Michael Jackson plus connu que le pain ? - CANAL+ (Clique TV)In MyMemeCards, the meme card game, “Michael more famous than bread” is a common card of the Memes FR pack, number 2114 of the collection, and the 753rd best-known meme of its 3515 cards. Here is what the meme means, where it comes from, and how to get its card.
What does the “Michael more famous than bread” meme mean?
The line pushes fame to its limit by comparing it to a food everyone knows. Calling an artist “more famous than bread” declares them universal. The humour comes from the gap between a sincere tribute to a pop icon and the humble image of a loaf. People use it to say, jokingly, that a person, a song or an object is known by all, or to poke fun at an obvious fact stated with great confidence.
Where does the “Michael more famous than bread” meme come from?
The line comes from Canal+’s show “Clique”, where rapper Naza says Michael Jackson is more famous than bread. A special Clique episode about Michael Jackson, posted by Clique TV, gathered several guests including Dinos, Naza, Mehdi Idir and Fally Ipupa to pay tribute to him. The extract in which Naza compares the star to bread was then clipped and recycled, notably in a video titled “Il est plus connu que le pain”, which calls the comparison incredible. The phrase has since become a shorthand for saying a celebrity is known by everyone.
