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.

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!

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
