Until recently, the watermelon video was the all-time leader in Facebook Live views, with about 10 million. That is until 37-year-old Candace Payne of Texas posted a video last week from the front seat of her car. By Monday, it had over 135 million views. Payne is unwrapping a box that says “Star Wars,” but she is hiding the rest from the camera. She is laughing and giggling. She can barely get the words out. At one point, she has trouble pronouncing “confiscate” because she is so excited to make the video showing off her new toy. What could it be that has her so excited? It turns out to be a Chewbacca mask from the Star Wars movies. Chewbacca is a wookie who is the partner of Han Solo, the pilot of the Millennium Falcon space ship. He is tall and furry like a dog. Chewbacca does not talk, he just makes different kinds of noises. The noise he makes is somewhere between a roar and a moan.
