Unchill Stan Twitter turned Beyoncé and Jay-Z's 'Mona Lisa' moment into a meme

Who needs the Mona Lisa when you can have Timothée Chalamet?

Beyoncé and Jay-Z blessed us this weekend with their surprise joint album Everything Is Love.

Then they unveiled the music video for "Apeshit" -- which, by the way, they rented the LOUVRE for -- and took the collective internet for a lesson in art history. It's incredible.

So naturally, the internet had to ruin it.

The music video includes a stunning shot of the couple dressed in pastel suits and standing before Da Vinci's "Mona Lisa."

But because stan Twitter can't just enjoy anything, Twitter users in different fandoms turned the scene into a meme that serves their specific interests.

For example: Lady Gaga Twitter got in on it, as did Taylor Swift Twitter.

Who would dare suggest that TAYLOR tops the CARTERS?

K-pop Twitter jumped in on the meme as well, because we all dream of 2NE1 getting back together, right?

Orange Is The New Black Twitter made an appearance.

As did Timothée Chalamet Twitter. (OK, this one is understandable.)

As is this one.

And sure, Adele won the Grammy, but she gave due credit to Beyoncé during her acceptance speech! If anything, Adele would be looking up to the Carters at the Louvre.

Fans even imagined the Carters paying their respects to our Lorde and savior.

But the only truly acceptable version of the meme is this one: Beyoncé and Jay-Z admiring this painting of Beyoncé as the Mona Lisa.

Honestly, if you were Beyoncé, wouldn't you admire yourself, too?
