Internet meme

In 2008, Bottini was in a relationship with a stock photographer. While they were vacationing in Shanghai, she modeled for several of his photos, including one with her crying. In 2011, she found that the stock photograph of her crying was being used as an Internet meme, satirizing people who complain about "First World problems" (for example, "there's not enough dressing on my salad"). Bottini initially disliked the meme as trivializing her acting career, especially since she received no royalties from them. By 2019, she told BBC News that she had reconciled with her Internet fame, and was working on a short film about the "First World Problems" character.[11]

Bottini included the meme as part of her supporting documentation when applying for a U.S. extraordinary ability visa. Her application was successful.[12]
