* In ''PowerRangersDinoThunder'', the Rangers are watching international satellite TV and find that Japan has created a Power Rangers TV show. (The entire episode is a giant MythologyGag, as what they're watching is a dubbed version of ''BakuryuuSentaiAbaranger'', ''Dino Thunder'''s parent show.) Ethan and Kira enjoy it; Conner is upset that they turned the Rangers into a joke but he comes around. They're all confused about how the showrunners learned about their phrase [[ByThePowerOfGreyskull "Dino Thunder, Power Up"]], however.

* In [[http://scarygoround.com/sgr/ar.php?date=20060905 this scene]] from ''ScaryGoRound'', Shelley encounters obsessive fans of herself. [[CrowningMomentOfFunny It gets quite awkward]], especially when the guy named Harry starts to read out loud PurpleProse Shelley-fanfiction. (It sounds ambiguously erotic and involves ''MagicTheGathering''...) Shelley later comments that she has "looked terror square in its single, milky eye."

A SubTrope of RecursiveCanon and plays off of the CelebrityParadox.

* ''{{Supernatural}}'': In canon, Sam and Dean discover a man who has written out their entire lives and adventures. The author assumed they were fictional, naturally, leading into him thinking its a StrangerThanFiction tale, where he might've been causing these things to happen to them.

* ''AceAttorney'': In fanart form: [[http://i46.tinypic.com/2wg6g3m.jpg Here]]

* The ''OnePiece'' fanfic ''[[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3372337/1/Revenge Revenge]]'' is about the Straw Hats finding out about fan fiction and getting revenge. They go to fight a group of real fanfic authors lead by the author of the story. And in true One Piece style, most of the authors have Devil Fruits (or have a Devil Fruit enhanced object), one of them is a Fish Man and one is a Magical Girl... for some reason. A sequel was announced but unfortunately never written.

* One ''absolutely hilarious'' [[{{Batman}} Batman]] Fanfic affectionately parodied the Batman/Joker pairing, and it revolved around Batman, Batwoman, Robin, and Alfred all discovering that someone in Gotham was posting kinky, steamy, and downright ''dirty'' [[HoYay Batman]]/[[FoeYay Joker]] fanfic. TheTwist is that it's TheJoker himself who's posting it ForTheEvulz, though he states that [[EvenEvilHasStandards he hates the very idea]] of him and Batman getting together in ''that'' way.
* In FanFic/NobodyDies, due to the pilot identities being leaked and the creation of an in-universe anime, the pilots and staff are invited to Evacon '17. They attend a fanfiction panel:

** To be fair, in the manga, she did meet Kaoru, and knew he was her replacement. Just before she got {{mind rape}}d.
* Quentin Tarantino and Eli Roth both discovered all the fan fics and rule 34 of InglouriousBasterds, and were ecstatic about it. And decided to forward as many fanfics to their parents as possible. Before discussing how unrealistic they are, "Everyone knows that the Bear Jew is a [[IncrediblyLamePun pitcher, not a catcher.]]"

-->...They do know we're brothers, right?

-->-- '''[[{{Supernatural}} Sam and Dean Winchester]]''', "The Monster At The End Of This Book"

** They also actually find fanfics of them -- [[HoYay slashfics]], to be exact.

* The [[ptitlegm3tnwe7 Legion of Net.Heroes]] once dealt with a boy with telepathic powers who was accidentally broadcasting his LNH slashfic across the city.

* The {{Legion of Net.Heroes}} once dealt with a boy with telepathic powers who was accidentally broadcasting his LNH slashfic across the city.

* A Christopher Pike book used this. An author names his characters after his friends, and then the fanfics become canon (i.e., they happen in RealLife).

** Fanfic. Not so bad, but there's a story about how "Wedge and Corran are the best of friends. SLASH!" Corran doesn't know what slash is, does agree that he's good friends with Wedge, reads a few paragraphs, and gets pissed.

* ''ThisIsNotAGame'' by Walter Jon Williams is an original-fiction example. The protagonist is stranded in Indonesia when its currency collapses, causing rioting. She enlists the help of a bunch of alternate reality gamers to get her out, not all of whom believe it's really happening. As a gag gift, one of her friends later presents her with a bound copy of the Fan Fic some of these gamers wrote about her.

* In FanFic/NobodyDies, the pilots and staff are invited to Evacon '17. They attend a fanfiction panel:
--> "Well, there was the one writer who really thought Unit 01 was cute," Asuka says, and shudders, "And...tentacles? Did any story need those many tentacles? Not that he was a bad writer, he was actually fantastic-"
--> "But creepy," Misato adds, "And the guy in the cloak who kept insisting on being Rei's driving instructor. And those were the tame ones."
--> "Why was I having sex with Rei in every single one of them?" Shinji asks, "It was either me and Rei, me and Asuka, me and Mom-"
--> "Which is all sorts of wrong," Misato asks, "Especially that one the one guy wrote where you had a three way with your Mom and me."
--> "And I never met Mr. Nagisa!" Asuka yells, pounding her fist on the table, "Why would I want to have sex with him?"

* In {{NobodyDies}}
