Ellen DeGeneres In Austin Doling Out Tickets To Grammy Awards, But There's A Catch...

AUSTIN, TX — If you want it then you need to put a spin on it, and fast.

Television host and national treasure Ellen DeGeneres tweeted out a message to her legion of fans in Austin on Tuesday, offering a lucky winner tickets to the upcoming Grammy Awards. The catch: You need to get out to the University of Texas at Austin campus in your most glorious and fabulous Beyonce ensemble.

That's right. You need to be dressed like Beyonce in order to be eligible for the prized tickets. This is not fake news, people, but based on Ellen's tweet just before noon today.

If you go, you're not likely to see Ellen herself but her camera crew. She'll partake remotely, as she did a week ago when her television crew visited the Georgia Tech campus to dole out Super Bowl tickets.

But you must go now. Best of luck, but know that there will be others vying for the tickets. So don't ever to thinkin' you're irreplaceable.

By late Tuesday afternoon, a plethora of participants' images from the UT-Austin campus began to appear on social media. Ellen DeGeneres beckoned, and Beyonce fans heeded the call. Behold:
