The internet never sleeps, never forgets, and definitely never scrolls past the drama. And to fuel this, 2025 gave a lot of sauce and goss to all the chronically online beings out there. Whether it was Bollywood chaos, celebrity slip-ups, or unexpected internet-breaking incidents, this year gave us some of the best content. So, here’s a recap of some of the most viral moments of 2025 that made us go WTF.

1. CEO Andy Byron caught cheating in 4k

The Coldplay concert has been the most sensational event of 2025, but not just because of its wholesome vibe. The concert took an unexpected turn when Chris Martin unintentionally caught a couple in a compromising hug. What could have been a feel-good moment turned into a revelation that former Astronomer CEO Andy Byron had been cheating on his wife with the company’s CPO, Kristin Cabot. And then the internet did what it does best. It made the clip viral enough for both Andy and Kristin to resign, and their partners to file for divorce.

2. When Ranveer Allahbadia got too curious

India’s Got Latent, an Indian talent show hosted by Samay Raina, became the centre of controversy right from its release on YouTube. But things went too far when Ranveer Allahbadia asked a contestant an inappropriate “Would you rather” question. The audience’s vibe shifted, the internet clocked it instantly, and everyone at the table landed in serious trouble.

3. Ankush Bahuguna’s digital arrest

Ankush Bahuguna’s digital arrest experience unlocked a brand new fear we didn’t even know existed. Sharing his story about the dreadful days of his cyber arrest, he left everyone confused and panicked. And for a hot minute, everyone showed up with support and similar experiences, and some even showed up with memes. And that’s how Ankush’s digital arrest became one of the most viral moments of 2025.

4. Shah Rukh Khan’s Met Gala moment

One of 2025’s most viral moments was, hands down, Shah Rukh Khan’s Met Gala debut. Our beloved King Khan served looks left, right and centre, sending the internet into a frenzy. And it wasn’t just about fashion, but King Khan taking over the global stage in style and showing the newbies how it’s done.

5. Veer Pahariya’s unstoppable PR game

There’s the Bollywood celebs’ PR game, and then there’s Veer Pahariya’s team. Just when he made his debut through Skyforce, our Instagram feeds were flooded with his dance to the song, Rang. What started as a single clip became a strategic PR move that led to a series of memes about Veer Pahariya’s iconic dance step.

6. The uncool rumours around Alia Bhatt’s pregnancy

Alia Bhatt’s Cannes 2025 appearance should have been all about fashion on a global stage, but it somehow fuelled the internet’s obsession with pregnancy. If a woman puts her hand near her waist or looks visibly bloated, even if it’s from enjoying a good meal, she has to be pregnant, right? Ugh! The rumours were so unnecessary, but they proved one thing: people really need to get a life.

7. When Kajol and Twinkle Khanna were a little too much

Kajol and Twinkle Khanna’s new talk show, Too Much, quickly lived up to its name after a conversation sparked major backlash online. Along with Karan Johar, their not-so-casual take on physical infidelity being a deal-breaker didn’t land well with the viewers. What they took as light banter on the couch turned into a full-blown internet debate in no time.

8. Palash Muchhal’s loser move

Palash Muchhal proved that God can give you the Kohinoor, but if you’re stupid enough not to realise its worth, nobody can save you. After proposing to Smriti Mandhana on the cricket field days before the marriage, he allegedly cheated on her with his choreographer. He thought he could get away till the internet decided to show him his place.

9. When Virat Kohli’s algorithm did it

You can’t escape the internet, ever. And that’s what happened to Virat Kohli when people noticed his ‘like’ on one of Avneet Kaur’s photos on Instagram. When everyone created a buzz about it, Virat released a statement saying the “algorithm did it”, which made the whole incident even funnier. And that’s how “blame it on the algorithm” became a solid pop culture reference.
