Taylor Swift couldn't keep it in much longer while performing a song where she allegedly forgives Kanye West for his previous antics.
Viral footage shows the singer, 33, let out a huge laugh in front of her fans during her ongoing Eras Tour at Lumen Field in Seattle on Saturday (22 July). Take a look at Taylor's hilarious reaction below:
So - for those unaware - the apparent beef all started at the 2009 MTV Video Music Awards when Kanye interrupted Taylor's acceptance speech after winning the Best Video by a Female Artist award.

“Thank you so much!” Taylor said. “I always dreamed about what it would be like to maybe win one of these some day, but I never actually thought it would have happened.
"I sing country music so thank you so much for giving me a chance to win a VMA award.”
But before she could finish, Kanye stormed the stage and grabbed the mic from her hand.
He said: “Yo Taylor, I’m really happy for you, I’ll let you finish, but Beyoncé has one of the best videos of all time. One of the best videos of all time!”

A young and mortified Taylor - who was just 19 at the time - was left speechless and so was Beyoncé, who was sitting in the crowd.
It didn't stop there either, as later in 2016, Ye dropped controversial track 'Famous', featuring Rihanna, where he raps about that moment in 2009, claiming that he 'made that b**ch famous'.
The rapper also said he felt like he and 'Taylor might still have sex'.

Also, in the music video to the song, Kanye is seen lying in bed naked alongside his ex-wife Kim Kardashian and a prosthetic Taylor, who is topless.
Though Kim had alleged that they had got permission from Taylor to release the song, Taylor herself claimed she never made an agreement, prompting Kim to hit back with a shady tweet, which read: "Wait it's legit National Snake Day?!?!?They have holidays for everybody, I mean everything these days!"
A year later, Taylor released 'This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things', which was believed to be a 'forgiveness' track aimed at Kanye and Kim.

Fast forward to 2023, while performing the song on Saturday, Taylor was filmed suddenly bursting into fits of laughter while singing the lyrics: "And here's to you, 'cause forgiveness is a nice thing to do'."
As the audience applauded, she confessed: "I can't even say it with a straight face."
I think we all know what she means by that!

Well, as Taylor continues to go from strength to strength in her career, Kanye has lost millions of dollars after being dropped by several companies for his horrific praise on Nazis and Adolf Hitler during an appearance on Alex Jones' show 'Infowars' in December 2022.
"He didn't kill six million Jews," Kanye said. "I like Hitler. The Holocaust is not what happened.
"Hitler has a lot of redeeming qualities. Every human being has something of value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler."
Shocking stuff.
