English actor Joe Alwyn began trending on Twitter after his longtime partner Taylor Swift walked the red carpet at the 2023 Grammy Awards without him.

On February 5, Swift attended the awards ceremony dressed in a dark blue Roberto Cavalli dress.

As Alwyn's absence made him trend on social media, loyal Swift fans were quick to return to their favorite running gag, wanting to know if Swift's boyfriend can protect her at all costs. This led to the resurgence of the #CanJoeAlywnFight trend on Twitter.

Joe Alwyn and Taylor Swift have been pretty low-key since they began dating in 2016. The Wildest Dreams singer has had her share of infamous incidents in the past at award functions, the most notable being Kanye West interrupting her acceptance speech at the 2009 Video Music Awards.

Now, every time Taylor Swift makes a public appearance, fans flock to the internet to question if Joe Alwyn could fend for his girlfriend if she gets in any trouble.


Joe Alwyn was trending on Twitter after Taylor Swift's appearance

Soon after Taylor Swift appeared on the red carpet of the 2023 Grammy Awards, Joe Alwyn began trending on Twitter. Several users shared videos and photos of the singer with the hashtag CanJoeAlywnFight as the songstress dazzled in a dark blue shimmery dress.

Some users also shared hilarious responses about how Alwyn reacts every time Swift makes a public appearance.

This is not the first time that Alwyn has been asked by ardent Taylor Swift fans if he can protect her and have her back at social events.

The same hashtag began trending on Twitter during the 2022 MTV Europe Music Awards held in Germany in November.

The Blank Space crooner recently released the video of her song Lavender Haze, where she paid tribute to Alwyn by including the constellations of their zodiac signs, Pisces and Sagittarius (Joe was born on February 21, 1991, while Taylor was born on December 13, 1989).
