16 Legendary Selfies of 2013

While self-portraits have been around for as long as the camera, it's safe to say the selfie dominated 2013 -- so much, that the term was officially inducted into the Oxford dictionary. Years from now when your grandkids wonder why you have so many framed photos of your own face, you'll be able to point to the dictionary for the answer.

Some were with front-facing cameras, while others stood in front of mirrors. The selfie has made its way to just about anywhere. Everyone from Justin Bieber to Bill Clinton and Bill Gates got in on the selfie action -- even animals, like that mischievous eagle, had a little narcissism this year.
