Fame comes with ups and downs, and for some celebrities, strangers taking pictures of them wherever they go could be one of those downs. For Cole Sprouse, he's turned it into a bit of a game, and when he notices someone about to take a sneaky snap, he takes a picture of them first. The Suite Life of Zack and Cody star has an entire Instagram page dedicated to what he calls "Camera Duels" and it's amazing.
© GettySprouse's Instagram account is a hit with over 4.7 million followers. "This Instagram is dedicated to the people out there who secretly take photos of me, and how I take photos of them first. May the fastest camera win," he wrote in the bio. The page is absolutely hilarious and shows the diverse range of people who will snap photos of him.
From men and women over 50, airport workers, Subway patrons, to children, it seems like everyone has tried to snap a photo of the famous twin. It has 73 posts and began on August 3, 2012, but he stopped posting on the account on June 9, 2023. That was until this year.
He made his first post in two years on June 2, with a long caption explaining why he came back. "In honor of our rapidly accelerating surveillance state, I figured- what better time to bring back my own little digital diary documenting my descent into paranoid schizophrenia?" he began, "You’re all gunna be just like me soon! Let’s at least hope we’re all hot enough for the fbi agents in our phones to get a solid goon in," he continued.
The photo was of a shirtless man on the beach smiling, almost posing for Cody. "Yes of course I saw the camera, but what is only partly visible here is the adidas Speedo holding like atlas just underneath HIS wet and glistening belly. The silhouette of a 50+ shivering meatus jailed behind a small layer of hypebeast panties is not the view I wanted during the aperol spritz, but it’s Europe baby," he wrote.
His most recent post came two days ago and came with another long hilarious caption. "Long gone are the days where a young man could tuck into a cozy cafe covered in comic sans and order a mid cappuccino from a barista with ear gauges. Those days are gone because of ladies like this. The flash, a previously stated signal of amateurism, cuts through the liminal atmosphere like a hot butter knife," he wrote.
The comments on the posts are hilarious, "Chat GPT could never roast as beautifully and eloquently as Cole Sprouse," one user wrote. "Is this account being back a sign of a recession indicator?" another added. So next time you think about snapping a picture of Sprouse, just remember you might end up losing in a camera duel, and getting roasted on his page.
