A year ago, Emma D’Arcy unwittingly boosted sales of an alcoholic beverage and its ingredients. If you’re not familiar with the situation, Max released a TikTok featuring House of the Dragon co-stars Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke. In the video, they discuss their favorite cocktails, and D’Arcy says, “Negroni, Sbagliato, with prosecco.” It went viral and became one of the most famous memes of 2022. However, she is not fond of the meme.
Emma D’Arcy didn’t like being in a meme
Despite the popular meme adding to their fame, D’Arcy hated the clip that went on to go so viral. During the recent photoshoot with EW, D’Arcy confessed: “I don’t have anything illuminating to say on it because it’s very hard to know how to react when you become a meme.”
Cooke explained, “We were just trying to make each other laugh. There’s no rhyme or reason to it. I did hate it for a very long time. I was in the pub. A woman opened the door for me and she said with a thick Spanish accent, ‘Stunnin’!’ I was just like, ‘Oh my God. Over a decade’s worth of work reduced to a single word in my lexicon.”
What is the Negroni Sbagliato meme?
In September of 2022, Max posted a TikTok video with House of the Dragon co-stars Emma D’Arcy and Olivia Cooke. In the video, they discuss their favorite cocktails, and D’Arcy states “Negroni, Sbagliato, with prosecco in it.” It soon spread and became one of 2022’s most popular memes.
