Leo Varadkar was caught out by the BeReal app after a group of teenagers requested he take a photo of them over the weekend.
The BeReal app works by sending out a notification asking people to immediately take a photo of themselves and the group they’re with, giving them just two minutes to upload the finished product. A notification is sent out to a person’s friends if they fail to upload in time.
Leo was approached by a group of teenagers in a Tullamore park who asked him to take their BeReal photo for them. The exchange was uploaded online, with the Tanáiste sounding confused at the request. He also inadvertently took a selfie of himself, as the app uses the front and back cameras simultaneously to document everyone involved in taking a photo.
