Behind-the-Scenes Magic at JYP Entertainment
What makes this collaboration even more exciting is the adorable behind-the-scenes content that Saweetie shared. The video shows her dancing alongside all nine TWICE members inside the iconic JYP Entertainment building, and honestly, the chemistry between them is absolutely infectious.
Watching Saweetie groove to "Superstars" with Nayeon, Jeongyeon, Momo, Sana, Jihyo, Mina, Dahyun, Chaeyoung, and Tzuyu feels like witnessing music history in the making. The casual, fun atmosphere in the video suggests that this collaboration came from a place of genuine mutual respect and artistic excitement rather than just a calculated business move.
The Plot Thickens: Earlier Hints Were Right There
Plot twist alert! Before this official announcement, eagle-eyed fans had already started connecting the dots. Saweetie had previously posted a video of herself dancing with TWICE to their new title track "This Is For," which immediately sparked rumors about a potential collaboration.
Those fan theories weren't just wishful thinking - they were spot on! This proves that sometimes the K-pop detective work that fans do on social media actually pays off. The fact that Saweetie was already vibing with TWICE's music before their official collaboration shows how organic this partnership really is.
Why This Collaboration Is a Game-Changer for Both Artists
This isn't just another celebrity team-up; it's a strategic move that benefits everyone involved. For TWICE, collaborating with Saweetie opens doors to the
American hip-hop
scene and introduces their music to a completely different demographic. Meanwhile, Saweetie gets to tap into the massive, passionate K-pop fanbase that spans across continents.
The timing couldn't be more perfect either. With K-pop's global influence at an all-time high and Western artists increasingly recognizing the power of Korean music, "Superstars" represents exactly the kind of cross-cultural collaboration that today's music landscape demands. It's likely to dominate charts in both Korea and internationally, creating a win-win situation for both parties.
From a cultural perspective, this collaboration also represents the beautiful fusion of different musical traditions. TWICE's polished pop sensibilities combined with Saweetie's bold rap style could very well set the template for future East-West musical partnerships.

South park it there, you can't get free-er
Say what you will about the US, but there's something that is awesome about its idea of freedom: Trey Parker and Matt Stone's animated sitcom South Park 's merciless roast of the American president would be unthinkable in uncle-aunty countries. Even as Trump is seething at depictions of him in bed with Satan and an AI-generated sequence of him getting butt naked in a desert, no one has been tossed into a dungeon. At worst, South Park's parent company Paramount, which signed a $1.5 bn 5-year deal with the creators of the subversive show, will cut its losses after this expensive joke in the form of its new season opener, 'Sermon on the Mount'.The latest episode didn't just poke the presidential bear - it dressed him as a toddler, and sent him on a parade of absurdity so brutal it made stand-up satire look like polite gossip. And, yet, no censorship, no exile, no mysterious disappearance of Parker and Stone. Just outrage, applause, and thoughts about how fat the silver lining still is even in India-emulating Trumpland. You've got to admire a country where mockery isn't just tolerated, it's monetised. It's a celebration of critique and creative combustion. South Park is America's sweaty, profane love letter to liberty - proof that in a truly democratic society, even the most powerful person is fair game for fart jokes and genital takedowns.

Did you know Amitabh Bachchan was replaced by Vinod Khanna in Shaque after 16 flops? Aruna Raje reveals producer didn't want him
Before becoming Shahenshah, Amitabh Bachchan faced numerous setbacks. He was dropped from films like Shaque and Duniya Ka Mela due to his initial box office failures. Director Aruna Raje Patil revealed that Vinod Khanna replaced Bachchan in Shaque. Raza Murad mentioned Sanjay Khan replaced Bachchan in Duniya Ka Mela. Zanjeer became a turning point after Jaya Bhaduri suggested his name. Long before he became the legendary 'Shahenshah' of Bollywood, Amitabh Bachchan faced a string of disappointments that nearly ended his acting journey before it began. With 16 flops behind him, the future superstar was once deemed too risky by producers—so much so that he was replaced in multiple films, including the 1976 thriller Shaque. Why Bachchan was dropped from Shaque In a recent interaction, acclaimed director-editor Aruna Raje Patil revealed that Amitabh was originally considered for the lead in Shaque, but was ultimately replaced by Vinod Khanna due to his struggling box office run at the time. Filmmaker Aruna Raje Patil recently reflected on a pivotal casting change during the making of her 1976 film Shaque. Initially, Amitabh Bachchan was set to star opposite Waheeda Rehman . However, due to his then-unfavourable box office track record—marked by 16 consecutive flops—the film's producer, NB Kamat, was unwilling to move forward with him in the lead role. Faced with the possibility of the film being shelved, the team decided to look for a more bankable star. They eventually approached Vinod Khanna, who was already enjoying commercial success at the time. The actor quickly agreed to take on the role, leading to the replacement of Bachchan just before his breakthrough with Zanjeer in 1973. Another film replacement In a past interview with The Filmy Charcha, veteran actor Raza Murad recalled another instance highlighting Amitabh Bachchan's early struggles in the film industry. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like No annual fees for life UnionBank Credit Card Apply Now Undo He shared that Bachchan was dropped from the film Duniya Ka Mela and replaced by Sanjay Khan due to a series of box office failures. At the time, with 16 flops behind him, distributors reportedly lacked confidence in Bachchan's ability to draw audiences, believing his presence would hurt the film's prospects. It wasn't until Zanjeer turned his fortunes around that his career took a dramatic upward turn, proving that persistence—and timing—can change everything. It was a twist of fate that eventually landed Amitabh Bachchan the lead role in Zanjeer—the film that would redefine his career. As veteran actor Raza Murad recalled, director Prakash Mehra initially approached several top stars of the time, including Dilip Kumar , Dharmendra, Dev Anand, and Rajkumar, but each declined the offer for various reasons. Success of Zanjeer Despite Zanjeer being a hero-centric script, it struggled to find a leading man—until Jaya Bhaduri (later Jaya Bachchan) suggested Amitabh's name. With no other options left, Mehra took a chance on the struggling actor. That stroke of luck, coupled with Bachchan's powerful performance, changed the course of Hindi cinema—and earned him the title of Bollywood's 'Angry Young Man.' After the success of Zanjeer, Amitabh Bachchan's career skyrocketed. He formed a legendary collaboration with writers Salim-Javed, delivering a series of iconic films like Deewaar, Sholay, Kaala Patthar, Trishul, Majboor, Shakti, and Don.
