The 67th Grammy Awards on Sunday night were full of surprises, but one moment stole the show. No, it wasn’t a wardrobe malfunction. Travis Scott was dancing to Kendrick Lamar’s diss track about Drake. As expected, the internet went crazy.
The Grammys: A Night of Wins, Music, and Unexpected Dance Moves
The biggest names in music got together at the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles for an unforgettable night. But besides the amazing performances and moving speeches, what really got people talking was Taylor Swift’s response to Kendrick Lamar’s big wins.
Lamar won Song of the Year and Record of the Year for his diss song about Drake called “Not Like Us.” Right after the song started playing, Taylor Swift started showing off her moves, and the internet went crazy. Several videos of her grooving in the crowd went viral very quickly on X (formerly known as Twitter), getting hundreds of thousands of views.
Twitter (x) Reacts: “it’s Officially Over For Drake”
The moment was perfectly captured in a video shared by @TayvisHaze and then shared again by @destroynectar. In a stunning dress, Swift could be seen dancing with such passion to the beat of “Not Like Us” that her fans were left shaking.
Drake’s diss tracks don’t sound good now, but @taylorswift is dancing to Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us,” which won Record of the Year.
The post had been seen more than 252,800 times when this was written. What did they say? Worth a lot.
- “She’s been cool since the show began.” “She is a nice woman.”
- “Drakon’s time is up for good.”
- “Taylor’s moving like she’s on the remix,” someone said.
- “Kendrick won the Grammy, AND Taylor Swift liked it?” LMAO, Drake is probably punching the air somewhere.
At the same time, @chartstswift shared the video, which got over 237,000 views. Following Kendrick Lamar’s win, Taylor Swift was seen dancing to “Not Like Us.”
A History Of Swift And Lamar
This may seem like just another viral moment, but there’s more to it than meets the eye. Swift and Lamar have been friends since 2015 when Lamar was on Swift’s hit song “Bad Blood.” The collaboration was a huge hit, giving Swift her 4th No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and giving Lamar his first No. 1 ever.
And Then There’s The Drake Connection.
One of the most talked-about beefs in rap history is between Drake and Lamar. And Swift was right in the middle of it, whether she meant to be or not. When Drake’s song TaylorMade Freestyle came out in April, it mentioned her and even made it sound like Lamar wasn’t responding to his insult because Swift’s album The Tortured Poets Department was coming out that same week.
“But now we have to wait a f****** week because Taylor Swift is your new top. If you’re going to drop, she has to agree. This girl is really going to make you act like you’re not fighting.”
Of course, Kendrick didn’t let the chance go by. He then put out Not Like Us on May 4, and it quickly became a hit. The song made serious accusations against Drake, saying that he was not telling the truth. After a while, that song won a lot of awards at the Grammys. Taylor Swift was there and happily danced along.
Super Bowl Rumors: Will Swift Join Lamar On Stage?
Swift’s dance moves at the Grammys caused a stir, and now there are rumors that she might show up at the Super Bowl.
Lamar will perform at halftime of the Kansas City Chiefs vs. Philadelphia Eagles game in New Orleans on February 9. As far as we know, this is the first time that a solo rapper has ever been the main act at the Super Bowl halftime show.
But Will Swift Join Him?
Props.com recently did an analysis that says there is only a 5% chance that Swift will show up out of the blue. Fans are still holding out hope because she has been close to Lamar for a long time.
In a press release, Scott Krones, general manager at Props.com, said, “All eyes were on Taylor and Travis at the Super Bowl last year, and it looks like the hype will continue this year.” But, unlike last year, Kendrick Lamar’s halftime show has a well-known working relationship with Taylor Swift, which has led many to believe that she may be more likely to show up out of the blue.
There is one certain thing: if Taylor Swift does show up at the halftime show, the internet will go crazy.
The Final Verdict: Just Taylor Being Taylor
In the end, Taylor Swift’s dance to Kendrick Lamar’s Grammy wins wasn’t just a funny video that went viral; it was a statement. Fans loved it, whether she was just listening to music or trying to pick a side in the never-ending Drake vs. Kendrick saga.
One thing is for sure: Taylor Swift can make any moment go viral like no one else. What about Drake? Let’s just say that a lot of people on the internet think he took another L.
What do you think? Was Swift just messing around, or was this a well-thought-out plan? We’re here for it either way.
