When Zoom first hit the video chat scene many moons ago, I had no idea how large a part of my life it would become. Now, I've been Zooming all day, every day for the past year and a half or so, and I rely on funny zoom backgrounds to make the experience a little more ~fun~. Granted, there's nothing fun about having to distance from others and work from home to avoid catching a virus, but hey! We were out here doing out best we could to make a bad situation a little more bearable, and these funny backgrounds were here to help.

There's no denying that the appeal of constantly video-chatting your friends or having a Zoom meeting every single morning has lost its novelty now that most of us have been social-distancing for over a year—but there are ways to make it more enjoyable and these funny backgrounds are a great start. Now that the vaccine is being distributed, these might even be some of your last Zoom calls ever, so make them count with a good background you'll remember!

If you didn't know you could change your background on Zoom, then honey, it's time to step into the future. It's easy to do, and you should definitely be doing it! Anyone can change their video's background, and while you can opt to use the handful of backgrounds Zoom provides, you might find that they're, well, boring. Wouldn't you rather use a funny Zoom background to make your friends laugh or give your co-workers a chuckle during a long meeting? I thought so. All you have to do is save the image of your choice to your computer, and Boom! An incredible background option is born. You can Google search for options to your heart's content, or you can save one of the 45 backgrounds on our list below. Obviously, we recommend the latter.

The backgrounds on this list are references to your favorite shows, from Spongebob Squarepants to The Office to Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Of course, there's also movie backgrounds, from High School Musical to White Chicks to Twilight (yep, even Twilight). Then, there are some iconic celeb moments, with everyone from the Kardashians fist-fighting to Rihanna grinding on Drake to Demi Lovato in a parachute. Honestly, what more could you ask for?

Allow me to let you in on a little secret. The key to a truly funny zoom background? It's all about going for something unexpected. While you might want your office or vacation background to look realistic and convince your friends it's legit, funny backgrounds should intentionally radiate some ~hot mess energy~, if you know what I'm saying. Your background should have all the ambiance of the Jersey Shore house, all the iconic energy of Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie in a The Simple Life episode, and all the unexpected wonder of Cardi B eating a mango on Instagram Live.

If you haven't guessed, all the above examples and more made the cut when we narrowed down our favorite funny zoom backgrounds. What started as a list of 15 or so grew to 20, 30, 40 and now 45. Feel free to peruse and save a few to spice up your usual Zoom sesh. Oh, and we won't even make you tell your friends you found them from this article. Just pretend your genius brain thought them up all on its own, and accept their praise like the Natural Comedian you are. Your secret is safe with us, babe.
