There’s a new filter sweeping social media, and it’s leaving people somewhere between delighted and personally attacked. The Your Disney Twin filter is a fresh trend that’s blown up in the past few days, and it promises to show you which Disney character you most resemble — by matching half of your face with a randomly selected character.

The results? Sometimes spot-on, sometimes hilariously off, and occasionally, just downright savage. This viral trend has millions of people sharing their matches, and the reactions are comedy gold.




The filter that’s roasting everyone

The “Your Disney Twin” filter is available on Snapchat, Instagram, and TikTok. It works by splitting the screen — one half shows your face, and the other half reveals your Disney look-alike.

The fun (or the pain) is in the randomness. You might get paired with a graceful princess, a daring hero, or… Jafar. The unpredictability of it all has sparked countless reactions, making the filter wildly popular.


In this carousel, users take turns trying the filter, and the results range from flattering to absolutely brutal. Think you’re going to be matched with Elsa? Sorry, here’s Ursula instead.

How to try the filter yourself

Want to find your Disney twin and risk a hit to your ego? Here’s how to do it:

On Snapchat

  1. Open the Snapchat app and go to the camera screen.
  2. Tap the smiley face icon to open the Lens Explorer.
  3. Search for “Your Disney Twin”. 
  4. Select the filter, record your video, and brace yourself for the result.

On TikTok

While the filter isn’t native to TikTok, here’s a hack: Use the filter on Snapchat or Instagram, save the video, and upload it to TikTok with the hashtag #DisneyTwin.

The internet’s best reactions

People haven’t been shy about sharing their results — and their reactions are half the fun.

TikTok user @itsmecharlieeee got paired with Hades from Hercules and captioned their video: “Guess I’m feeling villainous today.”

Another user, @lilylaughsalot, was matched with Goofy and just sighed: “Can’t argue with that.”

Meanwhile, @sarahsmiles got Yzma from The Emperor’s New Groove and said:“Honestly? I feel attacked, but also… she’s kind of fabulous.”

When @johndoughnut got paired with Quasimodo: “Guess I’m ringing the bells today!”




 
 

Why it’s going viral

The magic of this filter is in its mix of nostalgia and humor. We all have a soft spot for Disney characters, but getting matched with someone unexpected adds a layer of comedy. Whether it’s the joy of nailing a perfect match or the hilarity of a total mismatch, the filter taps into our love for a little playful self-roasting.

Final thoughts — and a challenge

Think you’ll get Ariel or Prince Eric? Give the filter a try and find out. Just be prepared — Disney magic can be as savage as it is sweet.

Try the filter and join the fun. Share your results with the hashtag #DisneyTwin and see who else got hilariously humbled by Disney’s casting department.

Blending styles can be difficult. Naturally, when two or more people are brought together, their visions aren’t always going to mesh. Like getting a haircut then realizing, after they spin you around for the big reveal, that your barber actually didn’t “totally get” the inspiration photo you brought in. Or teaming up with some friends for a group project in school who you didn't realize were petrified of public speaking. Or, take One Direction for example. Five solo singers who at didn't get along at all at first, brought together only after Simon Cowell corralled them all into a boy band.

Psychologist reveals exactly why everyone acts weird at airports

Fewer places bring out weirder human behavior than airports. Sleeping on floors? Acceptable. Paying $8 for a bag of chips? Acceptable. And 9 a.m. beers? Totally acceptable. Time (and personal space) seems to suspend itself when you're traveling in them. And psychologist Steve Taylor, a Senior Psychology Lecturer at Leeds Beckett University, explained exactly why everything and everyone feels so weird when you're in an airport with The Conversation.

Simply put: airports cause disorientation. "Due to the haziness of time and place, airports create a sense of disorientation," he explains. "We define ourselves in terms of time and place. We know who we are in relation to our daily routines and our familiar environments. We also define ourselves in terms of nationality. Without such markers, we may feel adrift."

She noticed something odd in a news photo—25 years after her brother vanished

When someone close suddenly disappears, their family clings fiercely to hope—even if the search stretches across decades. A woman who had spent years desperately searching for her younger brother, Tommy, discovered an astonishing lead after 25 years of uncertainty. Ahead of Thanksgiving, a seemingly ordinary detail in an online news story changed their lives forever.

For decades, the sister had carried deep sadness about Tommy’s disappearance in 1999. According to CNN, Tommy had vanished along with his vehicle without leaving any trace. Over the years, she anxiously scoured reports of unidentified remains, fearing the worst. However, her fortunes changed dramatically after coming across an article in USA Today, which featured a hospitalized man whose identity was unknown, as he could neither speak nor communicate effectively.
