Gather ’round, fashion nerds! MTV has a little style story for y’all. The tale begins in the wee hours of the morning when someone discovered something called the “Selfie-Hat” (which, surprisingly, is 100% unrelated to the Selfie Brush), and it quickly began to spread like wildfire across the internet.

What’s a Selfie-Hat, you ask? Well, according to Acer who created the hot pink, glittery chapeau, it’s a “sombrero style hat [that] spins 360-degrees and has an integrated Acer Iconia A1-840 tablet which enables struggling selfie takers to find their best angle.” Translation: Sorry, arms. YOU DONE. BYE.

As it turns out, the electronics brand collaborated on this high-fashion headgear with British designer Christian Cowan-Sanluis (that fresh-faced gentleman above) just in time for London Fashion Week. But we have to admit, the moment we peeped this hat, we were all, “Hmmmm, this looks very familiar.” So, we did some hardcore investigative journalism a quick Google search and found…

…that Lady Gaga has already worn this piece before! In March, she sported his entire fall 2014 pink tuxedo look (one we deemed a cross between Eliza Doolittle and Liberace), which means Mother Monster was wearing the now-infamous Selfie-Hat before it even was a Selfie-Hat. *head explodes*

The best part? Acer also released a limited-edition Iconia A1 case (a.k.a. a mini-me version of the hat) for your non-human tablet to match. No word on how much these bad boys cost yet, but we can say one thing for sure: We’re definitely looking forward to more Christian creations in the future.
