Here's how that awkward IFTA selfie turned out

It didn’t exactly go to plan.

EVERYBODY WAS TALKING about last night’s IFTAs for all the wrong reasons and a failed attempt to recreate Ellen’s Oscar Selfie didn’t exactly help.

Hosts Simon Delaney and Laura Whitmore gathered a group of audience members together for the snap, much to the horror of the Twitter community.

It’s safe to say everyone saw it coming.

It was only a matter of time #IFTAselfie #cringe

But that didn’t mean they were ready for it.

Expectations for IFTA Selfie success weren’t high.

Which is probably a good thing considering the selfie never actually materialised on Twitter.

The only thing they managed to capture amid all the excitement was a picture of a large portion of Delaney’s forehead.

Yep. That’s the IFTA Selfie folks.
