Watch it: Wiz Khalifa hints at Taylor Swift helping his ‘Password’ partner on the game show hosted by Keke Palmer

Wiz Khalifa turns to pop superstar Taylor Swift and asks her to help him and his partner win the NBC game show “Password.”

“Wiz, it’s up to you whether you’re going to play or not,” host Keke Palmer announces in Us Weekly’s exclusive first look at the Tuesday, July 2 episode, which sees Khalifa, 36, take on Jimmy Fallon.

In the clip below, the announcer reveals that the password is “Swift,” leaving the audience gasping. Both Palmer, 30, and Khalifa immediately see the perfect clue. “I know what to say!” shouts Palmer.

The “Black and Yellow” rapper decides to “shoot the moon” this round, meaning he will only give his partner one clue. A correct guess would earn him eight points, which is crucial since he is nine points behind. This move could significantly increase his chances of winning the $25,000 prize.

The game show audience erupts in excitement over Khalifa’s bold move, but Fallon, 49, is less enthusiastic, realizing the benefit of using such a famous name. “Come on, dude!” Fallon exclaims in frustration, standing up.

Palmer responds to Khalifa’s decision and asks him to give his clue. “Taylor,” says Khalifa and nods to his partner, who quickly replies, “Quickly!”

Then the buzzer sounds, confirming the correct answer. Khalifa’s partner jumps up from her seat as he sits back, smiling. They celebrate with a victory dance, much to Fallon’s annoyance. Fallon, however, admits that he would have made the same decision if he were in Khalifa’s position.

While there are many well-known Taylors, none are as iconic as Swift, a fact that Khalifa is well aware of. Both Swift, 34, and Khalifa have long been well-known figures in the music industry.

And fun fact: I bet you forgot that Wiz’s banner is the Taylor Gang and that Ty Dolla $ign has been signed to them for ages.
