Eminem as he opened the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards on Wednesday night in New York.
The superstar, 34, was filmed by MTV standing up in her seat and dancing inside the UBS Arena while the rapper, 51, performed his latest single Houdini.
She grooved along to the song’s catchy lyrics with her close pal Margaret Qualley, who is married to Swift’s longtime producer Jack Antonoff.
Swift is the night’s leading nominee with 12 nominations and she wowed on the red carpet in an edgy green plaid frock — sparking speculation she may drop the re-recording of her 2018 Reputation album.
Her appearance at the annual ceremony comes less than 24 hours after she publicly endorsed Kamala Harris in the 2024 United States presidential race.

‘Shes just so supportive of everyone we love,’ one fan gushed on X (formerly Twitter) during the show.
‘Even Taylor Swift knows real music,’ another remarked.
Moments after Eminem’s peformance, Taylor took home the first award of the night — Song Of The Summer — for Fortnight featuring Post Malone.
