Celebrities shed their usually stoic veneer to fully embrace their wild side in the aftermath of the New York Knicks’ historic NBA Finals Game 4 win Wednesday, taking to the hallways of Madison Square Garden and the streets of Manhattan to celebrate the come-from-behind victory.

As usual, superfan Timothée Chalamet led the postgame festivities, dancing around MSG with similarly joyous fans, including Ben Stiller.

Chalamet later ripped off his shirt while raging with Knicks fans as girlfriend Kylie Jenner filmed the action.

Even Taylor Swift and the Haim sisters couldn’t contain their excitement after the Knicks improbably stormed back from a 29-point deficit — fueled, perhaps, by the Wu-Tang Clan’s halftime performance — as Swift and friends lingered on the court following the win and even embraced fans and waved the rally towel on the way back to their ride. Swift reportedly continued the party postgame at a NYC club, according to TMZ.

The last-second win also resulted in unlikely sentences like “Mumford & Sons and Tate McRae celebrate Knicks victory together at Madison Square Garden.”

The Knicks’ win even had Jerry Seinfeld and Larry David atypically enthusiastic.

The rapturous mood spread to the streets of Manhattan, where A$AP Rocky and Rihanna ended up celebrating with Knicks fans and even shooting some hoops.

The Knicks are now one win away from giving long-suffering fans something to really celebrate: their first NBA title since 1973. They’ll aim to win the championship Saturday in San Antonio; expect Stiller and Chalamet to be in attendance.
