The meme itself stems from a particular scene in which Derek and his model friends go on a Jeep ride through downtown while sipping on Orange Mocha Frappuccino (a fictitious Starbucks drink) to cheer themselves up.</p> <h2>Origins</h2> <p>The earliest parody of Zoolander Dance scene was uploaded in November 2005 as a <span class="caps">YTMND</span> site titled <a href="http://zoolanderwil.ytmnd.com/">What is Zoolander Love?</a>, which featured the original jeep ride scene with Haddaway’s “What is Love” as BG music. Quite reminiscent of YTMND’s megameme <a href="http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/what-is-love">What is Love</a>, a handful of related YTMNDs followed suit, featuring other icons superimposed over the actors.</p> <h2><span class="caps">YTMND</span> Compilations/Remixes/Parodies</h2> <ul> <li><a href="http://zoolanderwil.ytmnd.com/">What is Zoolander Love</a></li> <li><a href="http://ZoolanderBestDay.ytmnd.com/">Zoolander’s Best Day Ever</a></li> <li><a href="http://zcr.ytmnd.com/">Zoolander’s Car Ride</a></li> <li><a href="http://ftspbr.ytmnd.com/">David Lynch Approves of Drunk-Driving</a></li> <li><a href="http://razorhead.ytmnd.com/">David Lynch Approves of This Message</a></li> <li><a href="http://nintendoolander.ytmnd.com/">Nintendoolander</a></li> <li><a href="http://orangemochafrappuccino.ytmnd.com/">Orange Mocha Frapuccino</a></li> </ul> <h2>UK Football Lulz</h2> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/XH_BoxsQ7MY&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/XH_BoxsQ7MY&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p> <p>Zoolander Dance also spawned a football meme in the UK communities when YouTube user <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/yourma2000">yourma2000</a> uploaded a new rendition of the same scene with celebrity players from Liverpool FC (English Premier League). Set to Rihanna’s 2007 hit <em>Don’t Stop The Music</em>, this version featured the team captain Steven Gerrard behind the wheels (who was involved in a <a href="http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1564838/Steven-Gerrards-Bentley-collides-with-boy.html">low-speed collision</a> the previous year) and three other players, Jamie Carragher, Ryan Babel and Fernando Torres. It became an instant lulz among UK-based viewers and a series of response videos emerged throughout 2008. It is ranked #85 most favorited video in UK Sports category [as of October 2009].</p> <p>Liverpool FC feat. head manager Rafael Benítez:</p> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/5eNVwH-ZCpQ&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/5eNVwH-ZCpQ&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p> <p>Arsenal FC version feat. head manager Arsene Wengers:</p> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_97AygQCIsU&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_97AygQCIsU&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p> <p>Carragher, Arbeloa, Alonso, Torres & Gerrard doing The Chippendales from TV show Britain’s Got Talent:</p> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/H4ag0mGK60M&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/H4ag0mGK60M&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p> <p>Everton FC version of Zoolander Dance:</p> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/_SjSx3oKnzE&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/_SjSx3oKnzE&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p> <p>Zoo’rolled:</p> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/0VbbKarH_1U&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/0VbbKarH_1U&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p> <h2>Trend</h2> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.gmodules.com/ig/ifr?url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com%2Fig%2Fmodules%2Fgoogle_insightsforsearch_interestovertime_searchterms.xml&up__property=empty&up__search_terms=zoolander+dance%7Czoolander+jeep%7Czoolander+gif&up__location=empty&up__category=0&up__time_range=empty&up__compare_to_category=false&synd=ig&w=700&h=350&lang=en-US&title=Google+Insights+for+Search&border=%23ffffff%7C3px%2C1px+solid+%23999999&output=js"></script><h2><span class="caps">IRL</span> Parodies</h2> <p>Typically set to Wham’s 1984 hit single “Wake Me Up Before You Go-go,” the Jeep ride scene has been parodied by other YouTube users in real life as well.</p> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/atXRFzYkfcY&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/atXRFzYkfcY&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/kfVfcDhbD9E&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/kfVfcDhbD9E&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p> <p><object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/wR7tg2M6eK0&hl=en&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/wR7tg2M6eK0&hl=en&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object></p>
