Emily Zugay and her whimsy
Emily Zugay of Grand Rapids redesigns famous logos with deadpan humor on TikTok. Her videos have been viewed more than 100 million times.
And that earned her an appearance Wednesday on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, MLive reports. “Emily, you’re hilarious,” DeGeneres said during the interview.
Her TikTok fame also earned her a shot at redesigning the Detroit Lions logo, which she replaced with just straight lines on a T-shirt and the name: Detriot Lines. The Lions are apparently offering the shirt at the team store. (See her TikTok video.)
They're here and they're glorious...get yours Sunday at the team store at @fordfield when the Detriot Lines take on the Bengals!

Zugay went to school for animation and now creates pet portraits, MLive says.
“Over time I picked up some lingo from being in critiques. I thought it would be funny to make it sound like I knew what I was talking about and pair it with awful logos,” she told DeGeneres.
