Taylor Swift has brought Hayley Kiyoko on stage and performed lesbian love song “Curious” with her, because it’s #20GayTeen and we’re thriving.

The performance at the 66,000-capacity Gillette Stadium in Massachusetts marked Hayley’s first-ever stadium appearance—and the fans went wild.

Taylor publicly supported Hayley earlier this year when the singer, who has been dubbed “Lesbian Jesus” by fans, spoke out about homophobia music industry.

And last night (July 26), at the home of the New England Patriots, Taylor reportedly revealed that she was a follower of our lesbian lord and savour, saying: “This is someone whose music I’m absolutely obsessed with.”

The “Delicate” singer then told the crowd: “This is someone who I think is one of the most exciting new artists out here. And she’s here to play for you tonight.

“I’m really serious about this, it’s her first time in a stadium. Is it going to be the loudest stadium?”

We can’t say how vocal the crowd was, but Hayley was pretty damn thrilled, as she made clear on Instagram, writing: “DO NOT KNOW HOW TO COMPREHEND WHAT JUST HAPPENED.

“PLEASE LET ME KNOW. THANK YOU.”

And we can confirm that fans were at peak excitement—which they made fully clear.

One wrote on Twitter: “TAYLOR SWIFT AND HAYLEY KIYOKO SINGING CURIOUS ON STAGE I NEVER THOUGHT I NEEDED THIS UNTIL TONIGHT.”

Another utilised a popular meme to say, correctly, that “taylor swift bringing hayley kiyoko onstage as a surprise guest at gillette raised millions for the lgbt.”

One fan wrote: “hayley kiyoko and taylor swift singing curious to 60k people is everything i need in life.”

Another said: “cause of death: hayley kiyoko and taylor swift performing curious together.”

Same, honestly.

“OH MY GODDNESS CAN WE JUST TAKE A MOMENT TO COMPREHEND THAT THIS JUST HAPPENED TAYLOR SWIFT AND HAYLEY KIYOKO PREFORMING “CURIOUS” TOGETHER I CAN’TTTY THIS IS EVERYTHING I ASKEE FOR #20gayteen,” wrote one thrilled fan.

And another all-caps user wrote: “TAYLOR SWIFT AND HAYLEY KIYOKO SINGING ON STAGE TOGETHER WHAT GOOD DEED DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS 20GAYTEEN RISEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE.”

They added: “guys im not ok omg this is everything ive ever wanted.”

And all credit to that same person, who popularised—if not coined—the term “Repugaytion tour.”

Let’s all take a moment to be extremely jealous of everyone who was present for the special moment, such as this fan.

“Tonight, I was 3 feet away from Taylor Swift, made eye contact with her, and was blessed by a surprise appearance from Lesbian Jesus aka @HayleyKiyoko like WHAT A GREAT NIGHT,” they wrote.

The shock was palpable, causing one person to say: “Well damn I don’t think any of us were expecting a performance with Hayley Kiyoko…she really did that huh?”

She really did, and it looks like it was spectacular.

Earlier this month, Hayley revealed that she knew she was gay at six years old.

The Disney-star-turned-queer-icon broke the internet last year with an Instagram post in which she kissed Chanel Celaya, who played “Headphones Girl” in her “Gravel To Tempo” video.

The singer also released the video for her lesbian love song “Feelings,” in which she dances, sings and flirts with a woman on a deserted street.

And earlier this year, Hayley and fellow queer singer Kehlani shared a beautiful kiss in the music video for “What I Need.”
