If These 11 Pop Stars Were Emojis, What Would They Be?

The great mystery has been SOLVED! We can finally confirm beyond the shadow of a doubt how Taylor Swift expresses herself via text. In a recent interview with BuzzFeed, Taylor Swift said that her favorite emojis are the "thumbs up, and the wide-eyed surprise face emoji." Everyone who saw that coming from a mile away give yourself a little pat on the back.

If we can so accurately predict what Swift's spirit emoji is, what about other pop stars? Armed with a nothing but a series of hunches and a whole lotta moxie, let's imagine the favorite text-animation symbols of these 11 pop stars.

Beyoncé - Queen

The queen/princess emoji perfectly encapsulates the essence of Beyoncé. Nonplussed, crown on her head, stoically confident of her sovereignty and daring the plebes to challenge it at their own peril.

Rihanna - Smoking Cigarette

The smoking cigarette is a stand-in for one of Rihanna’s alleged wake & bake J’s.

Nicki Minaj - Green Tea

Sipping/spilling tea is arguably Nicki’s favorite pastime, so her emoji would naturally be the handle-free teacup.

Lady Gaga - Applause

‘Cause she lives for the applause, duhhh!

Britney Spears - Grinning Face

The “grinning face” personifies Britney’s polite grin what is always all teeth, and no eyes. Alternatively, she could also be the “confused” face.

Ariana Grande - Smitten Kitten

Grande probably favors the cat face collection in general, so I’ll just make an educated guess that she sends this kitty-in-love to Big Sean all the time. Just for funsies.

Iggy Azalea - Smiling Poop

With her tongue-in-cheek music videos and her ability to laugh at herself, the smiling poop emoji really captures Iggy’s sense of humor. I think we can also all agree that the smiling poop emoji is the best.

Miley Cyrus - Alien

In addition to favoring the aesthetic of the ’90s-looking alien, it’s sometimes difficult to ascertain that Miley Cyrus is in fact from this planet.

Katy Perry - Lollipop

Because an edible, hypnotic wheel of color is Katy Perry’s FUN symbol.

Meghan Trainor - Guitar

Just imagine that this guitar is a bass guitar, and that Meghan Trainor is all about it.

Taylor Swift - Surprised Face

C’mon. She’s a walking version of the surprised face.
