Teen's message to mom who starred in Taylor Swift's new music video will make you cry
Moms are the freaking best and do not receive nearly enough praise for all the good they do in this world. Oddly, it took Taylor Swift's new music video for "Delicate" to remind me of this fact.
After Swift's music video premiered during the iHeartRadio Music Awards on March 11, 17-year-old Megumi Cheng tweeted a heartwarming message of praise to her mother, Junko Cheng, who made a cameo in the video.
"This is my mom. She’s 57 and felt like pursuing acting recently... mostly for shits and giggles, but here she is. So beautiful," Cheng's teenage daughter tweeted alongside three still shots of her from the music video.

Cheng played a woman applying lipstick in an elevator who's standing directly in front of Taylor at the time, but can’t see her because she's become invisible to the world. The theme of the music video was a nod to Swift dropping out of the public eye over the course of the past year.
In response to Megumi's tweet, Junko strung together the most mom-like words to perhaps ever exist and when I read them I nearly teared up.
"I actually made my teenage daughter proud. #winning," she wrote.

How freaking precious is this mother-daughter relationship!? Let's ask the rest of Twitter — oh wait, they're too busy sobbing and congratulating Junko on setting #MomGoals for the world.

Move over Lorelai and Rory, Junko and Megumi are OUT HERE.
Junko, who's also a singer, just booked her first acting role this year, according to Billboard, and doesn't seem to be slowing down any time soon.
BRB, calling my mom to tell her how much I love her.
