Okay, so this is kinda wild. You know how some things on the internet blow up and get way too much attention? Well, that’s exactly what happened with Leticia Sarda. For like four years, people on Reddit were obsessed with figuring out who she was, all because her face was printed on some curtains. Yup, curtains.
It all started in January 2020 when a Finnish Reddit user named TonstaH posted about these pop-art style curtains they bought from a local store. The curtains had eight celebrity faces on them, and people could name seven of them—Josh Holloway, Jessica Alba, Travis Fimmel, and others. But celebrity #6? Nobody knew who she was. That’s where all the mystery began.
The Internet Went Wild Over This
So, Reddit users got super into this mystery and even started a whole subreddit called r/CelebrityNumberSix just to figure out who this woman was. People were guessing like crazy—some thought it was a reimagined person, while others were sure it was a real model. A poll was made, and 65% of people thought it was a female model, while the rest thought it could be a dude. Pretty funny when you think about it, but they took it seriously.
Even after all that time, nobody could match the image. People compared her face to celebrities like Diane Kruger, Natasha Poly, and Shalom Harlow, but nothing fit.
Finally, the Mystery Was Solved
Fast forward four years, and boom! They finally figured out that celebrity #6 was a Spanish model named Leticia Sarda Tovar. She was even featured on the cover of Woman magazine in Spain. Her age and other personal details are still a mystery, but people guessed she might be in her mid-30s based on the pictures.
This huge breakthrough came from a Reddit user named StefanMorse, who used facial recognition software called Pimeyes to track down the image. The software suggested Leticia’s face, and then the community found a photographer, Leandre Escorsell, who confirmed that the picture was from a shoot he did for Woman magazine.
Escorsell was pretty surprised to see that his work had ended up on some random curtain without permission. He sent over more photos of Leticia, and it was all finally confirmed—it was her.
The Reddit Community Celebrates
This was a big deal for the Reddit community that had been working on the mystery for so long. People were celebrating like they’d just found the Holy Grail. Some users even got permission from the photographer to share all the info with everyone on the subreddit. It was kind of wholesome, seeing how much effort everyone put into solving such a niche mystery.
One Redditor summed it up perfectly by saying, “The amount of hours and energy so many have spent looking into this very niche subject is so sweet in a way.” Kinda cool, right?
