Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, apart from the small cancellation owing to security reasons, was as smooth as a musical tour harboring millions could go. To attest witness to the same, Graham Norton, during his appearance on the Sherri Shepherd show, recounted his magical experience during the Dublin stop of the Eras Tour. Norton revealed that Swift had ensured that he had a VIP tent all to himself, along with a big bar that he was all too grateful for. However, that was not all that Graham Norton had to say about his past favorite guest.

The Taylor Swift and Eddie Redmayne ship that never sailed

In 2023, Taylor Swift made an appearance on the Graham Norton Show alongside Bono, Eddie Redmayne, and Alex Scott. While all the guests got along like a charm, half way in Swift revealed that she and Redmayne had a special connection that even he did not know of. The songstress revealed that she had auditioned for two roles in one of Redmayne's most popular works, Les Misérables.

Swift revealed that she had auditioned for both Cosette and Éponine. However, her luck was such that although she matched the looks of Cosette, her vocals were a match for Éponine. While it was established early on that she might not get the role, Swift was still excited to meet Redmayne, who she described as one of her favorite actors of all time. The excitement, however, soon turned into dread as she soon realized that she would be meeting him as a street urchin from the 19th century, all tied together by Éponine's brown teeth. Despite the laughs, it is a memory that the singer cherishes to this day.
