Taylor Swift’s "Shake It Off" Set to ’80s Aerobics Video Wins Internet Forever

Taylor Swift’s smash single “Shake It Off” has become so ubiquitous since its release earlier this fall that it somehow even managed to travel through time. How else do you explain her album sales, which look like totals from a bygone era, or the fact that an ’80s aerobics routine managed to use the hit track? Or so you might think, thanks to YouTube user Thomas Jung, who combined this ’80s video with the song, making for just about the best video maybe ever: Taylor Swift Presents 1989 Aerobics Championship – Shake It Off The choreography, originally performed at the 1988 Crystal Light National Aerobic Championship hosted by Alan Thicke, syncs perfectly to “Shake It Off.” We’re not sure what’s funnier, how well Swift’s song fits the video or the fact that this was, at one point, an actual thing that existed somewhere in civilization. It’s almost as if Swift (who was born in 1989 and whose already wildly successful album 1989 was released last week) wrote the tune while watching this clip. We can certainly see her dancing like this in the studio or at home. Swift herself caught wind of the video Friday, tweeting a link and the caption: “Sneak peak at the official ‘Shake It Off’ choreography for the 1989 World Tour.” Ha! She’s the best. 27 Taylor Swift Dancing Gifs from “Shake It Off” 1. Bring It On What do you have to say about cheerleaders NOW, Taylor?

Patricia Velasquez Fired on Celebrity Apprentice

On this week’s Celebrity Apprentice, tensions ran high on the women’s team after the dramatic firing of Tia Carrere for her failings on the previous task. So could the reeling ladies pick up their game, pull it together to get back to their winning ways? And who did Donald Trump end up firing at the end? No, and Patricia Velasquez. Sunday’s task was throwing a party for Crystal Light’s new mock-tinis, and though the men’s team members admittedly don’t like to party, they got the job done here. The two teams were judged on creativity, brand messaging and the overall party atmosphere, and Clay Aiken, the farthest thing from a clubber, led them to the win. On the losing side, Aubrey O’Day decided to bring Patricia Velasquez and Dayana Mendoza back into the boardroom with her. Then Aubrey broke out the tears. Clearly it worked, as Donald Trump decided to donate $10,000 to her charity AND save her from elimination. Patricia got fired due to the errors on the signage. Ouch. Was it the right decision? Are you sorry to see Velasquez go?
