On the list of friendships we never thought we’d see, this pairing is at the top. 

Hearts on social media have swelled over the unlikely relationship between Penn Badgley and Cardi B. While the two don’t run in the same circles, they clearly have a mutual appreciation for each other. 

It all began with a press conference to promote the third season of You

Badgley praised the Grammy winner for her ability to form positive connections with her fans on social media, saying, “She has such an authentic relationship, and it’s this incredibly nuanced place to be.”

Cardi saw a clip of his kind words and excitedly retweeted it with the caption, “OOOOMMFFFGGGGGG HE KNOWS ME !!! OMMMGGGG!!!!!! Yoooo like I’m famous famous.”

We’re not sure who was more excited as the You actor responded to the Rumors” rapper with a tweet that expressed he was speechless. Cute!

The appreciation fest continued with the pair changing their Twitter profile pictures to ones of each other. 

We just hope no one told Love Quinn…
