When it comes to social media, Taylor Swift<\/a> keeps things pretty low-key. Sure, she shows up for the big moments, like announcing her latest album<\/a>, reclaiming her masters<\/a> or revealing her engagement to Travis Kelce<\/a>, but we usually don’t get much else than that. Turns out, the pop superstar is lurking just like the rest of us and she proved it in the most delightful way.<\/p>\n

Swift, 35, recently popped up twice in the comments section of two different Backstreet Boys<\/a>\u2019s Instagram posts and the internet is absolutely losing it.<\/p>\n

On Thursday, October 23, Nick Carter shared a video of himself dancing to a mashup of Swift\u2019s \u201cElizabeth Taylor\u201d and the boy band\u2019s 1997 classic \u201cEverybody (Backstreet\u2019s Back).\u201d<\/p>\n

The video text read, \u201cName a better mashup,\u201d while Nick captioned it, \u201cEVERYBODY\u2019s gotta love this mashup! We know we do @TaylorSwift.\u201d<\/p>\n

Swift couldn\u2019t resist and her response was pure fangirl energy, writing, \u201cOH THE SQUEAL I JUST SQUEALED.\u201d The comment has since racked up over 100K likes.<\/p>\n

But that wasn\u2019t her first run-in with a Backstreet Boy that week. Just a few days earlier, on October 19, AJ McLean had posted a Reel of himself lip-syncing to the same mashup, writing, \u201cCome on now, you know one of us had to! @taylorswift.\u201d<\/p>\n

Taylor\u2019s comment? \u201cOH HI AJ OH MY GOD.\u201d That one\u2019s currently sitting near 200K likes.<\/p>\n

Fans in the comments went wild on both posts.<\/p>\n

One person wrote, \u201cLEGENDS SUPPORTING LEGENDS,\u201d while another screamed, \u201cTAYLOR COMMENTED OMGGG.\u201d<\/p>\n

A third added, \u201cMy Backstreet Boys heart and Taylor Swift heart are both so freakin\u2019 happy,\u201d and someone else perfectly summed it up, \u201cThe millennial moms who grew up obsessed with BSB and now love Taylor need this remix on repeat!\u201d<\/p>\n

Looks like Taylor Swift\u2019s not just watching, she\u2019s engaging and honestly, I love this crossover energy.<\/p>\n
