When Jesse Tyler Ferguson Gushes About Pal Taylor Swift; Called Her The ‘Most Efficient Go-Getter’

As a long-time admirer of both Jesse Tyler Ferguson‘s acting talent and Taylor Swift’s musical prowess, I found it absolutely delightful to learn about their friendship and shared experiences. It’s not every day you hear stories of a gay bar legend like Stonewall hosting a secret performance by none other than Taylor Swift!


Jesse Tyler Ferguson shared heartfelt praises for his close friend Taylor Swift, recalling their encounter at the iconic Stonewall bar in 2019.

In 2022, while speaking on the People Everyday podcast, the star from Modern Family reminisced about Taylor Swift performing at a bar in celebration of New York City’s 50th anniversary, an event he had invited her to, following the release of her song Shake it Off.

In the podcast episode, Tyler Ferguson admitted that maintaining the secret was extremely challenging. Later on, he humorously mentioned that many assumed it was a talented drag queen or an exceptional Taylor Swift impersonator when he invited someone to join him, but it turned out to be a surprise guest instead.

Shortly following the release of her song “You Need to Calm Down”, which addressed the issue of anti-pride protests, Swift took the stage at a gay bar. Later, Ferguson expressed his admiration for the track, deeming it his favorite and referring to it as a “pride anthem”.

In the video for the song You Need to Calm Down, the actor and his husband, Justin Mikita, along with numerous other well-known members of the LGBTQ+ community, made an appearance. Later in a podcast discussion, Tyler Ferguson shared, “Whenever I post anything about her music or related topics on social media, it’s like they pick me up and carry me triumphantly.

He continued to say, “They love when people praise their Taylor Swift.”

Besides expressing his admiration for Taylor Swift’s music, the actor additionally praised her as an individual. He commended the actress from “Cats” for her diligent work habits, disclosing that she consistently dedicates herself to creating new music and refining her existing catalog.

The sitcom actor exclaimed, “Her career is absolutely captivating to me!” He continued, “I’m really enjoying her musical endeavors… She’s an incredible multi-tasker. Frankly, I can’t help but wonder where she finds the time.

At the time, Ferguson also promoted her new podcast, Gay, Pride and Prejudice.

As a die-hard fanatic immersed in all things Jane Austen, I’ve been captivated by the intriguing exploration of her timeless work and its contemporary adaptations through the lens of societal ideology. In the midst of the pandemic, this podcast came to life, and it wasn’t until 2022 that the actor graced us with each episode, keeping me enthralled from start to finish.
