Gracie Abrams, who recently performed with Taylor Swift during her highly anticipated ‘Eras’ Tour, shared a lighthearted moment with NFL star Travis Kelce that helped ease her nerves before her duet with the pop icon. Abrams, the 24-year-old daughter of renowned director JJ Abrams, took the stage at Wembley last month to perform Swift’s hit “US” in front of a sold-out crowd.
However, as she prepared for her big moment, Abrams felt a wave of anxiety. It was then that Kelce, who was also set to make an appearance, offered some comedic relief. “He’s like, ‘I’ll mess up so that you look really good,'” Abrams recalled with a smile, sharing their backstage interaction on SiriusXM.

Abrams went on to describe the supportive community she experienced among those involved in Swift’s tour. “It’s just a community of really supportive people,” she said, adding that everyone, from the performers to the audience, shared a deep connection to Swift’s music. “It’s a really magical thing,” she added.
Abrams’ new album, ‘The Secret of Us,’ has also been receiving well-deserved recognition. According to the UK Officials Charts Company, the album outsold Swift’s ‘The Tortured Poets Department’ in the month of June, showcasing Abrams’ growing success in the music industry.
