Hilarious 'Chewbacca Mom' shows serious side, to mixed reviews - CNET

Candace Payne became inteet-famous for a video capturing her infectious and eaest bout of laughter in a Chewbacca mask. Now "Chewbacca Mom" is back with a more serious and somber viral video that also has some laughing, but this time it's at her rather than with her.

Payne's unassuming Facebook Live video back in May launched her on that particularly meteoric and fleeting rise to fame that only the viral nature of the inteet can provide. She's been spotted on "Good Moing America" and riding in a minivan with James Corden and J.J. Abrams, among many other appearances.

But inteet fame is fickle. On Saturday, Payne went on Facebook Live to respond to the murder of five police officers at a Dallas march, protesting police brutality with a characteristically eaest and poignant rendition of Michael Jackson's "Heal the World."
