Fashion photographer Juergen Teller has been the talk of the town recently after W Magazine released a series of bizarre celebrity shots from its Best Performances series.
The celebrities are shown posing against a backdrop of a street in LA, surrounded by construction sites and litter, and the results appear quite unusual.
Alan Kim hangs off the luggage rack at the back of a station wagon, while Riz Ahmed, LaKeith Stanfield, and Taylour Paige awkwardly hang around a big tree.
Internet users have been dumbfounded by the shots, Teller’s work is now being turned into memes. To mimic what they believe is his photography style, people have been slapping hs name onto paparazzi shots and random stills from television shows.
Check out some hilarious parody images below.
