It turns out that Russell Westbrook is a Taylor Swift fan too. The NBA star recently proved he knew some lyrics to the former country darling's newest single "Bad Blood" by posting on Instagram a video of him singing along to it.
The 15-second clip shows the Oklahoma City Thunder point guard sitting in his car while listening to the track before he sings some words on the chorus. "BAD BLOOD!!!! @taylorswift .. Banger!!!!!" he wrote in the caption.
Swift then found out about Westbrook's version of her song and shared it with her followers on Twitter. "So @russwest44 just made my night.....," she wrote alongside a link to the basketball player's video.
