Natural Beaut & Talent Keri Russell Reacts to Taylor Swift Calling Her the ‘Coolest Celebrity Ever’.
I mean—we’ve known it all along. Since the mid-1990s, to be precise. Ever since Miss Russell made her debut acting, singing, and dancing on the beloved Disney Channel OG variety sketch musical programming: The Mickey Mouse Club.
Keri Russell was astonished and flattered to learn that Taylor Swift once called her the “coolest celebrity ever” in a…wait for it…a 2008 MySpace posting. Oh, those were the days! The inaugural timeline of what was to come. The development stage before the water broke the dam—aka the birth of mainstream commercial online interaction known as social media.
During her recent appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Russell shared her first greetings with Tay Tay and revealed that she had seen a screenshot of Swift’s post, which specifically named her as the coolest person. The actress was visibly touched, calling Swift a “legend” and a “queen,” and reminisced about their early encounter.
Russell also mentioned how her daughter, Willa, is such a fan of Swift that she once skipped a volleyball game in hopes of meeting her. The moment was lighthearted, nostalgic, and full of mutual admiration between two icons from different generations.
