Ian McKellen sat down with Yahoo to promote his new movie "Mr. Holmes," and what better way to do that than to read off lyrics to Taylor Swift and Bruno Mars songs? Because Sir Ian can make anything and everything sound important and *Dramatic* -- even when wearing some kind of floral print shirt and beads -- here he is reciting Taylor's "Bad Blood" and Bruno's "Uptown Funk":
There's something almost melancholy and wistful about his repetition of Bruno's "Don't believe me, just watch." He's imploring you. Come on.
But you know who wants in on this? Patrick Stewart. Skipping over Bruno Mars, Sir PatStew tweeted a very polite request to Taylor Swift to join her squad, citing his and Ian's qualifications:
So @IanMcKellen recited Bad Blood and I did Blank Space on @NPRAskMeAnother. May we join the squad, @taylorswift13? https://t.co/liKBfSzIaU

Well, as it turns out, there was a Blank Space in Tay's squad, so she tweeted a fangirl message of her own:
Thanks for reciting my lyrics, @IanMcKellen and @SirPatStew! You've made my day. You two are ULTIMATE Squad Goals: http://pic.twitter.com/pJZY6T5Lq8

Here's Sir Patrick's ridiculously cute response:
OMG I DIE!!! (no really, I might. I'm old.) https://t.co/q4u7FIcMYr

These kings truly are the ultimate squad goals -- and you should check out Moviefone's gallery below for more examples of how they have set the bar for the rest of us. Don't believe me, just watch.Want more stuff like this? Like us on Facebook.
