Playboi Carti le regaló a Ice Spice su "demoníaco" Colgante al revés

Ice Spice cabreó a muchos con su aparición en el Super Bowl, ya que algunos relacionaron el colgante que llevaba con el mismísimo diablo. Sin embargo, Playboi Carti no quería generar ningún tipo de polémica.

La rapera fue vista durante la transmisión del partido del domingo y una buena cantidad de gente se fijó en el collar que llevaba en el palco de Taylor Swift y compañía, que (y para mucha gente) parecía una cruz al revés.

Por supuesto, hubo acusaciones de "adoración al diablo" y símbolos "demoníacos" mostrándose en televisión frente a millones de personas. Un gesto que hizo con la mano tampoco ayudó.

Resulta que no hay nada de impío en este colgante, al menos eso es lo que nos han dicho.

Fuentes con conocimiento directo le dicen a TMZ que la pieza fue diseñada por el joyero Alex Moss, y es solo un dulce pedazo de hielo sin ataduras diabólicas detrás de él. Nos dicen que el colgante está hecho de oro negro, un nuevo material que se ha desarrollado y que Alex está utilizando en una próxima colección. La cruz también tiene zafiros rosa por todas partes.

Nuestras fuentes dicen que Ice es la primera estrella de su calibre en tener este tipo de pieza en su poder y tiene que agradecerle a Carti por ello, nos dicen que en realidad se lo regaló no hace mucho tiempo.

Mientras que el tipo está ciertamente entusiasmado por la honda gótica en estos días, nuestras fuentes nos aseguran que no había nada satánico detrás del significado. Nos dicen que el diseño de la pieza es un esfuerzo de colaboración entre Alex y PBC.

Es dificil saber si la gente se lo creerá... pero esa es la explicación que nos han dado.

Francamente, ¿quién diablos sabe lo que hay en los corazones de la gente? Lo que podemos deducir de esto es que la cadena es bastante cool en todo caso.

De todos modos, es solo una más de muchas estrellas que han tenido que defenderse contra las acusaciones de hacer un trato con el príncipe de las tinieblas.

ICE SPICE Carti Gifted 'Demonic' Pendant But Nothing Unholy Here

Ice Spice pissed off many with her appearance at the Super Bowl -- as some interpreted a pendant she wore as pure evil ... even though, Playboi Carti meant nothing by it.

Here's the deal ... the rapper was seen a lot during Sunday's broadcast of the game, and a good amount of folks noticed the chain/necklace she was wearing in the suite with Taylor Swift and co., which (to a lot of people) looked like an upside-down cross.

Of course, that got some pearl-clutchers up in arms ... with accusations of "devil worship" and "demonic" symbols being shown on TV in front of millions. A hand gesture she made at one point -- quiet coyote -- certainly didn't help either with the unholy accusations.

Welp, as it turns out ... there's nothing un-godly about this pendant at all -- at least that's what we're being told anyway.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ that the piece was designed by celeb jeweler Alex Moss, and it's just a sweet piece of ice with no devil ties behind it whatsoever. We're told the pendant is made from black gold, a new material that's been developed and which Alex is using in a forthcoming collection this cross also has baby pink sapphires all throughout.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Our sources say Ice is the first star of her caliber to have this sort of piece in her possession -- and she has Carti to thank for it ... we're told he actually gifted it to her not too long ago.

While the dude is certainly known for his gothic/vampire vibes these days -- our sources assure us ... there was nothing satanic behind the meaning/design of the piece, which we're told was a collab effort between Alex and PBC.

Hard to tell if people will buy that ... but that's the explanation that's been provided to us.

Whether it leans toward the dark side or not -- 'cause frankly, who the hell knows what's in people's hearts -- what we can gather from this is ... the chain is freakin' dope, and it's rare.

Anyhoo ... it's just the latest star to fight off accusations of dancin' with the prince of darkness.

El error vocal de Alicia Keys es eliminado del espectáculo de medio tiempo Del Super Bowl

Los espectadores del Super Bowl se abalanzaron rápidamente sobre Alicia Keys por estropear una nota durante su actuación en el Halftime Show con Usher, pero ya se ha corregido el error.

Alicia desafinó un poco el domingo cuando comenzó a cantar "If I Ain't Got You" mientras tocaba el piano en el escenario, algo que la gente notó de inmediato y se burló de ella, aunque nunca lo sabrías si te perdiste el show en vivo.

La razón... el video oficial del espectáculo de Apple Music en el descanso del Super Bowl publicado en YouTube -que está colgado ahora mismo- eliminó claramente el pequeño error.

Escucha las comparaciones entre la actuación en directo y la versión publicada... parece que los editores han pulido la voz de Alicia. De hecho, no hay duda de que lo hicieron.

Ahora, no lo malinterpreten, esto no es una gran "conspiración" que involucra a la Liga Nacional de Fútbol como algunos han sugerido, es solo la NFL y Apple Music dándole una mano a Alicia.

Un montón de gente se está burlando de Alicia en redes sociales, por lo que los peces gordos que toman las decisiones aquí parecen estar lanzandole un salvavidas. Además, hay que suponer que quieren entregar el mejor producto posible, así que no es de extrañar en absoluto.

Dicho esto, todo el mundo va a recordar que Alicia necesitó un poco de magia de post-producción, ¡pero no hay daño, no hay falta, ella sigue siendo una cantante increíble!

No te preocupes, Alicia... la NFL y Apple te cubren las espaldas.

Alicia Keys Voice Polished Up After Missed Note ... On SB Halftime Show YT

Super Bowl viewers were quick to pounce on Alicia Keys for botching a note during her Halftime show performance with Usher ... but her voice crack has since been cleaned up.

Alicia was a little off-key Sunday when she started singing "If I Ain't Got You" while playing piano onstage -- something people very much so noticed immediately and mocked her over -- although, you wouldn't know it if you missed the live show on air during Super Bowl LVIII.

The reason ... the official Apple Music Super Bowl Halftime Show video published on YouTube -- which is up right now -- very clearly edited out the minor flub.

Take a listen to the comparisons between the live performance and the version posted on YT ... it certainly seems like editors went back and polished up Alicia's voice. In fact, there's almost no question they did -- as the difference between the two versions is noticeable.

Now, don't get it twisted ... this isn't some huge "conspiracy" involving the National Football League as some have suggested ... it's really just the NFL/Apple Music doing Alicia a solid.

Plenty of folks are already poking fun at Alicia on social media over this, so the bigwigs calling the shots here seem to be throwing AK a life raft. Plus, ya gotta figure they wanna put the best product available in the official version that lives on ... so it's not surprising at all.

With that said, everyone's gonna probably remember ... AK needed a little post-production magic when it's all said and done. No harm, no foul -- she's still an amazing singer!

Don't worry, Alicia ... the NFL and Apple have your back.

Usher I Just Can't Stop Roller-Skating!!! Keeps On Rollin' Post-SB

Usher's moves from the Halftime show seamlessly floated on over to an after-party -- where he kept on skating ... only here, all eyes were on him and his (maybe?) new bride.

Super Bowl LVIII's headlining act hosted a star-studded bash in Las Vegas Sunday night after the big game ... and TMZ has obtained video of Usher cutting a rug on the dance floor, or on the roller rink, rather.

As you can see, Usher has his roller skates on and he's zipping around, doing some break dance moves ... all while looking pretty slick. Remember, Usher incorporated roller skating into his epic halftime performance, and he's keeping the good vibes going here as well.

The after-party went down at Flipper's Roller Boogie Palace inside Encore Beach Club at Wynn Las Vegas, with performances from Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, Diplo and Hardy.

Usher's party also recognized his new album, "Coming Home," and the 30th anniversary of Snoop and Dre's "Gin & Juice." So yeah, SD came out and spit some bars for his old pal.

Other big-time stars who showed up for the bash included ... Andra Day, Big Boy, Brent Faiyaz, Draymond Green, Flavor Flav, Flo Rida, Gabrielle Union, H.E.R, Jermaine Dupri, Justin Hartley, Leon Bridges, Lindsey Vonn, Luke Combs, Ludacris, Machine Gun Kelly, Maren Morris, Megan Fox, Ne-Yo, Pauly Shore, Ray Ray McCloud III, Speedy Morman, TANK, Tiffany Haddish, Too Short, Tim Cook, Victoria Monet, Ying Yang Twins, will.i.am, Winnie Harlow, Zach Bia, and Zane Low ... just to name a few!

Now, eyewitnesses tell us Folks who were there tell us Usher rolled in around 1:40 AM and partied for about 80 minutes ... having fun with a bunch of different people, including his longtime partner, Jennifer Goicoechea, whom he's reported to have married this weekend.

As we reported, Usher and Jennifer obtained a marriage license in Clark County -- and some have suggested they've already tied the knot. If they did, they're keep it low-key for now.

The Flipper’s Skate brand worked with Usher to design the skates he and the skaters wore during the Super Bowl halftime show and to the after party. The skates dropped right after the half time show and you can buy the Flipper’s Quadz by Usher for yourself.

It's unclear or not if Usher and Jenn are, in fact, man and wife at this point -- the details of any purported wedding have surfaced just yet -- but they were being called "newlyweds" at this shindig.

In any case ... lots for Usher to celebrate, regardless. Super Bowl, new album, possible new wife and rave reviews.

Kanye West dice que ganó 19 millones de dólares en ventas de Yeezy Tras el anuncio del Super Bowl

Kanye West desembolsó una pequeña fortuna para tener algunos espacios publicitarios durante el Super Bowl y parece haber dado sus frutos... al menos según él.

Ye anunció su botín del domingo en las redes sociales para dar inicio a la nueva semana y las cifras de un solo día que está citando son bastante buenas, alrededor de $19 millones es lo que uno de los representantes de Yeezy.com dijo que facturaron después de su anuncio.

Publicó una captura de pantalla de un texto que aparentemente recibió, que desglosa qué artículos se vendieron y la cantidad de dólares. Hay 4 productos en particular que Kanye y compañía estaban tratando de vender. Productos tales como pantalones, tops, una camiseta y los pods YZY.

Los pods son básicamente calcetines futuristas plegables que se pueden usar como calzado real.

Curiosamente, Kanye parece haber tenido una gran venta en su sitio web. Estos artículos están todos a la venta por un mísero $20. Sí, incluso ahora, usted puede conseguirlos a ese precio.

Si estos números son exactos, entonces sí, parece que su "comercial" (si se puede llamar así) funcionó de maravilla.

021224_kanye_ad_kal
SIMPLIFICANDO LAS COSAS

Aporopósito, el tipo tuvo uno de los anuncios más básicos de todos los tiempos y que solo se emitió en algunos mercados durante la emisión de la Super Bowl y contó con Ye literalmente filmándose a sí mismo en la parte trasera de un carro y dando una explicación rápida de lo que estaba vendiendo.

Como hemos dicho, era realmente básico y, sin embargo, ¡funcionó!

Kanye West I Cleaned Up After Crappy SB AD .. $19 Million in Yeezy $ales!!!

Kanye West shelled out a small fortune for some ad space during the Super Bowl -- in a limited capacity, anyway -- and it seems to have paid off ... at least according to him.

Ye announced his haul from Sunday on social media to kick off the new week -- and single-day figures that he's citing are pretty good ... around $19 million is what one of his reps says Yeezy.com made after his stripped-down SB spot.

He posted a screenshot of a text he apparently received, which breaks down what items were sold and the dollar amount for each. There's 4 different products that KW and co. were really pushing, it seems, and those include a top, pants, a T-shirt and YZY pods.

The pods are basically foldable futuristic socks that you can wear as actual footwear.

Funny enough, Kanye seems to have had a great sale on his website ... these items he's hawking are all on sale for a measly $20. Yep ... even now, you can get 'em at that price.

If these numbers are accurate -- then yeah ... Kanye low-key cleaned up on his inventory ... and it would appear his "commercial" (if you can call it that) actually worked wonders.

KEEPIN' IT SIMPLE

ICYMI ... the dude had one of the most bare-bones ads of all time -- which only aired in certain markets during the Super Bowl broadcast -- and it featured Ye literally filming himself in the back of a car, selfie-style, and giving a quick explainer of what he was selling.

Like we said, it was as basic as it could be -- and yet, it seems to have done the job!

Usher's Super Bowl Air Jordan's 48-Hour Rush Job Only Had 1 Sneaker Before Showtime!!!

Usher resembled something out of "Space Jam" during part of his Super Bowl thanks to his futuristic Air Jordan 4's -- an emergency addition to his glitzy wardrobe!!!

Dominic "The Surgeon" Ciambrone had to spring into action 48 hours before Usher hit the stage ... we are told Jordan Brand had given the R&B megastar only one prototype of the silver metallic sneaker but was unable to get him the other shoe time for Super Bowl over delays due to Lunar New Year.

Usher reached out to Dominic to recreate all the materials of the kicks ... which fuse the chrome finish atop mirrored textiles and blue compliments ... which, he did in under 48 hours after taking 11 cracks at redesigning the shoe to get it perfect!!!

Dominic tells us Jordan Brand and Usher whipped up the design inspired by the "Confessions" singer's universal space theme.

Waiting for your permission to load the Instagram Media.

Upon completion, Dom handcuffed himself to the briefcase containing the coveted kicks and hightailed it to Vegas on a last-minute flight Sunday to hand-deliver them.

Mission Impossible became a reality shortly after ... Usher canoodled with Alicia Keys onstage and closed out his Super Bowl set in the shiny AJ4s joined by Ludacris, Lil Jon, Jermaine Dupri and will.i.am.

Kim Kardashian at Super Bowl LVIII Celeb-Packed Suite, But ... Looking Kinda Meh Next to Taylor's 👀

No shocker that Kim Kardashian locked down a luxury suite at the Super Bowl, and even had it filled with A-listers -- but what is surprising is how NOT lit it was compared to Taylor Swift's.

The photos showing off their respective suites are out, and we gotta say ... the KarJenner box -- at least for some parts of the game -- comes across as a little bit of a snooze fest when ya see the lively scene in T-Swift's area.

Check out the pics for yourself and we'll let you decide which suite feels like the better time.

In Kim's suite, there are people slumped over and leaning on their hands as if they're just running out the clock -- and one dude in there looks like he's about to take a long nap.

The opposite vibe was happening across the way at Tay Tay's suite ... where Blake Lively, Ice Spice, Miles Teller and a few other stars were losing their minds and celebrating a ton. Of course, Taylor herself was leading the charge on the partying ... pounding beers, etc.

TMZ.com

Kim's suite was just as star-studded, of course, with Justin and Hailey Bieber and other KarJenner sisters, Russell Wilson and Ciara, La La Anthony, Texans QB C.J. Stroud, Winnie Harlow and Michael Rubin all attending, but things looked sorta quiet.

Now, this ain't a competition or anything -- but the differences are notable because of the history of bad blood between Taylor and Kim ... which, as we recently learned, is still fresh on T-Swift's mind, something she commented on in her TIME Person of the Year cover story.

TMZ INVESTIGATES
TMZ Studios

As we reported ... Taylor said she still feels like Kanye/Kim were wrong over the whole 2016 recorded-convo thing -- and even today, it sounds like she'd appreciate an apology.

One last thing we'll point out about the Super Bowl suites -- when the CBS broadcast went around highlighting the different stars at Allegiant Stadium, they conspicuously did NOT cut to the Kardashians and their whole crew. It was ... fairly noticeable.

El palco de Kim Kardashian parece aburrido Comparado con el de Taylor Swift

No es ninguna sorpresa que Kim Kardashian haya reservado un palco de lujo para ver el Super Bowl. Tampoco es raro que esté lleno de estrellas. Lo que sí es sorprendente es lo poco iluminado que estuvo en comparación con el de Taylor Swift.

Las fotos que muestran sus respectivos palcos y tenemos que decir que el de Kim parece a ratos un cementerio, sobre todo si lo comparamos con la fiesta que se vivía en el palco de Taylor.

Échale un vistazo a las fotos por ti mismo y te dejaremos decidir qué palco te parece que está pasando un mejor momento.

En el de Kim, hay gente sentada y apoyada como si estuvieran agotados todo el tiempo, incluso hay un tipo que parece estar a punto de tomar una larga siesta.

El ambiente opuesto se vivíoa en el palco de Tay Tay, donde Blake Lively, Ice Spice, Miles Teller y algunas otras estrellas estaban perdiendo la cabeza y celebrando. Por supuesto, la propia Taylor estaba a la cabeza de la fiesta, bebiendo cervezas, etc.

Kim también estuvo rodeada de estrellas, con Justin y Hailey Bieber y otras hermanas KarJenner, Russell Wilson y Ciara, La La Anthony, Texans QB C.J. Stroud, Winnie Harlow y Michael Rubin, pero las cosas parecían un poco más tranquilas.

Sabemos que esto no es una competencia ni nada, pero las diferencias son notables debido a la historia de mala sangre entre Taylor y Kim, que, como hemos sabido recientemente, todavía está fresco en la mente de Taylor, algo que ella comentó en su aparición en la portada del Times.

Como informamos, Taylor dijo que todavía siente que Kanye y Kim estaban equivocados sobre el asunto del 2016, e incluso hoy en día, suena como ella apreciaría una disculpa.

Una cosa más... cuando la transmisión de CBS destacó las diferentes estrellas en el Estadio Allegiant, curiosamente NO nombraron a las Kardashians... fue bastante notable.

Swizz Beatz reacciona al abrazo por detrás De Usher a Alicia Keys... su mujer

Usher y Alicia Keys se acercaron durante el espectáculo del medio tiempo del Super Bowl... y se acercaron bastante para el gusto de algunas personas, aunque el marido de Alicia no parece estar preocupado en lo absoluto.

Swizz Beatz no solo no se ofendió, sino que se ríe de todos los críticos que se indignaron en su nombre y les dicie que su enfoque está en el lugar equivocado, y que deberían preocuparse del abrazo por la espalda (de Usher a Alicia), Swizz dice ¡mira lo que hicieron!

Él escribe: "¡Todos hablando de la maldita cosa equivocada! ¡Todos ustedes no ven ese increíble vestido cubriendo todo el estadio ⚡️🚨😂😂😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 La actuación de esta noche no fue más que increíble con dos Gigantes increíbles!"

Swizz continuó diciendo: "Felicidades @usher y mi amor @aliciakeys esa canción es un clásico 🤍 No hacemos vibraciones negativas en este lado hacemos historia ✌🏽 Vayan a ver GIANTS en @brooklynmuseum está abierto hasta julio bendiciones".

En otras palabras, él no está celoso, a pesar de lo que un montón de gente pueda sentir.

A propósito, la actuación de Usher fue muy comentada en las redes sociales por este momento en particular... él envolviendo a Alicia en sus brazos por detrás mientras cantaban a dúo, "My Boo".

Una persona notable que comentó al respecto fue la estrella del boxeo Gervonta Davis, quien sugirió que usaría sus habilidades de boxeo para enseñarlee a Usher una cosa o dos acerca de los límites. Boosie Badazz incluso le exigió Usher disculparse públicamente.

De hecho, hubo algunos que estaban realmente enojados. Pero incluso así, Swizz parece mantener una calma impresionante.

Claramente él está cómodo con Alicia, recordemos que llevan casados varios años.

El movimiento de Usher causó un gran revuelo, y algunos invocaron al marido de Keke Palmer para probar su punto.

De todos modos, publicamos la historia sobre el cameo de Alicia en SBLVIII, donde las dos megaestrellas de la música recordaron su canción multi-platino de 2004, recreando las escenas hot del video.

TAYLOR SWIFT FIRST-EVER SUPER BOWL HIGHLIGHTS!!!

Taylor Swift swapped center stage for a Vegas suite ... with all eyes transfixed on her as she cheered on her Kansas City Chiefs BF Travis Kelce to his big win during her first-ever Super Bowl appearance -- and we've got all the highlights right here.

The star came with an entourage for the ages ... she was seated in her suite with Blake Lively, Ice Spice, Lana Del Rey, Miles Teller and his wife Keleigh Sperry, as well as Kelce's family, including his mom Donna, dad Ed, brother Jason Kelce -- and her own dad, Scott Swift.

Like any other girl squad gearing for a night out, the pop idol kicked things off at the Allegiant Stadium with a little alcohol, chugging beer on the big screen for the cheering crowds. Important to note, Taylor's got some skills! She absolutely destroyed her pal Ashley Avignone ... downing the beverage in around 6.6 seconds. Okayyyy T!!!

Now, despite all the fun and festivities, things did get a little intense at the SB ... just ask Tay Tay, she was seen anxiously chowing down on her nails during the fourth quarter -- no doubt hoping the game would unfold in favor of her man Travis. Talk about nail-biting drama both on and off the field!

Thankfully for TS, things did work out with the Chiefs' big win -- and it was the singer herself spearheading the celebrations. Check out the video ... Taylor, Blake, and Ice Spice can't contain themselves, enthusiastically jumping up and down -- and knocking down poor ol' Lana Del Rey as the victory dance got a bit intense.

Of course, the festivities continued long into the evening ... with Taylor's catalog of hits getting everyone on their feet at the after-party.

Usher had a ton of people "caught up" during his Super Bowl LVIII halftime show ... including Ne-Yo -- who tells TMZ Sports the R&B legend's performance was top five of all time!

Ne-Yo made the claim following the Big Game out in Las Vegas ... after Usher wowed the Allegiant Stadium crowd with his singing, dancing and skating skills.

"I liked it!" Ne-Yo told us. "I liked it a lot!"

The "Miss Independent" crooner wasn't the only one who loved what Usher did while singing alongside Alicia Keys, Ludacris and Lil Jon ... Janelle Monae also said she was a big fan of the spectacle.

In fact, she said the act should put Usher squarely in the discussion when it comes time to talk about music's GOATs.

"So proud of him," the 38-year-old singer said. "I love you, Usher!"

Of course, there were some haters ... including boxing star Gervonta Davis, who wasn't pleased with the way Usher caressed Keys during their rendition of "My Boo."

But, Keys' husband, Swizz Beatz, sure appeared to have no issue with it ... and with two other music icons shoveling praise his way Sunday -- it looks like Usher doesn't need to let this one burn one bit.

Swizz Beatz Usher, Alicia Were Great Focus On the Show, Not PDA!!!

Usher and Alicia Keys got up close and personal during the Super Bowl Halftime show ... a little too close for some people's comfort, Alicia's husband is perfectly fine with it, it seems.

Swizz Beatz not only wasn't offended, but he's kinda laughing off all the critics who were outraged on his behalf -- and he's telling them that their focus is in the wrong place ... rather than zoom in the hug-from-behind (from Usher to Alicia), SB says look at what they did!

He writes, "Y’all talking about the wrong damn thing !!! y’all don’t see that amazing dress covering the entire stadium ⚡️🚨😂😂😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨 Tonight’s performance was nothing but amazing with 2 amazing Giants !"

Swizz went on to say ... "Congrats @usher and my love @aliciakeys that song is a classic 🤍 We don’t do negative vibes on this side we make history ✌🏽 Go see GIANTS at @brooklynmuseum it’s open until July blessings."

In other words ... he's not trippin', even though a lot of folks were.

ICYMI ... Usher's performance was buzzing heavy on social media for this particular moment -- namely, him wrapping up Alicia in his arms from behind as they sang their duet, 'My Boo.'

One notable person who commented on it -- boxing star Gervonta Davis ... who suggested he'd use his prizefighting skills to teach Usher a thing or two about boundaries. Boosie Badazz even got self-righteous and demanded Usher publicly apologize.

Indeed, there were some who were legit pissed. But even with those crying foul, you won't get what they're looking for here from Swizz ... he's telling everyone it's really NBD at all.

Cleary, he's comfortable in his relationship with Alicia -- they've been married for years now.

Still, Usher's PDA move caused quite a stir -- and some invoked Keke Palmer's husband to make their point.

Anyhoo, we broke the story on Alicia's SBLVIII cameo ... the two music megastars revamped their 2004 multi-platinum song -- recreating the hot/heavy vibes from the video.

Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce cantan "You Belong With Me" En la fiesta posterior del Super Bowl

una gran historia de amor

Taylor Swift y Travis Kelce están en la cima del mundo después de un final de película en el Super Bowl, y celebraron su amor de manera épica.

La pareja llegó a una fiesta privada en Zouk dentro de Resorts World Las Vegas el domingo por la noche -donde los Chainsmokers se encaron de la música para un club lleno- y uno de los aspectos más destacados fue Tay Tay y Travis cantando una de sus canciones más famosas el uno al otro desde lejos.

Por supuesto, estamos hablando de "You Belong With Me", canción que el dúo de DJs comenzó a tocar y que hizo que Travis saltara a su cabina de inmediato.

Échale un vistazo, el tipo estaba más que feliz de empezar a cantar la conocida melodía, e incluso se volvió hacia Taylor -que estaba en la multitud detrás de él- para darle una serenata desde donde estaba. Ella también lo miraba y le cantaba, el amor se sentía en el aire.
