Between the mediocre dinner plates and drunken selfies, I’m thinking fleets are about to get all kinds of messy over Thanksgiving. And, honestly? I’m here for it! I mean it, this is precisely the sort of drama I need to distract me from actually “socializing” with my extended family over the next couple of days. Before all of that, however, it’s time for the latest edition of We Are: The Guard’s 10 Twitter Moments. Just remember to save me some pumpkin pie in return for bringing you the following tweets from The Weeknd, Rihanna, Taylor Swift, and seven other favorites.

THE WEEKND RESPONDS TO GRAMMYS SNUB

Whatever your thoughts are on the GRAMMYs, there’s no doubt The Weeknd was robbed. After Hours is among Abel Tesfaye’s greatest albums, and, well, who hasn’t had “Blinding Lights” on heavy rotation since last year?

 

RIHANNA IS HAVING THE ULTIMATE SELF-CARE SUNDAY

Weed? Check. A glass of red wine? Check. An entire range of Fenty Skin that definitely isn’t product placement? Check, check, and check. This is for sure my kind of self-care Sunday, Rihanna! P.S. DROP THE DAMN ALBUM!

 

TAYLOR SWIFT CELEBRATES NOMINATIONS SWEEP

Erm, the most legendary Zoom call in music history, much? Jokes aside, I thought I was excited by the news that folklore had swept the GRAMMY nominations, but then I caught this shot of Taylor Swift’s team. ADORABLE!

 

MILEY CYRUS CELEBRATES HER BIRTHDAY WITH BABY VIDEOS

While most baby videos leave me cringing, this home footage of Miley Cyrus is officially the cutest. Cheerleading? Roller skating? Channeling her inner Britney Spears? WAS THERE NOTHING THIS KID COULDN’T DO?

 

PHOEBE BRIDGERS SLEPT THROUGH THE GRAMMY NOMINATIONS

I’m sorry, but, repeating the words “four-time GRAMMY Award nominee Phoebe Bridgers” is NEVER going to get old! This feels like such a huge moment for sad girls everywhere! Punisher listening party, LET’S GO!

 

MEGAN THEE STALLION HAS THAT BODY-ODY

BODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY-ODY!

 

DUA LIPA IS EMOTIONAL OVER FUTURE NOSTALGIA NOMINATIONS

I’M NOT CRYING, YOU’RE CRYING! No, really, Future Nostalgia has kept so many of us going through quarantine, so it’s awesome to see Dua Lipa finally getting the recognition she deserves. Next up: World domination!

 

CAMILA CABELLO WATCHES SHAWN MENDES: IN WONDER

Camila Cabello and Shawn Mendes really are the most adorable damn couple in Hollywood, huh? Okay, so, I admit I’m still getting over that kiss video from last year, but who doesn’t love a supportive relationship like this?

 

NICKI MINAJ IS STILL MAD SHE LOST A GRAMMY TO BON IVER

OMG! Nicki Minaj and Bon Iver is NOT the beef I was expecting today! And while I love Justin Vernon, I do understand why Nicki is mad. She deserved all of the GRAMMYs in 2012 for that “Roman Holiday” performance alone!

 

DEMI LOVATO DEBUTS ICONIC BLONDE PIXIE CUT

COME THROUGH, DEMETRIA LOVATO! This blonde pixie cut is EVERYTHING! I’m getting big Miley Cyrus circa Bangers mixed with retro Sharon Stone vibes? Which obviously means this next era is going to be iconic!
