American YouTuber Laina Morris was 20 years old when she first created the fictional character, “Overly Attached Girlfriend” — known for her clingy and stalkerish ways and parodying Justin Bieber‘s “Boyfriend” back in 2012.
Laina’s parody, titled on YouTube as “JB Fanvideo,” was a submission for a contest held by J Biebs himself. Her fixed smile and stare caught on quickly and became a viral meme. Today, the video stands at 21 million views.
“If I was your girlfriend, I’d drive you up the wall … question who you’re with, yeah’d I’d always call and call!”
