The Rolls Royce Babygraphics department might have gotten a bit carried away during a performance at Tuesday's Brit Awards in London because everyone freaked out that the band The 1975 had been caught in an elaborate, on-air hacking fiasco.
SEE ALSO: Katy Perry's Brit Awards performance included a sneaky jab at TrumpTweets started popping up from concerned viewers who thought the mean text cards that took over the screen during the band's performance weren't supposed to be part of the show.

It turns out the concerned tweeters just hadn't seen the video the British band's performance was based on. The group's song, The Sound, uses the same pink-and-white text cards that popped up during their live performance.
As their true fans were quick to point out, if anyone had seen the video they would understand they were very much not hacked.
