From holding a baseball bat on a plane to wearing Nike sneakers beneath his robes, Pope Leo XIV has brought more smiles to everyone's faces—and inspired more internet memes—than anyone probably expected.
Now, Pope Leo has gotten involved in one of 2026's most popular trends: the ever-evolving meaning of "six seven!"
The saying came from Skrilla's rap song "Doot doot," in which "six seven" is an insertion that carries no specific meaning. People, especially kids, have since used it in sentences as a point of exclamation, often out of extreme excitement or frustration, but the options are limitless.
While walking through the Vatican and greeting visitors, Pope Leo XIV stopped to greet a group of children who were leaning over the guardrail rope and clearly very excited to meet him.
The group must have coordinated their efforts in advance, because their guide or chaperone then encouraged them to wobble their hands up and down and say, "Six seven!"
The students did so, and while the Pope looked confused, he smiled at them and returned the gesture, to the applause and enthusiasm of the entire class, before moving on to greet other visitors.

While some viewers were annoyed by the trend, there was something fun about the Pope doing it.
This trend might not be everyone's cup of tea, but it's funny and important to the kids, and sometimes, the best way to connect with kids is to embrace the things that matter to them, even if we look silly saying or doing them.
Pope Leo learning and participating in this trend was not only funny to see but also shows how he welcomes everyone, regardless of where they are from and what their beliefs might be.
Hilariously for the rest of the world who may never get to meet him in real life, Pope Leo is quickly developing one of the funniest and most unexpected digital footprints of any religious figure ever!
Social media users had the same ominous biblical thought after a massive swarm of bees invaded the White House grounds on Friday, just weeks after First Lady Melania Trump added new bee colonies on the property.
The swarm of bees caused a stir after numerous black dots were spotted near the press corps’ Pebble Beach media area on the North Lawn. About 20 minutes later, the bees clustered into a hive on a nearby tree.
What triggered the swarm remains unclear, though the incident came just weeks after Mrs. Trump announced the addition of two new bee colonies to the White House’s existing hives. She also unveiled a replica White House beehive on the South Lawn, raising the possibility, jokingly, that the bees may have mistaken the actual White House for their new home.
Edward Lawrence, the White House correspondent for Fox Business, brought the swarm to the country's attention, sharing an image along with the following caption:
"The dots here are a swarm of bees on the North Lawn of the White House. There are thousands of them right now."
You can see his post and the photo below.

Bees aren't exactly locusts—symbols of judgment and total destruction in the Bible—but that didn't stop people from thinking the same thing.
The expansion of the bee colonies at the White House is expected to increase annual honey production by roughly 30 pounds, providing more honey for White House dishes, official gifts from the Trumps, and charitable donations to local food kitchens.
At peak summer capacity, the colony can grow to around 70,000 bees and produce as much as 225 pounds of honey each year. Funded through the Trust for the National Mall, the new hive also helps pollinate the nearby White House Kitchen Garden, Flower Cutting Garden, and vegetation throughout the National Mall.
If this means we can expect to see more random swarms making appearances, then we better get the rest of our dark omens straight while the Trumps are still in the White House.
For viewers who have spent years watching Anderson Cooper's reports on 60 Minutes, Sunday marked the end of an era. The longtime correspondent officially signed off from the CBS newsmagazine after nearly 20 years, sharing an emotional farewell as he looked back on his career and the family considerations behind his decision to leave.
The exit comes three months after Cooper, 58, announced he would be stepping away from the renowned television newsmagazine to spend more time with his children.
In a segment of 60 Minutes Overtime shared on YouTube, Cooper revisited his two decades with the program and became visibly emotional as he delivered his final "I'm Anderson Cooper" sign-off.
Explaining why the timing felt right to leave, Cooper said:
"My vacation time at CNN has been working on 60 Minutes pieces, and I've loved it. But it's been tough."
"I always imagined, like, 'OK, when I don't want to be in the daily-news grind, I'd love to just tell '60 Minutes' stories,' but when I had kids, the reality of having kids is different than anything you can kind of imagine.”
Cooper shares two children, Wyatt, 6, and Sebastian, 4, with his former partner Benjamin Maisani. During the farewell segment, he recalled filming in South Africa, when a colleague told him about the last time his son let him hold his hand on the walk to school—a memory that struck a personal chord.
Discussing the moment that helped put his priorities into perspective, Cooper said:
“I almost started to cry when he told me that because I'm in South Africa and my kid is going to school that day, and I'm not there."
"I've got a 4-year-old and a just-now 6-year-old. And I want to spend as much time with them as I can while they still want to spend time with me. And those days, that clock is ticking, I think."
Cooper joined 60 Minutes during the 2006–07 television season while continuing to anchor CNN's Anderson Cooper 360°, becoming one of the few journalists to hold prominent roles on both cable and network television. Over the years, he reported from conflict zones, covered major world events, and produced long-form stories for one of television's most respected news programs.
Despite his decision to move on, Cooper admitted the reality of leaving has yet to fully sink in:
"I don't think the reality has really hit me that I'm not gonna be doing this any longer. To give up something that you've watched since you were a kid, yeah, I will miss this.”
Cooper is not stepping away from journalism. He renewed his CNN contract in December 2025 and will continue anchoring Anderson Cooper 360°, hosting The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper, co-hosting CNN's annual New Year's Eve special alongside Andy Cohen, and producing his podcast focused on grief and loss.
Elsewhere in the farewell segment, Cooper highlighted some of his favorite assignments, from reporting in dangerous environments and diving alongside crocodiles to partially losing his eyesight while jet-skiing during an interview trip in Portugal.
Looking ahead, he expressed hope that 60 Minutes will continue to evolve without losing the qualities that made it a television institution.
Sharing his hopes for the future of the broadcast, Cooper said:
"There are very few things that have been around as long as '60 Minutes' has and maintained the quality that it has. Things can always evolve and change, and I think that's awesome. And things should evolve and change. But I hope the core of what '60 Minutes' is always remains."

Viewers wasted little time weighing in on Cooper's departure, with many taking to social media to reflect on his contributions to the long-running newsmagazine.
Take a look at the reactions below:
The program has faced heightened scrutiny in recent years, including the departure of longtime executive producer Bill Owens and Paramount's $16 million settlement of a lawsuit filed by President Donald Trump over edits to a 60 Minutes interview with former Vice President Kamala Harris. Paramount denied wrongdoing in the case.
During the segment, Cooper also underscored the importance of preserving the editorial independence that has long defined the program.
Emphasizing what he believes has been key to the show's success, Cooper said:
"I think the independence of 60 Minutes has been critical. And I think the trust it has with viewers is critical to the success of 60 Minutes."Cooper ultimately closed the segment by delivering his trademark "I'm Anderson Cooper" sign-off three times, pausing noticeably before the final attempt as he brought his nearly 20-year run on 60 Minutes to an emotional close.
There's nothing quite like seeing art recreated in life, especially when it feels like some of our favorite characters have stepped directly out of their TV show or film into our lives.
Last weekend, X user Matthew Ivan had one such experience as he was leaving the AMC Lincoln Square in New York City. As he was going down the escalator after seeing a movie, he witnessed something truly surreal at the ticket booth: two kids positioned on top of each other in a trench coat, attempting—and failing—to look like one person.
The person on top spotted Ivan filming and tipped their hat to him and waved before turning their attention back to their transaction.
You can catch the moment here:
Another person spotted the trench-coated figure from inside the movie theater.
The X user shared a screenshot of a conversation they'd had the night before with a friend who sent them the picture, claiming it was "100% real" and very NYC. Their friend called the figure "Vincent Adultman," a reference to the adult cartoon BoJack Horseman.
And one person even caught the moment up close!
The video is especially hilarious because the kid on top is wearing a black bowler hat and a large, fake mustache while their long, silky hair is visibly flowing up around the trench coat collar.
The trench coat is visibly bulging where the second person's head must be, and the feet of the person on top are visible below the trim of the coat, displaying cute black and white flats. The coat is also very bunched up in the back, showing the colors of the second person's outfit.
While the point of this look is to conceal the second person and make the top person look taller, the kids' hilarious fail makes this whole outfit that much more fun.
A few viewers asked the important questions.
Some were reassured that the kids are going to be alright.
Most were just left cackling over the bit.
Most importantly, viewers were rooting for those two to see the show, whichever one it was.
We may never know what movie these two were attempting to see, or if they were successful, but they were obviously having a great time and creating laughs for other people, which is more important than ever these days!
Following a report that FBI Director Kash Patel flew his girlfriend on an FBI jet to see a George Strait concert, California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked him by giving him an apt new nickname.
According to The New York Times, which cited flight records, Freedom of Information Act documents, and interviews with more than a dozen current and former FBI and law enforcement officials, Patel has frequently combined official travel with personal trips involving his girlfriend, country singer Alexis Wilkins.
The Times also reported that Patel and Wilkins flew on an FBI Gulfstream jet to Philadelphia for a concert featuring George Strait and Chris Stapleton, where they watched the show from a private suite estimated to cost between $35,000 and $50,000. According to the paper, Patel declined to disclose who paid for the suite.
In response to a post from liberal podcaster Brian Allen about the Times report, Newsom spun the name of former FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover with the following dig at Patel:
"Why are taxpayers paying to fly J. Edgar Boozer’s girlfriend around in a private jet? WASTE, FRAUD, ABUSE!"
You can see his post below.
People loved it—and criticized Patel themselves.
Patel has faced criticism for months about his activities on and off the clock.
Last year, Patel lashed out at the "pathetic reports" that he used a government jet to fly to watch Wilkins perform at a wrestling event, saying that "going after the people doing great work, my personal life, or those around me is a total disgrace."
The news of Patel's use of the government jet also came as news outlets reported that Patel fired a longtime FBI employee who was head of the FBI’s Critical Incident Response Group, which is responsible for managing major security threats and overseeing the agency’s fleet of aircraft.
Patel complained that "we will not be distracted by baseless rumors or the noise from uninformed internet anarchists and the fake news" but did not address the report, first published by The Bulwark, alleging that he used a government jet to attend his partner’s performance.
Nor did he mention reports that Steven Palmer—the FBI veteran he'd fired—was forced out after Patel grew frustrated over the intense media scrutiny.
