10 TWITTER MOMENTS: CHER DEFENDS TAYLOR SWIFT

7/3/19

Hey stans and stanettes, and thanks for joining me for the latest edition of We Are: The Guard's 10 Twitter Moments! I hate to break it to you, but it's actually been a pretty quiet seven days on the celebrity social media front... PSYCH! Unless you've been living under a rock with no Wi-Fi connection, you'll know that the tea has been PIPING HOT on Twitter this week! Whether your #TeamTaylor or #TeamScott, then, make sure that you're locked in as you're not going to want to miss out on the following 280-character highlights from Cher, Lil Nas X, Nick Jonas, Mariah Carey, Lizzo, and more!

CHER DEFENDS TAYLOR SWIFT

Ladies and gentlemen: The Queen has spoken. Scooter Braun may have Justin Bieber and Demi Lovato coming to his defense on social media, but one artist who doesn't have his back is Cher. I'm pretty sure that this officially makes Taylor Swift the winner of this whole entire beef, but I'm just waiting on Barbra Streisand to confirm.

 

LIL NAS X COMES OUT

Lil Nas X coming out on the final day of Pride Month is the tonic that I needed to get me through the rest of 2019. The “Old Town Road” artist is out here topping charts, breaking records, and making history – and now he's inspiring millions of other LGBTQ+ kids that they can do the same! How amazing is that?!

 

THUNDERCAT V.S. CLIMATE CHANGE

Thundercat: Funkmaster, bass extraordinaire, and groundbreaking climate change activist. Greta Thunberg could never.

P.S. Is he holding a Dragon Ball?! LOL.

 

NICK JONAS AND PRIYANKA CHOPRA <3 “SEÑORITA”

Erm – is anyone else as obsessed with the idea of Nick Jonas and Priyanka Chopra dancing on a superyacht somewhere to “Señorita” by Shawn Mendes and Camila Cabello as I am?! We stan a couple with impeccable taste!

 

FINNEAS IS A MOOD

*Turns on radio once*

 

HALSEY AND YUNGBLUD ARE EVERYTHING

Is it weird that I'm more obsessed with Halsey's love life than I am my own?! Having watched men hurt her over and over again (*cough* G-Eazy *cough*), I'm SO glad that the “Nightmare” singer has finally found someone that treats her right in the form of British act YUNGBLUD. Here's to more happy endings!

 

MARIAH CAREY AND KEHLANI SHARE THE LOVE

The best thing about Twitter is getting to see all my of faves interacting with and supporting each other. Case in point: Mariah Carey and Kehlani coming together over their shared love of the ICONIC, LEGENDARY The Emancipation of Mimi. No kidding – my skin is glowing and my health is fully restored, and it's all because of this conversation right here!

 

ELLIE GOULDING DOES THE #BOTTLECAPCHALLENGE

Everyone is declaring British actor Jason Statham the winner of the #BottleCapChallenge – the latest “viral challenge” to take over Twitter this summer – but they clearly haven't got a load of Ellie Goulding's cap-kicking skills. My only question: Whose face do you think that El was thinking about when she did this?!

P.S. Hi, Katy!

 

LIZZO STILL WANTS TO PLAY URSULA

How COULD you, Disney?! Melissa McCarthy is okay and all, but EVERYONE knows that Lizzo was born to play Ursula in the live-action remake of The Little Mermaid! To paraphrase “Truth Hurts”: “I just took a DNA test, turns out I'm 100% that sea witch!” #JusticeForLizzo

 

CARDI B SHARES ADORABLE VIDEO OF KULTURE

OMG! Kulture is literally the cutest bubba-boo EVER! Is it me or is she also turning into a miniature Cardi B before our very eyes?! That lil' hat is giving me LIFE!
