The term 'Niche Internet Micro Celebrity' describes someone who is famous within a very specific, often eccentric, online community while remaining completely unknown to the general public. This trope gained traction on platforms like Twitter and TikTok, where users began humorously identifying as celebrities despite only having a few thousand followers. The meme highlights the surreal experience of having a 'fan base' that consists of the same few hundred people who interact with every post. It is commonly used to satirize the ego boost that comes from viral success in small subcultures, celebrating the weird, insular worlds of the modern internet.
