The internet can’t stop talking about American actress Blake Lively’s feet. It was her Canadian-born husband Ryan Reynold’s first time voting in America, so she posted a snap of both of them after the big moment on Instagram. It should have been Ryan’s time to shine in the spotlight, but Blake took all the glory as people noticed that her shoes looked a bit… off.
Amateur detectives quickly checked Ryan’s Instagram account and saw the same photo, but with Blake standing barefoot. The internet lost its mind for a minute there speculating just what was going on and why Blake photoshopped a pair of heels on her feet.

Most likely, Blake was having a bit of fun and was probably in on the joke, as you could tell from her Instagram stories and the fact that she even tagged footwear designer Christian Louboutin in them.
Either that or she was embarrassed about having gone voting barefoot. The most likely theory, however, she was just bored. Blake even jokingly called herself a “barefoot iPhone doodler with vast experience.”
Meanwhile, Blake and Ryan also posted another doodle where the actress was wearing a different pair of brown shoes and some people thought that the detail was great when considering that she was using an iPhone.
While talking about shoes is a lot of fun, the message that Blake and Ryan were trying to send to Americans was that they should go out and vote early. The US presidential elections are right around the corner, after all.
Nearly 40 million people have voted in the US as of the middle of this week and 20 percent of the votes cast are by those who didn’t vote 4 years ago, writes The Guardian. So far, Texas is leading in early voting with the number of ballots cast early standing at over 4.6 million (or half the state’s turnout in 2016).
And here’s how people reacted to Blake and Ryan’s Instagram posts and their stories
