Grammys 2020: BTS to join Lil Nas X, Yoongi's absence in Ariana Grande photo sparks wild fan theories
There is nothing like spotting your favorites together to make your heart swell with absolute glee. BTS fans all over the world are losing their collective minds right now after a single tweet from Ariana Grande captioned "look who i bumped into at rehearsal".
Hint: It was BTS!
BTS ARMY first noticed something was brewing when images from the band's 'Map of the Soul' rehearsals were posted on their official Instagram account. Hawk-eyed fans were quick to notice similarities between the stage they were on and Grammy rehearsal stages from past years.
Their suspicions were soon rewarded when Lil Nas X announced he would be performing 'Old Town Road' at the 62nd Grammy Awards — and he was bringing a whole host of performers with him on stage including Diplo, Young Thug, Billy Ray Cyrus and BTS!
Recent heartache due to BTS not being nominated for any awards is still fresh, but the news of them performing has lifted spirits dramatically. With Ariana Grande's tweet, it is confirmed — the boys will take the stage at the 2020 Grammys.
But once again, fans were quick to spot something amiss. Member Yoongi (stage name Suga) was missing from the picture with Ariana Grande.
Soon after, #WhereIsYoongi began trending, leading to some hilarious speculation from fans as to what might have happened.
One user photoshopped Yoongi into an image with the Avengers stating he was busy "saving the world", while others have reworked the original Grande image in a work of art that even BTS would be proud of.
One fan has pitched a finding Yoongi animated movie while the rest of the fandom is jumping right into action to get their boys back, including printing flyers to streamline the search. Some demanded answers: "Y'ALL HAVE 5 SECONDS TO TELL ME WHERE IS YOONGI!" shouts an ARMY in the distance.
Amidst the chaos, some fans are asking some valid questions such as "Did Yoongi take the picture??" while others claim to have cracked the mystery — "People be saying 'where's Yoongi' but I'm over here like it's obvious he's Ariana."
The trending hashtag has hit #2 worldwide and leaves us all wondering the exact same thing — WHERE IS YOONGI?!
