Lady Gaga, Bill Murray continue selfie onslaught on ‘Late Show’

Suddenly, the selfie is everywhere. It’s been around since forever, but Ellen DeGeneres’ Oscar-night selfie has suddenly made it a pop culture “thing� for celebrities to do. Latest evidence: Bill Murray, Lady Gaga and David Letterman on Wednesday night’s “Late Show.�

Murray popped up continually on Letterman’s show Wednesday night as he checked items off his personal bucket list. He asked, and was allowed, to deliver a joke during Letterman’s monologue. And he got Letterman to air a clip from his movie, “The Grand Budapest Hotel� and read nice things off a piece of paper.

But Murray’s ultimate “ask� was to meet Lady Gaga, who happened to be performing that night nearby at the Roseland Ballroom. And, lo and behold, Letterman made it happen. Lady Gaga just “happened� to be backstage and came out in her full Gaga splendor to meet Murray. And then all three posed for a selfie.

The assembled Oscar hopefuls combined to selfie Twitter into a temporary shutdown; baseball slugger David Ortiz grabbed a selfie with President Obama; and now there’s a Murray-Gaga-Letterman selfie floating around out there. Not causing controversy, not breaking anything, just being cool — as most things associated with Murray usually are.

The selfie in question is viewable here, for those who want to marvel at Murray’s photo-taking skills.

At the end of the show, Letterman and Murray led the audience to the Roseland Ballroom to watch a special performance before Gaga’s regular show. Not exactly a new car, but not a kick in the head, either.
