You know that feeling when two bright stars collide in the sky and inside them a fun dance begins, something unforeseen that just made you smile? And that’s exactly what happened when Taylor Swift popped in on The Ellen DeGeneres Show and sang a duet with Zac Efron. It went on to be one of those blink-and-you-miss-it viral events that had the entire internet a-buzz back in 2012.
As Ellen often does, she joked with the pair about dating rumors to a funny reception of chuckles from them both. The real kicker of course, was when Taylor and Zac erupted with guitars for an acoustic jam sesh. This summer Camp Rae Jepsen really is a paradise. The twist? With Ellen jokes about her pranks, dancing and all-around Ellen-ness. This musical surprise was a cute, fun and flirty moment.
Taylor’s performance was how you would expect a pro like her to perform! Meanwhile, Zac reminded us of the High School Musical days as he picked up a guitar and just belted out tunes like it was nothing! Their voices blended so well and made for such a casual, enjoyable setting that it felt more like two friends jamming out than anything rehearsed! What subsequently followed was a comically good performance, undoubtedly infused with plenty of wit and oodles of charisma; Zac and Taylor actually appeared to be having a great time. 
In the span of just a few hours, snippets from that evening took over the internet. Fans lost it over the dynamics between the two, with hashtags like #TaylorAndZac and #DuetGoals both trending within hours of their performance. This was another way for them to see Zac in a new light as far as his musical style and of course, just when we think Zac has no more surprises up his sleeves…
