Fans of SZA and Taylor Swift have been buzzing with excitement after their recent Grammy Award moments together. Over the past two years, the two stars have been spotted linking up at the prestigious event, leaving fans wondering if something big was on the horizon. And now, SZA has given us all something to look forward to! During her appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show, the R&B sensation opened up about her interactions with Taylor—and even hinted at a possible collaboration that could shake the music industry.
A Conversation That Could Lead to Magic
Sitting down with Jennifer Hudson, SZA couldn’t help but gush over Taylor Swift’s presence and energy. “Every time she walks up to me or approaches me, I’m just like, ‘All right, this is happening, because that’s fully Taylor Swift,’” she shared with a laugh. But beyond the excitement of meeting a global superstar, their conversations have been surprisingly creative.
“I think what I mentioned was that I would love to write with her and love to build some things together,” SZA revealed. And the best part? Taylor seemed totally open to it. If this dream collab comes to life, it could be one of the most talked-about musical pairings in recent history.
Storytelling at Its Finest
One thing that makes this potential partnership even more exciting is the fact that both SZA and Swift are known for their incredible storytelling. Whether it’s through emotionally charged R&B ballads or poetic country-pop lyrics, they each have a way of connecting with listeners on a deep level.
“I love her storytelling,” SZA admitted. “She was open to it. I think she’s awesome. She’s so bossed up.”
SZA has always been vocal about her admiration for fellow songwriters, and in this interview, she didn’t just praise Taylor—she also showed love to other rising artists like Chappell Roan, Doechii, and Gracie Abrams. “There’s something about that type of storytelling,” she said. “It’s a deep inner storytelling that reflects their human experience.”
A Grammy Moment to Remember
This admiration between SZA and Taylor isn’t just a one-sided thing. Earlier this year, when SZA took home the award for Best R&B Song for her hit Snooze, she spotted Taylor in the audience and couldn’t help but acknowledge her. In a moment that quickly went viral, SZA smiled and said, “Hi, Taylor!” as she accepted her award, then added, “I love you.”
If that wasn’t enough to warm fans’ hearts, another highlight from the night was when SZA, Taylor, and Lizzo all posed together for a new photo—one that will undoubtedly go down as an iconic moment in pop culture history.
Facing Fears at the Super Bowl
Beyond her exciting interactions with Taylor Swift, SZA has been making bold moves in her career. Another major moment this year? Her surprise appearance during Kendrick Lamar’s 2025 Super Bowl Halftime Show.
Although her time on stage was brief—just 30 seconds—SZA said it was a life-changing experience. “It ended up being the perfect amount of time for me to face a fear, try something brand new, get my feet wet in a space that I pray to be allowed to grace again,” she reflected. “I’m just grateful. God gives you a little bit and shows you what’s possible.”
What’s Next?
With SZA’s fearless approach to new experiences and her growing connection with Taylor Swift, fans are left wondering: Could a collaboration actually be in the works? Given that both artists have been open about their admiration for each other, the possibility feels more real than ever.
One thing’s for sure—if SZA and Taylor Swift ever join forces, it’s going to be huge! Until then, we’ll just have to keep our fingers crossed and hope that their creative magic finds its way into the studio soon.
