Gracie Abrams had a front row seat to the Eras Tour, as she served as one of Taylor Swift’s many opening acts across the over two-year blockbuster tour. Now, the rising star is opening up about what she’s learned from observing the Reputation artist’s life, and specifically the “invasion of privacy” she faces.
Between her debut show as Swift’s opener during the first month of concerts back in the spring of 2023, to her final performance on the Eras Tour stage in December 2024, Gracie Abrams’ star has risen exponentially. During that whole time, she’s been at Taylor Swift’s side, learning from one of the best. That also means she’s witnessed how hard being that famous is, and it comes at a cost, as the “That’s So True” singer told Billboard:
It’s like, I really don’t have it that bad in terms of invasion of privacy, you know what I mean? I feel like I learned a lot from her, obviously, but one of the things that I’ve felt lucky to observe is how extreme it can be [for her]. It helps right-size my own s–t.
