The Brief: Doing the most means putting a lot of effort into something.
DEEP DIVE
The phrase carries a connotation of trying too hard. It is typically used to drag someone for appearing desperate for attention. Someone who is doing the most is extra.
The idiom can carry a note of positivity, though. Stans might use it to boast about their icon’s superior skills or efforts.
