Redditor esmaycordelia explains what Ellen did:

I think it's making fun of the selfie culture that has taken so obviously over social media. Everyone takes selfies, so how does Ellen top it? She takes the most epic selfie possible (in that setting anyway). Ellen is really good at making fun of the concept of celebrity and getting people to be real (her show is hilarious). I think it is special because instead of seeing these celebrities uptight and full of themselves, we are seeing them goofing around. It's pretty refreshing, and it makes them more human."

For once, Simpsons did not do it first! This time, they were second.

Although Bart Simpson giving Meryl Streep rabbit ears is a first.

Homer is a metaphor for Leo:

In retrospect, the selfie came out surprisingly well for an unscripted live stunt:

Selfies at the Oscars are a tradition dating back to 1921:

Isn't that the final shot of "The Shining"?  :)

Holy smokes you're right!

And there's the theory that they weren't taking a selfie; they were watching Wolf of Wall Street:
