We can’t help but fangirl over the fact that Taylor Swift and Sophie Turner can’t
help but fangirl over each other… make sense?
We love their friendship so much, we decided to round up all the best moments of their
friendship, so let’s get into it!
There was no question Taylor Swift and Sophie Turner were destined to become friends from
the get-go, especially after the release of Taylor’s sixth studio album, reputation.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, she admitted that while making the album,
many of her songs were “influenced” by Game of Thrones, in which Sophie stars as
the queen of the North AKA Sansa Stark.
She explained each of the Thrones-inspired songs, saying QUOTE, “‘Look What You Made
Me Do’ is literally Arya Stark’s kill list.
‘King of My Heart’ was influenced by Khal Drogo and Daenerys.
‘I Did Something Bad’ I wrote after Arya and Sansa conspire to kill Littlefinger.
That and ‘Look What You Made Me Do’ are very Cersei vibes.”
The continued feeling of admiration was mutual even years later when Sophie gushed over Taylor,
and even admitted to ‘fangirling’ over her during a 2019 red carpet interview.
“I fangirl over her…
I don’t think Taylor Swift fangirls over me, I fangirl over her!”
Alright, so we can’t exactly move on without addressing the JoBro-shaped elephant in the
room AKA the fact that Sophie can’t help but fangirl over the girl who was broken up
with over a 25-second phone call by her now-husband, Joe Jonas.
“I’m not even gonna be able to remember the boy who broke up with me over the phone
in 25 seconds when I was 18.”
#NeverForget this iconic interview, but the years have passed, amends have been made and
we’ve all matured… that is, until another song that was allegedly written about Joe
was recently unleashed from Taylor’s ‘vault’, and according to Sophie, it’s not NOT a
bop…
“Hello, Mr. Perfectly Fine.
How’s your heart after breaking mine?”
“Mr. Perfectly Fine” is an undeniable smash hit, whether or not your own husband
is the subject.
Ya know?
As soon as the song was released last month, Sophie took to Instagram to share her thoughts
on the breakup anthem, writing, “It’s not NOT a bop,” to which Taylor appropriately
responded with a Game of Thrones reference, saying, “Forever bending the knee to the
queen of the north.”
The love is clearly mutual, and as this Twitter user put it ever so perfectly, “Sophie Turner
is a Swiftie first and Joe Jonas’ wife second.”
I mean, it’s not NOT the truth…
But speaking of ‘bops’, long before “Mr. Perfectly Fine” hit streaming platforms,
came Taylor’s coming-of-age anthem, “22”, in which we ALL couldn’t wait to blast through
the speakers after concluding our 21st lap around the sun.
Sophie was literally all of us while celebrating her 22nd birthday back in 2018 and belting
out the iconic line from one of Tay’s catchiest tunes to date:
“I don’t know about you, but I’m feelin’ 22…”
But perhaps one of the biggest fangirl rights of passage is legitimately TWINNING with your
idol, which is what Sophie unintentionally (or quite possibly intentionally) did when
choosing her outfit for Joe’s 30th James Bond-themed birthday party back in 2019.
She said QUOTE, “It was amazing and I wanted to be a Bond girl for the night.”
Sophie might’ve forgotten the designer of the dress she wore, buuuut she did remember
that Taylor wore it during the 2016 Oscar Vanity Fair after party…
“I don’t remember who it was by, which is awful, but I know that Taylor Swift wore
it before to an event, and she looked much better in it than I did.”
As if it wasn’t already evident, Taylor and Sophie are both class act queens who constantly
support each other and cheer each other on, and we truly love to see it.
That said, it’s only appropriate to leave you all with this video compilation of both
Tay and Sophie living their best award show lives:
