Fans think they've worked out what Beyoncé said to Taylor Swift at this year's Grammys.
The two stars were in attendance during the glitziest night of the music industry, where both were nominated in several categories including Album of the Year, which ultimately went to Beyoncé for Cowboy Carter.
Queen Bey also took home the trophy for Best Country Album with her eighth project, a reimagining of Americana music acknowledging the overlooked contributions of Black artists to the genre.
Swift, who didn't win in any of the categories she was nominated for, presented Beyoncé with the golden award and the two hugged on stage before the speech.

Taking to Twitter/X, one person deciphered what the 'Halo' singer told Swift, trying to read their lips during the exciting moment.
“You look so beautiful,” the social media user speculated Beyoncé told Swift in a February 3 video. “I love you.”
While there's no way to know for sure what the two women said to each other, judging by their body language the interaction appeared warm and friendly.
Attempting to read the stars' lips at this year's Grammys didn't stop there, as an expert suggested they found out what Jay-Z told his wife Beyoncé moments before she got on stage to accept the award for Album of the Year.
Seemingly shocked, Queen Bey headed for the stage after hugging her husband and their daughter, Blue Ivy. The couple also share twins Rumi and Sir.
When the pair hugged, Jay-Z leant forward to whisper something in Bey's ear, with expert NJ Hickling thinking the rapper said: “Woah woah woah. Bout time! You’re a top girl.”
After being nominated for Best Album several times, Beyoncé finally won at the weekend, becoming the first Black woman to earn the coveted prize since Lauryn Hill in 1999 with The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill.
"Wow I really was not expecting this," Beyoncé said when accepting the award.
"I want to thank God, oh my God, that I'm able to still do what I love after so many years."
She went on to add: "I'd like to thank all of the incredible country artists that accepted this album. We worked so hard on it. I think sometimes genre is a code word to keep us in our place as artists. And I just want to encourage people to do what they're passionate about, and to say, 'Stay persistent.'"
