On Sunday more than 40 world leaders participated in the anti-terror march in Paris in a bold show of international unity.
Former French president Nicolas Sarkozy, who is seen as a contender for the next presidential election, managed to secure for himself a front-row spot.
Soon the hashtag #JeSuisNico, a riff on #JeSuisCharlie (translated as "I am Charlie" to honor the slain Charlie Hebdo staffers), was trending on Twitter.
And that meant photoshopping Sarkozy muscling his way into other historic moments.
The fifth Beatle?
