What the two other replies have neglected to mention as the cool side-effect of light affecting the curvature of spacetime despite being massless is that it’s theoretically possible to make a black hole out of nothing but light. The concept is called a “Kugelblitz”, en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kugelblitz_(astrophysics)
