And then, in the aftermath of their performances, the impossible happened.

They made Taylor Swift tweet!

The songstress has been largely absent from social media since her “that moment when Kanye West secretly records your phone call, then Kim posts it on the Internet” tweet, but the wizardry of the “Final Five” was too much for Swift to resist.

Team captain Aly Raisman responded to the tweet, saying she loves Swift’s “22” and proposing a girls’ shopping day.

You know this can only mean one thing: The Final Five on Swift’s next world tour stage.
