Teyana Taylor Explains What Really Happened in Viral Clip of Leonardo DiCaprio Discussing ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ at the Golden Globes

Trending on Billboard The hilarious video of Leonardo DiCaprio animatedly discussing KPop Demon Hunters with someone at his Golden Globes table is absolutely golden - but Teyana Taylor wants you to know that he wasn’t talking to her. While guesting on The Tonight Show on Wednesday (Jan. 14) - three days after the award show - the star cleared up the misconception that her One Battle After Another costar had been poking fun at her for not knowing who the stars of KPop Demon Hunters were in a clip that had the internet in stitches this week. In reality, Taylor told host Jimmy Fallon she’s been a fan of the hit Netflix film for a long time, because “my kids’ favorite song is ‘Golden,’ so I was, like, really excited.” “I had to call Leo, I’m like, ‘I wasn’t asking you ...,'” she explained. “I knew exactly what K-pop was, because Chase [Infiniti] taught me. I was like, ‘You can’t be talking to me - were you talking to me? ‘Cause I already told people you was talking to me.'” Here’s what really happened, according to the singer-actress. “So apparently, he had two KPop Demon Hunters conversations that night!” she said, laughing. “ KPop Demon Hunters was just in his mouth all night. I’m like, ‘Who else was you kiki-ing with like that?’ Literally, that’s how we kiki. So I had like a little friendly jealousy. I was like, ‘Who else are you chewing your invisible gum with?'” “He don’t even remember who he was talking to,” Taylor added. “Yeah, it wasn’t me. I knew exactly who KPop Demon Hunters was.” Both the All’s Fair actress and KPop Demon Hunters won big at the Golden Globes on Sunday night (Jan. 11). While the former won her first-ever Globe, taking home the prize for best supporting actress thanks to her performance in One Battle After Another , the latter picked up best original song for eight-week Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper “Golden.” Taylor is also up for best R&B album at this year’s Grammys for Escape Room , a track from which - “Hard Part” - she performed on Tonight with Lucky Daye. The pair went toe to toe singing buttery riffs while sitting in rotating lounge chairs. Watch Taylor’s full interview with Fallon above, and check out her performance with Daye below.
