Let's Watch Bruce Pearl Lip-Sync a Taylor Swift Song in a Wig

Some things are best left unexplained.

Take this footage of Bruce Pearl lip-syncing a Taylor Swift song, for example.

AL.com's Brandon Marcello spotted footage of the Auburn men's basketball coach donning a wig and fake-singing Swift's pop hit "We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together." After watching it, I can confidently say any additional information or context is unnecessary garnish.

This is a 55-year-old man fully invested in delivering the most authentic fake-concert experience possible. This is your moment of Zen:

Pearl loses himself in the music, making the audience believe he will never ever get back together with Auburn women's soccer coach Karen Hoppa, his lip-sync battle opponent. His eyes may have rolled back into his head at one point. It's inspiring.

But if you must know, Pearl's serenade took place at the AUSPYs—an awards ceremony held by the Auburn athletic department at the end of each scholastic year.

Without question, Pearl won everything there was to be won at said event, at least in the lip-syncing category.

Dan is on Twitter. AUSPYs? More like PEARL JAM. I'll see myself out.
