The singer quote-tweeted her old 'What's fortnight?' tweet from 2019 in anticipation of her upcoming collaboration with the popular video game's 'Fortnite Festival.'

Some four and a half years ago, Lady Gaga wondered what this "fortnight" thing was that seemed to be taking the world by storm—and it looks like she finally found out.

In 2019, the singer posed the question to her followers on pre-X Twitter:


"What's fortnight?"

At the time, Fortnite was the highest-earning video game in the world...but how was she to know?

On Tuesday, however, it appeared the Grammy-winner not only had her question answered, but she also learned the game's correct spelling.

The "Bad Romance" singer quote-tweeted her old message, adding simply, "*fortnite."

The spelling correction accompanied an image of a Chromatica-inspired avatar, teasing a collaboration with the franchise's upcoming Fortnite Festival.

People on social media were pretty entertained that the tweet—and the correction—made its way back around nearly five years later.







And to say that fans are excited about this festival takeover is an understatement.





On Wednesday, Epic Games confirmed to The LA Times that Lady Gaga's reign at the Fortnite Festival will begin Thursday.

The spinoff rhythm game, a la Guitar Hero, will feature both the singer's style and music for its second chapter. Players can purchase two "skins" for their avatars as well as accessories like a guitar, a microphone and a keytar, and dancing emotes.

Lady Gaga's songs "Born This Way," "Rain on Me" and "Poker Face" will be featured as playable tracks. Players will also be able to perform their songs on a Chromatica-inspired stage.

The collaboration is set to end on April 22.

The heightened attention brought with it a lot of racist and colorist comments about their hair, their skin, and their bodies—especially Serena's more muscular and curvy body.
