Royal rumble

WATCH: Princess Anne goes viral after snubbing Trump at Buckingham Palace

With but a shrug of her shoulders, Princess Anne has become Twitter’s hero of the day, or hour, or however long it takes for something else minorly cathartic to happen.

The 69-year-old daughter of Queen Elizabeth II was filmed opting out of a royal receiving line for Donald and Melania Trump at Buckingham Palace after the first day of the NATO summit in London. The queen appears to shoot Anne a disapproving look, to which the princess shrugs and stays put.

That was enough to get Anne to trend on Twitter, with folks praising her as both a “legend” and a “mood.” That might be pushing it.

Judge for yourself whether the bar needs to be raised for either title:
