Rachel Zegler, a 24-year-old actress renowned for her ardent fandom of Taylor Swift, made a revelation that has stirred up excitement among all Swifties. In a viral video clip, the young star, who is currently captivating audiences as Eva Peron in the London Palladium's production of Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's musical masterpiece 'Evita,' was approached by an eager fan after a thrilling performance. The fan posed the all-important question that every Swiftie longs to know: what is Zegler's favorite Taylor Swift song?
The 'Hunger Games' actress paused for a moment, lost in contemplation, before uttering the words that would send her fellow fans into a tizzy – "Cowboy Like Me," a gem from Swift's often-overlooked album 'Evermore.' The room erupted in gasps of astonishment and joyous cheers, as the 'Snow White' actress continued to gracefully sign autographs with a radiant smile.
Once the video hit the internet, Swifties flocked to express their amazement and delight at Zegler's choice, which deviated from the norm of 'Blank Space' or 'Style,' two of Swift's most ubiquitous hits from her '1989' album. One enthusiastic Swiftie wrote, "I adore it when someone doesn't go for the obvious choices!" Another fan echoed, "She possesses impeccable taste," while another agreed, "Absolutely, fantastic taste!" and exclaimed, "YESSS…she's as authentic as they come. I adore 'Cowboy Like Me!'" Another commentator remarked, "I love how genuinely passionate she is about being a Swiftie."
Zegler has repeatedly showered praise on Taylor Swift on social media platforms, her admiration evident for the Eras Tour performer. Prior to a Sabrina Carpenter concert on Sunday evening, she was even spotted belting out the lyrics to 'I Can Do It With a Broken Heart' from Swift's 'The Tortured Poets Department' album, her fervent fandom shining bright.
