Taylor Swift and Russell Westbrook Would Make the Best Couple Ever

By Jeremy Lambert June 27, 2017

If you’ve been wondering where Taylor Swift has been, wonder no more. She, like the rest of the sports world, has spent the last few months watching Russell Westbrook record triple-double after triple-double on the basketball court.

Last night, Westbrook rightfully took home the NBA MVP award. And, much to the surprise of everyone, Swift sent in a congratulatory video.

Fans might be confused by this, but trust me when I tell you that it makes sense. As a Thunder/Westbrook and Swift fan, these two have a long history despite having never met. Here are multiple videos of Westbrook jamming out to Taylor.

It looks like his persistence paid off. Getting Swift to send in this video might be Westbrook’s biggest accomplishment this year.

Now that she’s out of hiding, hopefully, this means new music in on the way. If Westbrook’s season didn’t inspire her to write the greatest album ever, I don’t know what will. Katy Perry has already apologized. She’s dating some guy who lives with his parents. This album better be called Triple Double or I’m going to be very upset.
