Remember that time at the 2014 Oscars when Ellen DeGeneres, Bradley Cooper, and a bunch of other huge stars broke the Internet with their selfie? Well, more than a year and a half later, Bradley and Ellen rehashed the hilarious backstory behind the most retweeted photo of all time. Bradley made an appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Monday, and as it turns out, the selfie wasn't Ellen's plan all along, and Bradley technically "ruined" her joke. The misunderstanding, of course, led to a different — albeit beautiful and epic — outcome. Get the full story in the video above, then watch Ellen try to cook with Bradley's arms.
