Earlier this week, Lady Gaga shut down pregnancy rumors with a little help from some Taylor Swift lyrics, and shortly after, the "Bad Blood" singer herself defended Gaga in the comments.
Gaga's TikTok was in response to speculation swirling about after she was photographed celebrating her sister Natali Germanotta's wedding over the weekend.
The singer shut down the rumors in a TikTok in which she quoted some "Down Bad" lyrics, sharing via text overlay:
âNot pregnant â just down bad cryin at the gym."
Gaga sported dramatic black-eyeliner while lip-syncing to a TikTok voice-over that says:
âI donât have to find an aesthetic. I am an aesthetic."
"I mean Iâm sure thereâs somebody out here right now whoâs going into Pinterest trying to type up all these adjectives to describe me.â
She also urged viewers to âregister to vote at www.headcount.org," which she echoed in the caption.

Of course fans of both Swift and Gaga were elated over the "Down Bad" reference.

They soon had even more to celebrate as Swift herself showed up in the comments to defend Gaga, writing:
âCan we all agree that it's invasive & irresponsible to comment on a womanâs body."
âGaga doesnât owe anyone an explanation & neither does any woman đ"

And people on social media did agree, applauding Swift for standing up for Gaga and for women everywhere.
Of course, Gaga is no stranger to being criticized about her body.
After her Super Bowl halftime performance in 2017, the singer took to Instagram to address the topic, writing:
âI heard my body is a topic of conversation so I wanted to say, I'm proud of my body and you should be proud of yours too. No matter who you are or what you do.â
âI could give you a million reasons why you don't need to cater to anyone or anything to succeed."
âBe you, and be relentlessly you. That's the stuff of champions. thank you so much everyone for supporting me. I love you guys. Xoxo, gaga."
Preach!
