Twitter is abuzz over the color of a stripey dress posted on Tumblr. Some see it clearly as white and gold, while others see it obviously as blue and black. Which team are you on? Is there a definitive answer? What’s the explanation of these contrasting viewpoints? And why is this even going viral? Here’s how celebs weigh in on the great dress debate.

1. Taylor Swift

I don’t understand this odd dress debate and I feel like it’s a trick somehow. I’m confused and scared. PS it’s OBVIOUSLY BLUE AND BLACK

Guys. I’ve stared at this dress for 5 minutes. Like an idiot. All I see is white and gold. And a satin bolero that shouldn’t be paired w/ it.

Mindy is fueling this firestorm with a stream of witty Twitter comments:

@mindykaling
I think I’m getting so mad about the dress because it’s an assault on what I believe is objective truth.

This dress thing is worse than the Sony hack to me

Wait now we think blue eyed people see it as white and gold #breakingnews

I’m not ready for people to make jokes about the dress yet

Trying to reach my bf to see if he thinks blue/blk or white/gold but apparently he’s “in a meeting”. Does he not get how important this is?

I saw white and gold, then I saw blue and black. Now I’m confused.

Either way… I’m not gonna be wearing that dress.
