What this was
Laina Morris entered a Justin Bieber contest on 6 June 2012 with a rewritten Girlfriend, sung straight to camera with an unblinking smile, about reading her boyfriend's messages. Reddit found it, it took 170,000 views on the first day, and a single frame of the stare became one of the most-used image macros of the era.
It first appeared in 2012, during the social era. The copy this index knows about is on YouTube.
