Zara Larsson knows her angles.
The Swedish pop star posted to TikTok on Wednesday, Feb. 18 to make a very serious plea to the public: Stop changing her Wikipedia photo.
"Whoever the f--- is changing this f---ing Wikipedia picture to this picture... Stop! Stop doing it, stop doing it" the 'Midnight Sun' singer, 28, pleaded in the hilarious video. "I'm being so real, cut it out."
The video shows Larsson combing through the Wikimedia Commons photo library in search of a better option. "Where's my nice picture? Can I disapprove these pictures?" said Larsson, before settling on one she liked.
(Editor's note: profanity in video below.)
Wikipedia pages can be edited by anyone, but changes must be approved by administrators. The main photo of public figures on the website is often subject to change.

Larsson says she is continuously editing her own page, updating the photo to the snap of her choice. "I will never stop. I will never stop changing that picture to a nice one, I will never stop," Larsson said.
The singer's preferred photo is a backstage shot of her during her 2025 Midnight Sun tour. The unflattering photo, according to the 'Pretty Ugly' singer, is a snap of Larsson at the Isle of Wright Festival in England in 2024.

"This is the one that I want, and this is the one we're gonna change to, and keep changing to forever." said Larsson about her photo of choice.
Despite her distaste for unflattering photos taken by others, the 'Lush Life' singer told PEOPLE last year that she likes to document her "ugly" moments.
"I take a lot of pictures of myself in the ugly moments, too, because I just love to compare," said Larsson. "I know that I will feel really ugly now, but give me an hour with a makeup brush or 12 hours of a good night's sleep, I know that I will feel beautiful again. Maybe not right now, but in the future. I don't know when, but it's going to happen. Let's document it."
