Chewbacca Mom is Having a Week for the Ages!
Candace Joy, better known as ‘Chewbacca Mom,’ is absolutely crushing it this week, and the internet is here for it! This delightful mom became an overnight sensation when her Facebook Live video garnered a jaw-dropping 144 million views. What was the star of the show doing? Just laughing hysterically at herself while sporting a Chewbacca mask she treated herself to for her birthday! It’s no wonder—her infectious joy has made her a beloved figure online.
Things got even more exciting when Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg posted photos of Candace’s visit to the Facebook headquarters in California. “We invited Candace Joy — whose Chewbacca mask video received 141 million views and is now the most-watched Facebook Live video ever — to come by Facebook HQ today,” he shared. And guess what? She got to bike around with Chewbacca himself! Not too shabby for a day at work, right?
But that’s not all. Right after her viral fame hit, Kohl’s (where she snagged that iconic mask) showered her family with a mountain of Star Wars-themed gifts and $2,500 in gift cards. “Candace made the Internet’s day, so we wanted to make hers,” read the message alongside a photo of Candace and her family beaming with their new treasures, Chewbacca masks included!
Her Facebook page has turned into a treasure trove of fun moments from her epic week. If you missed her on The Late Late Show with James Corden, you’re in for a treat—she joined James for a hilarious carpool karaoke session, and even Star Wars director J.J. Abrams dropped by to give her some tips on maximizing her Chewbacca mask experience.
Honestly, can we keep Candace around forever? Maybe Kohl’s should consider making her their new spokesperson, or she could totally host her own talk show! Whatever happens, we just can’t get enough of her!
