New Disney animated movie Zootopia included a bit about selfies and although performed by Shakira whilst in her character of Gazelle, the song Try Everything is co-written by Sia.
As Zootopia included selfies it is notable to point out that Sia's Chandelier was performed by Karen Gillan in Selfie 1.10 Imperfect Harmony.

Elementary 4.20 Art Imitates Art involves a selfie being key evidence in the case of this episode. Just as the Selfie TV series starred the redhead Karen Gillan, this Elementary episode about a selfie as a key plot point also feature a redhead, that of Lauren Culpepper, albeit briefly.

Discovered here in Australia that July 21 2016 marked the release in cinemas of the 50th anniversary restoration of My Fair Lady. Although release in 1964, My Fair Lady did not get theatrical release in Australia/New Zealand until July 21 1966.
My Fair Lady is based on the 1912 play Pygmalion and the said 50th anniversary restoration release of My Fair Lady came on the same day of the release of Star Trek Beyond featuring John Cho and Cho was one of the stars of the short-lived Selfie, the TV series that was inspired by Pygmalion/My Fair Lady.

The 13th episode and season 1 finale of The New Avengers is Three-Handed Game and I was reminded on The Avengers Forever site that Mike Gambit posed naked for a female sculptor Helen.
""Mike", Helen groans, "take your clothes off.""
Coincidentally enough the 13th episode and series finale of Selfie, I Woke Up Like This had a clip of series regular Karen Gillan getting naked in an elevator. This clip came from episode 9 Follow Through and it was included as moments for Selfie for the viewer to look back on as the series came to an end as Selfie unlike The New Avengers did not get a second season.

Today I saw the Greek season 2 finale At World’s End and had Casey (Spencer Grammer, a woman) falling into a manhole. This episode was shown in 2009 and curiously enough five years Selfie 1.2 Un-Tag My Heart in 2014 presented the exact same situation when Eliza (Karen Gillan) also fell into a manhole!

Saw Private Eyes 1.7 Karaoke Confidential and Selfie also had karaoke in its own first (and only) season in 1.10 Imperfect Harmony in which the beautiful Karen Gillan did memorable singing with her rendition of Chandelier.

The eighth Justice League Action animated webisode is Selfie Help! In which the Space Cabbie is willing for the Super Heroes to pay for his fare in the form of selfies with him.
The title of this webisode of course makes me think of the short-lived Selfie series starring Karen Gillan.
In fact the Space Cabbie is voiced by Patton Oswalt and he and Karen have substantial roles in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Karen played Nebula in the Guardians of the Galaxy movies and Oswalt appeared as three identical Koenig brothers in multiple episodes of Agents of S.H..E.L.D. which has Karen’s Not Another Happy Ending co-star Iain De Caestecker as a regular cast member.

In Selfie 1.10 Imperfect Harmony released on my birthday December 9 2014 employees of KinderKare Pharmaceuticals sang karaoke as it is a company event. The boss of Kindercare Pharmaceuticals was Sam Saperstein played by David Harewood. In the latest Supergirl episode Schott Through the Heart which came on April 16 2018 the employees of the DEO were also singing karaoke and the boss of the DEO is J'onn J'onzz / Martian Manhunter and he is also played by Harewood.
So Harewood got to be the boss of two companies holding a karaoke event.

Selfie 1.8 Traumatic Party Stress Disorder referenced Edge of Tomorrow and the antepenultimate episode Perestroika referenced Boxing Helena.
Both referenced movies featured Bill Paxton. Paxton sadly died at the early age of 61 in 2017. His final work was the movie The Circle (2017) which was released posthumously and incidentally given how these remarks started it also featured Selfie star Karen Gillan who as Eliza Dooley referenced the said Paxton movies in the aforementioned Selfie episodes.

Young Hercules 1.35 My Fair Lilith, aired on February 1 1999, as indicated in the episode title is a take on My Fair Lady. Prior to herself being given the My Fair Lady treatment, Lilith (Jodie Rimmer) suggested a red-haired bard girl for this. This red-haired barbed girl was not seen in this episode but kind of prescient to the red-haired Karen Gillan later starring in the My Fair Lady/Pymaglion inspired series Selfie starring Karen as Eliza Dooley. Incidentally Young Hercules was played by Ryan Gosling and he was later in the movie The Big Short (2015) which also had brief appearances by Karen.

Saw the movie Step Brothers (2008) featuring Gillian Vigman and Brian Huskey.
Both of them would later be in the Selfie pilot.
However for Vigman it was a one-off appearance in the series while Huskey would appear in eight more episodes as the recurring character of Larry.

Saw the TV movie Summer in the City (2016) because I like its star Julianna Guill. Among her previous work was as Eliza Dooley’s (Karen Gillan) old high school nemesis Corynn McWatters in the Selfie finale I Woke Up Like This.
Curiously enough Summer In The City also featured Natasha Henstridge and she too was also in Selfie. She was in three episodes playing Yazmin Saperstein in Pilot, Even Hell Has Two Bars & Never Block Cookies but not in the said finale with Julianna.
Despite being high school enemies in Selfie, Summer In The City provided Julianna to have things in common with Karen. Summer In The City has Julianna playing the manager of a clothing store and expert on fashion in Manhattan. Karen was in the same territory in both fashion and Manhattan. Karen was in the 2008 pilot Stacked which is set in the world of fashion. With Manhattan, Karen was in two narratives that was set in this city as she starred in the TV movie We’ll Take Manhattan and later she sang her Doctor Who swansong with the similarly named The Angels Take Manhattan.

Saw the animated Guardians of the Galaxy episode Darkhawks on the Edge of Town.
With the word edge in the episode title makes me think of the movie Edge of Tomorrow and Karen Gillan who played Nebula in the Guardians of the Galaxy movie referenced Edge of Tomorrow in Selfie 1.8 Traumatic Party Stress Disorder.
