Gracie Abrams, who joined Taylor Swift on stage during her final night in London in June, shared a humorous moment with NFL star Travis Kelce that helped her stay calm before her cameo appearance on the European leg of Swift’s ‘Eras’ Tour.
The 24-year-old singer, daughter of Star Wars director JJ Abrams, performed a duet with Swift for the hit song “US” at Wembley Stadium. Despite her nerves before the introduction to the sold-out crowd, Abrams found solace backstage with Kelce, a moment she recounted during an interview on SiriusXM.
“Before we both went on, we were in the tent, and he went on right before I did—maybe two songs or something,” Abrams explained. “He joked, ‘I’ll mess up so that you look really good.'”
Abrams appreciated Kelce’s support, highlighting the camaraderie among those involved in Swift’s tour. “The thing is, it’s just a community of really supportive people,” Abrams said, according to Billboard. “Truly, everyone, whether you’re in the tent or in the top row in the stadium, is there because there is such deep joy and feeling associated with all of the music that she’s put out over the past 18 years. It’s a really magical thing.”

Abrams’ experience on stage was further enriched by the supportive atmosphere, which she found both comforting and inspiring. The sense of community and shared enthusiasm for Swift’s music helped to create a memorable and positive experience for the young artist.
Adding to her excitement, Abrams’ new album, ‘The Secret of Us,’ has seen significant success. According to the UK Official Charts Company, her album outsold Swift’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department,’ which was the number one album for June.
This accomplishment marks a significant milestone in Abrams’ burgeoning career and underscores her growing popularity in the music industry.
From backstage jitters to on-stage triumphs, Gracie Abrams’ journey with the ‘Eras’ Tour has been a blend of supportive interactions, personal growth, and professional success, setting the stage for a promising future in music.
