"Your on fire sam.Your dream are coming true.Omg me and my wife can't wait to see you in April ❤️," another penned while a third exclaimed, "Living for this." Meanwhile, a fourth wrote, "I CANNOT HANDLE THIS."

As fans wait for season two, it is worth recalling an earlier report by The Blast that detailed how the "Sex and the City" alum Sarah Jessica Parker put fans into an absolute panic with an "AJLT" plot twist. 

Fans would recall that Carrie Bradshaw- a character played by SJP and her podcast producer, Franklyn Hernandez shared a passionate kiss in the elevator before the last episode ended.

However, the actress alluded that season two would start differently than fans intended. She shared photos of Carrie and Aiden Shaw- played by John Corbett- in the street, embracing and kissing each other passionately. A major plot twist as Aiden was Carrie's love interest throughout the "Sex and the City" series.

Captioning the jaw-dropping post, she wrote, "This. Is. Not. A. Drill. X, SJ," which caused many celebrities to flood her comment section with cute reactions. Gwyneth Paltrow commented, "NO WAYYYYY," Andy Cohen wrote, "I'm freaking."

The clothing retailer, Old Navy, said, "Carrie in her Bennifer era!!!" "Please don't play with our emotions like this on a Thursday," Lena Waithe reacted.

What was supposed to be a fantastic night for the LGBTQ+ community turned into a debate on social media by individuals who got upset over Smith's "Unholy" Grammy Performance. 

As the song's name suggests, the "Like I Can" singer put on a risqué show, but many people were displeased with the devil horns and bloody red outfits they incorporated into their performance.

The Blast noted that fans were even more upset when they discovered Pfizer sponsored the entire Grammy ceremony. Someone wrote, "To make matters worse, the Grammys award show that featured Sam Smith's debauchery was sponsored by none other than Pfizer." 

Alongside an old picture of Smith, another internet user wrote, "What happened in the last 6 years?! Clearly something not normal!" A dramatic fan noted:

However, many more laughed at the outrage with one Twitter user joking, "Sam Smith & Kim Petras got Republicans mad today! Maybe I will give unholy a stream today."
