If you’ve been seeing lots of that fun “LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and Tinder” memes on social media lately, then you have Dolly Parton to thank, as the country music royalty was apparently the one who started it all.
On January 21st, the 74-year-old Grammy-winning artist took to Instagram to share a photo collage of four versions of herself, which were represented by LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, and Tinder. For the career-oriented site LinkedIn, Dolly appears professional in a fitted, buttoned-up blazer. For the family-friendly Facebook, Dolly looks casual and comfy in her Christmas sweater. For the aesthetics-driven Instagram, Parton rocks a pair of high-waisted bell bottoms, which she matched with a tattered denim shirt. And lastly, for the dating app Tinder, Parton dresses up in the similar bunny outfit she wore for the cover of the October 1978 issue of Playboy magazine.
Since everybody loves Parton, several celebrities quickly joined in on the fun and did their own versions of the meme. Though it’s unclear whether Parton runs her own social media accounts, several stars have credited her for starting the trend, which has eventually been dubbed as the Dolly Parton Challenge.
If you haven’t seen enough of those entertaining memes, then you’re in luck, because we’ve just made a list of the best celebrity Dolly Parton Challenge memes that would definitely put a smile on your face. See the list below:
#1 Kerry Washington
Kerry’s LinkedIn photo features Olivia Pope, the crisis management expert she played in the ABC drama series Scandal. Her Facebook picture, meanwhile, shows a photo of her with her parents from a party celebrating her Glamour magazine cover back in 2013. For Instagram, the actress picked a snapshot of her at the premiere of the 2019 film American Son, where she wore a red and purple patterned skirt and a classy black top. Lastly, for Tinder, Kerry chose a screenshot from the 2017 film I Think I l Love My Wife, in which she tried to seduce Chris Rock’s married character by wearing nothing but a sexy pair of black lingerie.
#2 Ellen DeGeneres
While Ellen’s LinkedIn, Instagram, and Facebook photos are pretty normal, the same can’t be said about her hilarious Tinder picture, which features her popular alter ego Cardi E. Inspired by Cardi B’s character Diamond in the film Hustlers, Ellen’s Cardi E has long blonde hair, huge fake rubber boobs, and an insane obsession with twerking.
#3 Kristen Chenoweth
Kristen’s LinkedIn photo features Annabeth Schott, her ever-reliable Deputy Press Secretary character on NBC’s political drama The West Wing. Her Facebook picture, meanwhile, shows her hanging out with her cute dog Thunder. And over on Instagram, she’s seen delightfully munching on a huge slice of pizza all on her own. As for her Tinder picture, the Tony Award-winning actress chose a photo of her in a two-piece swimsuit that highlights her toned physique.
#4 Andy Cohen
As expected, Andy’s LinkedIn photo is a dashing picture of him on the set of his late-night talk show, Watch What Happens Live. His Facebook picture shows him with his mom and dad, while his Instagram photo sees him holding his cute baby boy, Benjamin Allen. And in his Tinder pic, the silver fox shows off his muscular built while bathing on the beach shirtless. Some fans, however, think that his version of the meme would have been more accurate if he replaced the word Tinder with Grindr.
#5 Reba McEntire
Dressed in matching blue pants and blazers, Reba appears like an experienced career woman in her LinkedIn photo. She, on the other hand, looks like the glue that holds her family together, in her Facebook picture, which is actually a photo from her eponymous The WB/The CW sitcom that ran from 2001 to 2007. Reba’s Instagram photo, meanwhile, shows a sweet and timid version of herself, which is in great contrast to her provocative and cleavage-revealing persona featured in her Tinder photo.
#6 Celine Dion
Aptly captioned “A look for every occasion,” Celine’s version of the Dolly Parton Challenge shows four different sides of herself: the sleek girl boss on LinkedIn, the goofy basketball fan on Facebook, the quirky fashionista on Instagram, and the alluring hot mama on Tinder.
#7 Mindy Kaling
Mindy’s LinkedIn photo features Kelly Kapoor, the self-proclaimed “business bitch” she played on the NBC sitcom The Office. Her adorable Facebook picture, meanwhile, shows her enjoying a lazy Sunday at home with her baby girl, Katherine. And while she’s already a mom, her Instagram pic proves that she still has what it takes to be one of those young models in fashion brochures. And lastly, for her Tinder photo, the comedienne picked a mirror selfie that showcases her voluptuous body in a tight-fitting leotard.
#8 Mark Ruffalo
A screenshot from the 2004 drama film We Don’t Live Here Anymore, Mark’s LinkedIn picture features Jack Linden, the actor’s college professor character in the John Curran-directed movie. Mark’s Facebook and Instagram photos are easily forgettable, but his shirtless Tinder picture — which gives a peek at his sexy hairy chest — is an image that would linger in the minds of anyone who has got the hots for him.
#9 Will Smith
Will’s version of the Dolly Parton challenge pretty sums up why people love him. On LinkedIn, he’s a hardworking career man. On Facebook, he’s a dude who can make fun of himself. On Instagram, he’s a fashionista with some serious swag. And lastly, on Tinder, he’s a Grade A meat that ladies would definitely swipe right for in an instant.
#10 Martha Stewart
With cooking being a significant part of her lifestyle brand, it makes total sense that Martha’s LinkedIn photo shows her in a kitchen beating some eggs. For Facebook, Martha shares a picture of her with her four dogs. Though she’s also got three cats, 13 peacocks, 45 canaries and other pets at home, the businesswoman obviously knows that dog photos get the most attention. Unlike several celebrities, Martha doesn’t show off any fancy outfit in her Instagram pic, because why does she need to do that when she’s already with the ever-fashionable Snoop Dogg in the photo. Among all the pictures in her version of the meme, Martha’s Tinder snapshot is probably the most surprising, as a lot of people still don’t know that she actually did modeling when she was younger.
#11 Cara Delevingne
Talking to the press people can be difficult for up-and-coming actors, but based on Cara’s LinkedIn photo, it seems that she’s already got the hang of it. Cara usually plays serious and feisty roles in her projects, so it’s a breath of fresh air to see her being silly in her Facebook photo. Before starting her acting career, Cara was a fulltime model, so it’s somehow expected that her Instagram photo is a picture of her during her time as a Victoria’s Secret angel. And in case you feel that Cara’s Instagram picture is a little bit tame for a lingerie model, just check out how wild she is in her Tinder pic.
#12 Jimmy Fallon
Since a huge number of Instagram posts are all about food, many of Jimmy’s followers find his photo with chips and guacamole spot on. And though he’s trying his best to give a seductive wink in his Tinder photo, it’s funny that a number of fans think that he’s way sexier in her LinkedIn pic. Those fans even claim that his Dolly Parton challenge meme would have been better if he switched both images.
#13 Miley Cyrus
A goddaughter of Dolly Parton, Miley gives her fans a range of emotions in her very own version of the viral challenge. Though Miley is wearing a coverall suit with a deep plunging neckline in her LinkedIn photo, she still manages to look profesh by posing with both of her hands inside her pockets. And while the Hannah Montana star is pretty much composed and wholesome in her Facebook photo, her weird side and her wild side are on full display in her Instagram and Tinder pictures, respectively.
#14 Rachel Greene from Friends
Wearing her usual style of office wear, Rachel looks like an amiable workmate in her LinkedIn photo. In her Facebook picture, meanwhile, Rachel is seen sharing an intimate moment with her on-again, off-again boyfriend Ross. On Instagram, she’s decked out in that horrible pink dress that she wore at her ex-fiance’s wedding. And on Tinder, she’s dressed up as a bikini-clad Princess Leia, turning one of Ross’ ultimate sexual fantasies into reality.
#15 Monica Geller from Friends
Monica’s formal LinkedIn photo is a screenshot from the episode of Friends, in which she has a job interview with the company producing the non-FDA approved synthetic chocolate substitute called Mockolate. Of course, her Facebook photo, features her and her husband Chandler with their newborn twins. And while it’s nice to see Monica in a chic set of clothes with Phoebe on Instagram, many fans feel that the meme would have been more accurate if its Instagram photo spotlights one of the many dishes that Monica made in the series. As for Monica’s sultry Tinder photo, it shows one of the many reasons why Chandler can’t get enough of her.
#16 Phoebe Buffay from Friends
Phoebe’s LinkedIn photo is from the episode where she works as Chandler’s secretary. While that’s pretty on point, some fans think it could have been more fun, if it features stockbroker Phoebe. Meanwhile, since Phoebe was in her happiest when she wed Mike, it makes total sense that her Facebook photo is a lovely picture of her from the wedding ceremony. And because Phoebe almost became a celebrity after releasing the music video for her iconic song Smelly Cat, it’s fitting that her Instagram photo is a screenshot from the said video. As for Phoebe’s Tinder photo, it’s from the time she tried to seduce Chandler in an effort for him and Monica to come forward with their relationship.
#17 Ross Geller from Friends
Ross is a passionate palaeontology college professor on LinkedIn, the best dad to Ben on Facebook, a leather pants-loving bachelor on Instagram, and a half-tanned dude on Tinder.
#18 Joey Tribbiani from Friends
Joey’s LinkedIn photo features his Days of Our Lives alter ego Dr. Drake Ramoray, while his Instagram pic shows the time when he accepts his co-star’s Soapie Awards on her behalf and ends up reading his own acceptance speech. While his Facebook photo could have been more interesting if it featured a sandwich, his shirtless Tinder pic is more than enough to fill that void.
#19 Chandler Bing from Friends
Chandler’s LinkedIn photo was taken during his time as an IT procurement manager. While he’s flashing a sarcastic smile in that picture, he, in contrast, has the most genuine smile in his Facebook photo with his wife Monica. His Instagram photo, meanwhile, isn’t really a picture of him, but of actor Matthew Perry who played him on the sitcom. And while it seems like Chandler is engaging in some sort of BDSM in his Tinder photo, it’s actually that time when Rachel’s boss locks him up in her office.
#20 Conan O’Brien
Attired in a navy blue suit, Conan looks like a compliant employee in his LinkedIn photo. That affable persona of him extends to its Facebook pic, where he can be seen casually smiling to the camera. While his Instagram photo shows his wacky side, his Tinder pic hilariously reveals that he is open to trying anything in the sex department.
#21 Mario Lopez
Since eyeglasses usually make people look smarter, Mario seemingly made sure that he’s wearing a pair in his LinkedIn picture. For his Facebook photo, Mario picked a lovely picture of him with his mom, suggesting that he prefers to use Facebook to connect with his family. And if Mario uses Facebook for family, it appears that his Instagram is dedicated to his friends, especially to his drinking buddies who are featured in the meme’s Instagram photo. As for Mario’s Tinder picture, the Access Hollywood host decided to showcase a shirtless photo of him from an ad campaign for Calvin Klein several years ago.
