Emojis are enormously popular worldwide, with the most frequently used icon being the face crying with laughter, but what is the story behind these ubiquitous pictograms?
We're all familiar with the smiley face, the grinning cat and the guy with the dodgy 'tache. Emojis reveals the secret with a series of hilarious interviews and exposes with some of the most popular icons from the social media scene. Did you know, for example, that the couple in love emoji is now actually embroiled in a bitter divorce after he cheated on her with the princess icon? Or that in a past life the smiley with the crosses for eyes was the model for the famous Nirvana logo of the early 90s? You do now! Along with these eye-opening tales, you will also meet the pictograms that the developers never wanted you to see, like the drunk emoji, the punk cat with the Mohican or the bearded hipster smiley with thick-rimmed glasses. And if that's not enough, there's a fun guide to the best films, books, albums and more described for you only in the language of the emoticon!
