by Jess Grant
12/9/20
From Kanye West’s golden shower, to Jared Leto emerging from a 12-day silent retreat to a world ravaged by COVID-19, to Phoebe Bridgers calling the election, it’s certainly been a year to remember on Music Twitter. And, of course, 2020 wouldn’t be 2020 if we didn’t have Dionne Warwick emerging as the unlikely queen of social media in the eleventh hour. Honestly, what would we do without this beautifully absurd bird app? Check out the latest edition of We Are: The Guard’s 10 Twitter Moments, featuring Dionne Warwick (duh), Taylor Swift, Phoebe Bridgers, and lots more!

Mrs. Dionne Warwick has a brand new iPhone, and she isn’t afraid to use it! I’m living for this Chance the Rapper roast! Besides, who hasn’t asked themselves this question?
Of course I know you. You’re THE rapper. Let’s rap together. I’ll message you. https://t.co/7ku9SMNUMB
