The meme in question showed screenshots of Zayn Malik and Louis Tomlinson in a One Direction music video and was captioned, “when you move and the snapchat filter comes off.”

One Direction and Louis Tomlinson stans came for Eilish on Twitter, using the hashtags #billieeilishisoverparty and #welovelouis.

“Bigger sh*t going on but y’all got distracted by something so small. It’s social media. A meme. It’s never that deep. Just stop,” another Twitter user said.
