We lost a certified GOAT on Friday. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Twitter overflowing with tributes like it was for DMX – who passed away at the age of 50 after being hospitalized following a heart attack. Scroll through some of our favorite tweets dedicated to the hip-hop legend below, and catch the latest edition of We Are: The Guard’s 10 Twitter Moments after the jump.

TAYLOR SWIFT WOKE UP AND CHOSE VIOLENCE

Taylor Swift’s goblin voice really woke up and chose violence, huh? Honestly, though, this loyal Swiftie couldn’t be more thankful for it! “Mr. Perfectly Fine” is a definitive bop that’s got me cry-singing in my hair curler like I’m 16 all over again! Just don’t tell Joe Jonas!

 

JOE JONAS IS “MR. PERFECTLY VACCINATED”

Joe Jonas sees your “Mr. Perfectly Fine,” Taylor Swift, and raises you “MR. PERFECTLY VACCINATED!” In all seriousness, if a side-effect of getting the COVID-19 vaccine is looking as hot as Joe and Sophie Turner, INJECT THAT BABY INTO MY VEINS! #LetsNotGetIt

 

JOHN LEGEND TWEETS ON BEHALF OF CHRISSY TEIGEN

LOL! While I was devastated when Chrissy Teigen decided to shut down her Twitter account, I knew it was only a matter of time until the hubster would be tweeting on her behalf. I’ve got to say the sass doesn’t quite cut through this way, but it’s better than nothing! WE LOVE AND MISS YOU, CHRISSY!

 

HALLE BAILEY IS THE DISNEY PRINCESS WE DESERVE

MY DISNEY PRINCESS HAS SPOKEN! I’m not going to lie, this TikTok manicure video seriously traumatized me, so I’m glad Ariel herself, Miss. Halle Bailey, has stepped in to put things straight! We must protect Sebastian and his beautiful red claws at all costs *cries*.

 

DAMN, NORMANI IS FINE

Normani: “damn I’m fine.”

PHOEBE BRIDGERS IS STILL DRAGGING DAVID CROSBY

ROFL! Phoebe Bridgers vs. David Crosby really is the Twitter beef that keeps on giving, huh? As for the guitar auction itself, bidding was kept anonymous for the duration of the event, although it’s rumored the winning recipient went under the username “LittleBitch1.”

 

LADY GAGA IS FINALLY GETTING #JUSTICEFORARTPOP

Eight years after its release, I’m so happy to see Lady Gaga’s ARTPOP finally getting the recognition it deserves! Every song on that album goes the hell off and it’s only unfortunate it’s taken this long for the Internet to realize. BRB, listening to “Venus” at maximum volume while we wait for news on ARTPOP: Act II! #JusticeForARTPOP

 

KID CUDI LOOKED INCREDIBLE IN HIS DRESS ON SNL

There have been many incredible SNL performances over recent months (hi, Phoebe Bridgers), but Kid Cudi paying tribute to Kurt Cobain in a Virgil Abloh dress hit different! My humming lord looked nothing short of amazing in the OFF-WHITE design on Saturday night! Plus, that little curtsy he did at the end of the performance? ICONIC!

 

LIL NAS X’S “MONTERO” CAKE IS EVERYTHING

Me imagining Lil Nas X’s managers ordering this: “Okay, so can you bake us a standard cake, but can you also make it look like the fiery depths of hell? Plus, can you add a guy sliding headfirst down a stripper pole? Oh, and make sure he has thigh-high leather boots on!” Feel free to send me a slice alongside my 12-pack of Hanes Socks, Nas!

 

THIS IS A JEAN DAWSON APPRECIATION POST

This is a Jean Dawson appreciation post! I’m sorry, but don’t tell me this dude isn’t the definition of swagger! P.S. Did anyone manage to cop any goodies from Jean’s latest Turbo Radio clothing line drop? It sold out in minutes and I’m freaking p*ssed I missed out!
