    Pokémon Go is here, and nothing else matters. Or, to put it more dramatically, before there was Pokémon Go, there was nothing. Pikachu and his friends have taken the world by storm, and they're currently inhabiting Hollywood, land of the free, home of the brave. Which is a wordy way of saying celebs are just as obsessed with this game as you are. The only difference? They have way more cash to throw down on coinage.

    Because Bulbasaur's body is the ultimate wonderland. (Sorry.)

    Wiz Khalifa

    The man is clearly having an existential crisis.
