If you've been online for a long time, you likely know the exact meme I'm talking about already — Nicole, circa the early 2000s, wearing a pink top and seemingly yelling in the street. We can't host it directly due to licensing issues, but you can see it here.

For basically forever, the internet urban legend that's emerged around the photo is that it was taken shortly after Nicole finalized her divorce from Tom Cruise — which took place back in 2001.

In a recent interview with British GQ, a journalist mentioned the meme to Nicole herself — and her response may (nay, should!) change how you look at the photo moving forward.

“That was not me," she replied, presumably stating that the reaction captured in the photo wasn't her actual reaction to a real-life event. "That was from a film, that wasn’t real life. I know that image!”

When the journalist told her about how people believe that the photo was taken after finalizing her divorce, Nicole reportedly laughed and said, "That's not true."
