00:00 "Kelsey Ballerini and Taylor Swift, you know, seeing them dance to that made my heart warm."
00:06 Taylor Swift isn't sorry.
00:08 She rocked out hardcore at the MTV VMAs to Demi Lovato's performance.
00:17 And Demi, she loved it.
00:27 On Tuesday, the "Heart Attack" singer performed a medley of her greatest hits with a rock 'n' roll
00:32 twist.
00:34 And no one was loving it more than Taylor, who was spotted in the audience,
00:52 dancing and singing her heart out.
00:56 "When I don't care, I'm ready to go."
01:01 "I think people try things on the VMAs they would never try anywhere else."
01:04 After a Taylor fan account tweeted a video of the Grammy winner dancing to Demi's track
01:09 "Cool for the Summer," Demi replied to the post with a series of heart-covered smiley faces.
01:15 "It means so much to me to have the recognition."
01:18 And she addressed the A-list audience's reaction to her performance during an Instagram Live.
01:24 "It was nice to see everybody enjoying it in the audience. Kelsey Valerini and Taylor Swift,
01:30 you know, seeing them dance to that made my heart warm."
01:34 All this is worth noting, since Taylor, Demi and their mutual friend Selena Gomez
01:40 used to be friends, but seemingly had a falling out.
01:44 "I just like don't really look at things online, what people say, and I just wish for the best."
01:48 In 2016, Demi made several comments about Taylor's famous girl squad not having "normal bodies,"
01:56 after previously insulting Taylor's then-lack of public political activism.
02:01 Demi was previously managed by Scooter Braun, a noted public enemy of Taylor's,
02:10 after buying her masters in 2019, prompting her to re-record her early albums.
02:17 Demi and Scooter have since parted ways, and the Disney Channel alum has changed her tune,
02:23 vocalizing her support for Taylor in recent years.
02:26 Like in 2019, when Demi praised Taylor's album Lover on social media.
02:32 "Life's too short for women not to support other women,
02:36 especially when women release great music. Great job @taylorswift."
02:41 "I don't understand how you can not fangirl about that."
02:44 Taylor's response? "This is so awesome and put the biggest smile on my face. Thank you."
02:51 As for that VMAs performance?
02:53 Demi included her track "Cool for the Summer," which she
03:06 recently revealed is actually about a famous woman.
03:10 "It's not someone famous, right?"
03:11 "What if she is?"
03:13 "I'm curious, is she?"
03:14 "Yeah."
03:15 "Oh, she is?"
03:16 "This was never public?"
03:18 "No."
03:18 "Oh my God, you two sneaking around, you with another famous woman sneaking around?"
03:22 Demi, who came out as bisexual in 2015, is currently dating musician Jutes.
03:30 And while we may never know who inspired her hit song, we do know one thing,
03:35 there's lots of love between Taylor and Demi. And women supporting women never goes...
03:41 "Take me out, just take me out."
