HuffPost reports that a red-carpet pose it calls the 'boob rest,' featuring a hand or hands draped across the chest, has been adopted by celebrities including Selena Gomez, Dua Lipa, Kylie Jenner and Zendaya. The piece traces its lineage from the millennial 'teapot pose' and notes it has already been parodied by comedians at an awards show.

Two non-celebrity sources, a 25-year-old content creator and a 22-year-old fan of the look, tell the outlet the pose solves the eternal problem of what to do with your hands for a camera, while doubling as a flex for manicures or jewelry.

The full dispatch is available from the source below.

✒ FROM THE EDITORIAL DESK
Every generation invents a new way to stand still for a photograph and calls it a trend, and every generation is right that it beats the alternative of just looking lost. Still, dedicating a whole write-up to where famous people rest their hands says less about Gen Z than about how thin the news day must have been.
