The **Left Shark meme** originated from Katy Perry’s **Super Bowl XLIX halftime show** on **February 1, 2015**. During her performance of *Teenage Dream*, two backup dancers dressed as sharks flanked her—but the **Left Shark** stood out by dancing offbeat and seemingly forgetting the choreography. Viewers quickly noticed the awkward yet hilarious performance, sparking viral memes and social media jokes. Left Shark became an internet sensation, symbolizing **carefree, unbothered energy** and **failing with confidence**. The meme led to merchandise, fan art, and even legal disputes when Katy Perry attempted to trademark Left Shark, cementing its place in internet history.
