1/8/20

How is it we're only eight days into 2020 and already so much has occurred on Twitter? Like, you know, the President of the United States casually tweeting about COMMITTING LITERAL WAR CRIMES.

Sometimes I feel like we should all do a Lizzo and delete the whole damn app, but, let's be honest – that's never going to happen. Not when our faves are delivering content like the kind featured in today's edition of We Are: The Guard's 10 Twitter Moments.

Forget about your New Year's resolution to spend fewer hours on social media, then, as it's time to check out the following 280-character highlights from Cardi B, Rihanna, Megan Thee Stallion, and more.

CARDI B IS MOVING TO NIGERIA

Cardi B took to Twitter on Friday to announce she's moving to Nigeria in response to Donald Trump's recent unhinged episode, and in all fairness, who can blame her? There's still the small problem of convincing Offset, though...

 

GENE SIMMONS PUTS ICE CUBES IN HIS CEREAL

OK boomer.

 

RIHANNA POSTS HER FIRST SELFIE OF 2020

I'm sorry, but – who does Robyn Fenty think she is? Posting these glowing selfies, like we're still not waiting for her to drop R9? THE AUDACITY!

 

FRANZ FERDINAND ISSUE STATEMENT REGARDING WORLD WAR III

If there's one good thing that's come from all of this WWIII stuff, it's the fact that early 00s legends Franz Ferdinand have got a free bit of publicity from it all. Don't even act like “Take Me Out” doesn't slap to this day.

 

WHEN CHET PORTER MET DRAKE

LMAO. I thought I'd had some funny celebrity interactions in my time, but this encounter between Chet Porter and Drake is something else.

 

LIL NAS X HAS BEEN DRAFTED INTO WWIII

NOTHING BUT RESPECT FOR OUR TROOPS! Jokes aside, how does Lil Nas X manage to have a meme for every situation? Hahaha.

 

HOZIER IS EVOLVING

Does this mean Hozier is some kind of singing-songwriting equivalent of a Pokémon? Does this also mean we're yet to see Hozier's most powerful final form? MY MIND IS BLOWN!

 

BEYONCÉ AND MEGAN THEE STALLION CELEBRATE NEW YEAR

Happy New Year, hotties! These pics of Beyoncé and Megan Thee Stallion are everything! Can we also take a moment to discuss Miss. Blue Ivy Carter? Since when did she grow up so fast?

 

ARIANA GRANDE STANS IMOGEN HEAP

Ariana Grande fangirling over indie icon Imogen Heap quite honestly never gets old. Perhaps it's time for Ari to bring back the MI.MU Gloves? As I really want Ari to bring back the MI.MU Gloves.

 

LIL UZI VERT IS SELF-CARE GOALS

Lil Uzi Vert using a facial mask? WE LOVE TO SEE IT! We stan a self-care king!

P.S. DROP THE COLLAB (finally)!
