A resurfaced video from Swift's 2011 Speak Now World Tour stop in Atlanta has fans of the two singers cheering after their reunion of sorts at the Super Bowl.

Make us preferred on Google

Immediately after Kansas City clinched their spot in this year's Super Bowl, fans of Taylor Swift and her KC tight end beau Travis Kelce wondered if the singer would make it to Las Vegas in time for kickoff after performing in Tokyo the night before.

Once they caught their first glimpse of the star at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday, however, they had yet another query: Would she make a surprise appearance during Usher's halftime show?


While the "Nice & Slow" singer did have quite the lineup of superstars—we're talking Alicia Keys, H.E.R., Jermaine Dupri, Lil Jon, Ludacris—joining him onstage, Swift enjoyed the show from her suite.

But leave it to the internet to bring the two together on Super Bowl Sunday, anyway.

A resurfaced clip of Usher performing with Taylor Swift some 12 years ago has taken the internet by storm, and fans just cannot get enough.

Swift was in Atlanta for her 2011 Speak Now World Tour when she brought Usher out on stage and performed his hit "Yeah!" with him.

You can watch their performance below.

After the performance, Usher deemed Swift “crunk for real," telling Yahoo! Music:

“In Atlanta, she came out. She did her thing."
"I didn’t know she and hip-hop swag like that. She came out and they enjoyed it."

And now, 12 years later, the rest of the world is enjoying it, too!

Tech Billionaire Goes Viral For Bonkers Claim That Being Evil Can Actually Be 'Kind Of Good' In Cringey Viral Clip

While everyday Americans are watching the cost of seemingly everything eat away at their bank accounts, the billionaire class continues operating in an entirely different financial multiverse.

Now, tech billionaire Peter Thiel has apparently found another luxury afforded by extreme wealth: redefining whether “evil” might actually be a good thing. The eyebrow-raising philosophy came during a September 2026 appearance on MD Meets, where Thiel sat down with fellow billionaire Mathias Döpfner.

MAGA Rep. Dragged After Trying To Blame Obama For Current Gas Prices—And The Desperation Is Palpable

Democratic President Barack Obama left the White House almost a decade ago, serving as POTUS from January 2009 to January 2017. But apparently 10 years isn't long enough for Republicans to stop blaming him for their own party's failures.

During a September 30 appearance on Newsmax, Georgia MAGA Republican Representative Rich McCormick, who wasn't even in Congress when President Obama was in the White House, blamed the high price of gasoline on the former Democratic POTUS.

Video Of Trump's Awkward Stance While Speaking To Reporters Has The Internet Saying 'WTF??'

On Tuesday, MAGA Republican President Donald Trump held a luncheon with a number of tech billionaires and industry leaders. The luncheon came after Trump signed an executive order to mandate a name change for artificial intelligence, something he previewed during a speech before the United Nations General Assembly.

Trump's Inaugurating The Era Of Super Intelligence executive order requires all executive branch departments and agencies to use "super intelligence" and "SI" instead of "artificial intelligence" and "AI." At the luncheon, Trump and Sundar Pichai of Google, Mark Zuckerberg of Meta, Greg Brockman of OpenAI, Elon Musk on behalf of XAI, Dario Amodei of Anthropic, and Jensen Huang of Nvidia signed the Joint Commitment on Frontier Responsibilities which contained an embarassing typo.

'The Traitors' Star's Wife Sets The Record Straight After Fans Are Shocked That He Isn't Gay

Alan Cumming can throw 22 strangers into a Scottish castle, secretly recruit murderers, and arrive at breakfast dressed like a fabulously wealthy woman with several suspiciously deceased husbands. Yet somehow, contestant Jay Vinnedge having a wife became the season’s most unexpected plot twist.

'70s Rock Star Sparks Heated Debate After Claiming That Taylor Swift Has 'Ruined Music'

Taylor Swift's new extended album The Life of a Showgirl: Encore has been even more poorly received than the original version last year, and you can count Todd Rundgren among those who aren't impressed.

Who the heck is that? The 78-year-old rocker had a slew of hits in the 1970s, including "Hello It's Me" and "I Saw The Light," and also produced some of the most important rock albums of the era.
