Forget Taylor Swift and her squad, this story of three BFFs is going to give you total friendship goals.

On Saturday lifelong friends Gladys Butler, Ruth Hammett and Bernice Underwood celebrated turning 100 years old together.

According to The Washington Post, the trio were all born in either June or July of 1916, met as children and have been friends ever since. They even went on to have babies in the same year, 1933.

This weekend friends and family marked the amazing celebration by throwing a party in their honour, where a fourth best friend, who sadly didn’t live to see her 100th birthday was also celebrated with a painting of her sitting with the birthday gals.

During the 90 minute ceremony, the women shared a half hour video in which they discussed the ups and downs of their life so far and imparted some wisdom to pass on to the younger generation.

Friends and family went on to share personal pictures and memories of the three besties over the years. But possibly the most exciting moment came when Oprah Winfrey recorded a personal message for the trio wishing them "the grandest and greatest" birthday and ending the whole thing with a “Hallelujah.”

Happy Birthday ladies! Altogether now ‘For they are jolly good fellows, for they are jolly good fellows, for they are jolly good FELLOWS. And so say all of us!’
