In conversation with Sofia Coppola for ‘ELLE,’ Abrams also opened up about how she and Swift reacted to their Grammy nomination for “Us”
Gracie Abrams still can’t get over the fact that she was on the Eras Tour.
In an interview with Sofia Coppola for ELLE, the “Risk” musician, 25, discussed the thrill of being a ble to open for Taylor Swift on the road.
“To be in the same orbit as Taylor and her entire team, from her dancers, to her band, to the crew, being in the same vicinity as a group of people who are so committed to making something extraordinary happen every single night of the show, it’s a privilege to see it all go down,” Abrams told the publication.
The singer/songwriter also opened up about how she and Swift, 35, reacted to their Grammy nod for their collaboration “Us,” which was nominated for best pop duo/group performance.
Abrams recalled having “many gasps of celebration” after receiving news about her Grammy nomination while she was painting a friend’s birthday card and FaceTiming her mom.
The “Tough Love” musician also said that she and Swift had “a fun, squeal-y conversation on the phone” after finding out about their nomination.
“It’s such a crazy, full-circle thing to be nominated for a Grammy with Taylor, who I grew up idolizing. Especially all of her moments at the Grammys over the years have been so ingrained and burned in my head,” the “Blowing Smoke” artist said.
In September, Abrams spoke to Who What Wear about debuting The Secret of Us track live with Swift at Wembley Stadium in London in June.
“We wrote it the way that we played it at Wembley,” Abrams told the publication.
She added: “To see somebody have the ability to, in a stadium, make it feel like you and her are the only two people there, that was hugely important for me to see.”
