There’s not been an awful lot to celebrate in 2020, but the continued rise of the hun has meant that meme culture has thrived in lockdown.
Social accounts like Love Of Huns and Hunsnet on
Instagram have brought us much joy, as they’ve celebrated the ladies behind some of the most hilarious moments in the world of entertainment, relating their escapades to a number of everyday situations.
For the uninitiated, a hun usually describes someone who is always relatable and has an air of camp about them. In some cases, they ooze down-to-earth charm, in others they exercise their divaship. But what they all have in common is a naughty sense of humour, often coming out with ridiculous observations or anecdotes that make perfect soundbites. Their hun-ness may be conscious or unconscious, but essentially, they are low-key iconic in everything that they say and do.
In our own ode to the hunest huns to ever hun, we’ve complied 32 of their hunniest moments ever – so pour yourself a lovely glass of rosé and enjoy dallyns!1.
