See Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s Stone-Faced Selfie
The Notorious R.B.G. is 'mean-muggin.'
— -- Justice Ginsburg dissents…from smiling.
Democratic leader Nancy Pelosi snapped a selfie with the ladies of the Supreme Court at her annual Women’s History Month reception Wednesday, but not even a sappy Instagram filter could soften the Notorious R.B.G.
While Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan smiled obligingly, 82-year-old Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg – known on social media as “Notorious R.B.G.” – remained remarkably stone-faced.
Considering R.B.G. is an O.G. (that’s original gangster, for all you non-90's rap fans), it’s perhaps not surprising that she’d “mean-mug” in a selfie.
While the group photo, taken in Pelosi’s office on Capitol Hill, may not break the Internet, the “Supreme selfie” is generating some buzz in part from Ginsburg’s stoic expression.
Ginsburg, Sotomayor, Kagan and retired Justice Sandra Day O’Connor are the only female Justices in U.S. history.
