Mark Zuckerberg finally reveals reason behind his meme-worthy ‘too much sunscreen’ picture

“I noticed there was this paparazzi guy following us, and, so I was
like, ‘Oh, I don’t want him to recognise me, so you know what I’m gonna do? I’m just gonna put a ton of sunscreen on my face’,” Zuckerberg said. “And that backfired,” he said.

Well, clearly his mission to not be recognised failed as he was immortalised with memes. On a tongue-in-cheek note, he captioned the video saying: “As long as the world keeps turning, the memes keep churning,” tagging Tank Sinatra, who runs a popular good-news website.

He also added that as a pale-skinned person, he likes to wear lots of sunscreen to keep his skin healthy while swimming or indulging in water sports. Though the sunblock may have saved him from getting sunburns, he clearly had set social media on fire.

“If someone wants to post a sunscreen meme, it’s cool. I’m happy to give the internet some laughs,” he added.
