Lewis first shared the meme-worthy selfie back in 2019, after his single Someone You Loved hit number one for six consecutive weeks,

For his third image, Rylan took inspo from Justin Bieber himself.

Reimagining one of social media’s first viral selfies, he recreated Justin’s tattoo reveal in his bad boy era in 2013 with some serious smouldering.

The original selfies smashed the one million like mark, with Rylan nailing all the finer details by posing in moody tour bus lighting and channelling the Bieb’s bad boy energy.

Finally, Rylan slipped into bed as one of football’s greats, Lionel Messi – who posed with his World Cup trophy after a triumphant win at last year’s competition.

The soccer ace went viral in 2022, bagging a whopping 54.8million likes after his heroics brought home the world title for Argentina.

This has come as Samsung has launched a nationwide competition to win £500,000 just by taking a selfie on the new foldables range, at a Samsung store or participating retailer.

Who better to launch the competition than the self-confessed selfie king, who has admitted to snapping more than 100 every week.

The former X Factor star said: ‘I’m the self-confessed king of selfies and on some days, one selfie can lead to taking a 100.

‘I loved recreating some of the most famous celebrity selfies of all time to launch Samsung’s nationwide competition to win half a million quid – just by taking a selfie. Get snapping, people!’

Annika Bizon, marketing and omnichannel director at Samsung, also said: ‘Selfies have become part of our culture, and our new promotion celebrates this like never before.

‘Our latest foldable phones are a must-have for selfie lovers everywhere, packed with innovative camera features.  

‘We are delighted to be working with Rylan, he is definitely up there in the selfie hall of fame so the perfect person to bring this campaign to life.
