Queen Elizabeth II and Prince George were subjected to the Snapchat “face swap” treatment.

The two were featured on a set of stamps amid the Queen’s 90th birthday. The Royal Mail commemorated the day by releasing the stamps, which are the first to ever feature Prince George.

However, some social media users swapped their faces, and the results worked well. Too well, in fact.

Some said the Prince George looked a bit like “Fargo” and “Boardwalk Empire” actor Steve Buscemi or even David Bowie.

CNN royal commentator Victoria Arbiter, who grew up around the royal family because her father was a press secretary to Queen Elizabeth commented on her birthday.

“She’s doing engagements in Windsor on her birthday,” Arbiter told USA Today. “She has provided the single greatest blueprint of any other monarch. She is a study of how it’s done, in every capacity—she is a study in how to be queen.”
