More pictures have been revealed from Taylor Swift’s Belfast celebrations on Friday night (14th Sep 2021).
Taylor spent the night celebrating the wrap party for her boyfriend, Joe Alwyn’s, project ‘Conversations with Friends’ that has been filming here in Northern Ireland since early May.
The team at Tipsy Bird shared a sweet message for the queen of country and pop music:
“The one and only Taylor Swift graced us with her presence last Friday night💫Taylor was here to support her boyfriend Joe who has just wrapped up filming the TV series ‘Conversations with Friends.’
We can confirm she is just as lovely as you would expect and was kind enough to take a picture with our team📸 Taylor, if you fancy being a Tipsy Bird another night in the future, you know where to find us!🐦”
Staff there even let us in to a secret that her cocktail of choice for the evening was a margarita.
Cool’s Curtis McCosh caught up with 22 year old singer/songwriter Tiernan Heffron who was actually gigging that night for the group, he’s their regular Friday night entertainment.
“I’ve been playing the Belfast music scene for a good few years, when I walked in it was quite quiet, but there were balloons up…the cast of Conversations with Friends had booked the bottom floor. I just started my gig, it was going well, I was getting the crowd warmed up and a woman came up to me, I’ll never forget it, she said ‘Just to let you know, Taylor Swift has just walked in. You kinda laugh, but then I looked up and there she was.”
“I stood up, moved my chair and thought, right I’m not moving for the next few hours. I just went for it, that’s a moment every up and coming songwriter dreams about. Before you know it I had.
“In the middle of my set, Taylor came up to me and gave me a gift (a tip) and she said ‘Take that, you deserve it.’
“To be honest, I welled up a bit, she could see how much it meant to me. As a songwriter, she’s one of my favourites, I’ve followed her for years. It was unbelievable!”
