Michael Bublé Goes Full Minion Mode In Hilarious New Post

In this post, once the whole world was laughing and asking for their very own mini Michaels, Michael Bublé claimed to be at “a whole new level of self importance.” The crooner posted a video or photo, showing what looked like dozens of miniature Michael Bublés lined up like an army of cute little men, with a caption filled with Minions references and hashtags hinting that Michael has accepted his inner supervillain.

That level of commitment extends to the video transcription as he does the line, “‘Minions! Tonight we steal the moon!’” perfectly in Gru’s voice. That dedication, in addition to his velvety voice, is what endears the Canadian singer to all.

Comments followed within seconds, and one user put out there what everyone was thinking, “Another reason why I love you 😂❤️.” The comment thread flowed between admiration and pleading (some said, “I wanna one 😂 please”) with others asking if the little guys were signed memorabilia.

International support came by, with one Spanish-speaking user heralding, “¡Cómo que eres divertido!!!” Meanwhile, a user from Australia posted not less than three separate comments with emoji love declarations, all proclaiming, “what sense of humour MICHAEL ❤️.” There was plenty of love in the air, but concerningly, a user appeared to think that Bublé was being held hostage – proof that some fans really take things way too seriously, even if in jest.

What made this work so well was how close it hit Bublé’s public persona-the man who can lay down a heart-wrenching Christmas ballad one moment and go for something absurd the next. The juxtaposition of talent and willingness not to take himself seriously allows him to stay relevant through generations.

Funny enough, these antics appear as hype grows for Season 28 of The Voice, where Bublé shares coaching duties, and viral moments like these remind casual viewers what makes him so great to watch beyond just the music resume. So, from the Minions bit and basically everything he’s been up to on social media, he’s the one who’s disturbed the serenity of “mom’s favorite crooner” and painted himself into being “that crazy king who might actually try to steal the moon.”

While some stars will never again be able to act in keeping with the taste of music as it changes, Bublé seems to be following straight down the corridor of any weird thought that crosses his mind. Whether he is dressing as a giant Christmas present or mass-producing miniatures of himself, he has figured out what being a celebrity today truly means-being talented, but equally being somebody whom people desperately want to see what he is going to do next.

The humorous aftereffects of this attracted some really creative remarks, one asking for a “Michael labublé labubu” (whatever that is), while another thanked him for the “living room wall decor inspiration.” Now, completely joking aside, the idea of having an army of tiny Bublés is extremely fascinating: this starts to seriously explain why somebody actually wants this as home decor.

And this is why Michael Bublé is one of the most bizarre figures of popular music-the man could throw out another Christmas album tomorrow and no one’s really going to pay him any attention amidst the chaos. We’re much better for it.
