Continuing his monologue, Liu stated, "Finally, for the most iconic pop culture moment of the year, who could forget that one little movie about a blonde American icon that had the entire country dressing up, dancing the night away, and making huge waves at the box office. I'm talking of course about 'Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour movie'."

Continuing his monologue, Liu thought that the audience might have thought he was talking about 'Barbie' and conveyed, "Oh, I'm sorry did you think I was gonna say the other- no, no. Look, I was a swiftie long before I was Ken. Okay? Just wanted to be super clear where my loyalties lay. I'm a 1989 baby so Taylor and I, we're bonded."
