Everybody need a admirer like Taylor Swift .
Jessica Chastainproved thatTaylor Swiftis 100% a girl’s girl.
On Friday, the 46-year-old actor revealed onThe Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallonthat Taylor gifted her abreak-upplaylist after the two met for the very first time at the 2011Met Gala.
“We were both sitting next to each other, and she was so sweet,” Jessica said, adding that it was her first Met Gala invitation.
“I just went through a break-up, and I was talking to her about that, and we went and danced together — it was such a fun night.”
If you didn’t know, Taylor, aka Time Magazine’s 2023 Person of the Year, is the master of break-up bounce-backs, as seen in herrecent workwith new bestieSophie Turner, who is divorcing singer Joe Jonas.
Even friend and collaboratorAlana Haim(from the bandHaim) recently gave Taylor flowers for her supportive nature. “She has always put her friends before herself in every situation,” Alana said in aPeopleinterview. “She’s the kind of friend that checks up on us for weeks after a tough break-up and is a shoulder to lean on.”
Hayley Williams of Paramore said of Taylor in the same interview, “Not long after we became friends, she knew I felt awkward going to my ex’s wedding, so she tagged along with me, made it fun, and then we ditched the reception to go to the Cheesecake Factory.”
So, back to Jessica: it makes sense that Taylor had her back at the 2011 Met Gala. “And then the next day, I had an email from iTunes that said, like, ‘Taylor Swift’ or whatever, and I just thought that it was a Taylor Swift album,” Jessica continued before realizing that Taylor “had made me a break-up playlist that she sent me! Isn’t that the sweetest thing?”
Of course, Jimmy was stunned because I’m stunned, even though I know Taylor is capable of this type of noble behavior. “What, are you kidding me? That’s unbelievable!” he said.
Taylor’s musical magic helped because Jessica met Gian Luca Passi de Preposulo in Paris the following year and fell deeply in love.
Jessica and Gian have been together since 2012 and married since 2017. They share two children, Guilietta and Augustus.
In 2011, a heartbroken Jessica showed up alone to the Met Gala, and thanks to Taylor’s incredible taste in music, theScenes from a Marriageactoris now showing up to the Met Gala like this:
