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 Instagram

  1. Open the Stories camera in the Instagram app.
  2. Swipe through the filters until you see the magnifying glass icon.
  3. Search for “Your Disney Twin” and select the filter.
  4. Tap “Try It” and see which character you’re paired with.

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.

He won Spain’s top Scrabble title without speaking Spanish

Some people are good at Scrabble. And then there’s Nigel Richards, a guy who exists on a completely different plane of existence when it comes to letter tiles, triple-word scores, and mind-bending strategy. This New Zealander, who has long been considered the greatest Scrabble player in the world, just did something so wild it sounds like a glitch in the Matrix: He won the Spanish-language Scrabble World Championship… without actually speaking Spanish.

According to a report by the Associated Press (AP), Richards clinched the title in Granada, Spain, after losing just one game out of 24. Let that sink in. A man who doesn’t know the language beats native Spanish speakers at their own game, all while calmly rearranging tiles like some linguistic Jedi.

His jaw clicked for five years. AI gave him a fix that worked in 60 seconds.

For more than five years, Reddit user u/User2000ss lived with a persistent click in his jaw. The likely culprit? A boxing injury. Anytime he opened his mouth wide, it would shift or pop - sometimes painfully, but always annoyingly. He’d tried everything: pressing on the joint, doctor visits, even multiple MRIs. Nothing worked. So he chalked it up to permanent damage and moved on.

Then one day, almost on a whim, he asked ChatGPT what might be going on.
