The girl from the viral bored nightclub meme has stepped in front of the cameras for the first time in seven years – to recreate a selection of other iconic memes.

Lucia Gorman, now 24-years-old, became an internet sensation overnight in 2018 thanks to a picture taken on a night out at Milk Club Edinburgh.

The legendary shot, which shows her looking uninterested as a friend speaks into her ear, has since been shared millions of times and is one of the most famous memes in digital history.

Lucia has stepped back into the limelight to recreate the picture which made her famous alongside some of the internet’s most beloved memes – from Harry Maguire’s Put the Bins Out to the ever-relatable Confused Math Lady.

Samsung has enlisted her help to bring to life the common face fails to highlight its Best Face technology on the new Galaxy A56 5G that can help prevent common photo mishaps by using AI to perfect group shots by replacing blinking eyes or awkward faces.

00:00I know all about awkward photos. I am an iconic meme.
00:06I thought it was pretty crazy when I first saw the meme.
00:08The phone was flying off the handles, people in Edinburgh would say,
00:11sorry to bother you, are you perhaps that girl in that meme?
00:13I thought, this is quite crazy, I don't know how you know who I am, but yes I am.
00:20So today I'm here with Samsung, who have the best face AI feature on the Galaxy A56 5G.
00:26And that means everyone can get a brilliant shot every time.
00:29Thank goodness.
00:30Photo fails are so frustrating, there's always going to be one that my best friend loves
00:34and I hate, or one I hate and that she loves, and we're not posting the same one then.
00:37So it's definitely a great feature that you can end up seeing we can both love the same photo.
00:42Love a meme.
00:43Speaks a thousand words.
00:44Yes, I have got a favourite, it's the guy and he's sort of looking at me and he's blinking,
00:47like he's confused.
00:50Do you know the one I mean?
00:53I think using the best face feature would be brilliant at something like a family gathering.
00:56We've got about ten people there, someone's got their eyes shut,
00:58someone's looking the other way, so we can just bring it all together with a perfect shot.
01:01If only I'd had it way back when, when that photo was taken,
01:04I think the story would have been quite different.
01:05We both could have been smiling.
