Taylor Swift had some famous faces at her first Eras Tour show in Sydney. Along with her boyfriend Travis Kelce showing his support for the pop superstar, 34, fellow singers Katy Perry and Rita Ora were also spotted in the crowd at Friday night’s show.
Perry, 39, later shared a series of snaps and clips from the concert on Instagram, including a smiling selfie with Swift backstage. “got to see an old friend shine tonight ♥️✨,” the American Idol judge captioned the carousel.
The “Roar” singer’s post also featured videos of Swift performing her tracks “You Belong with Me” and “Bad Blood,” along with a photo with Ora, 33, in the VIP tent. During Swift’s performance of the latter song, Perry flipped her camera around to show herself pulling a shocked face and mouthing the lyrics.
Ora also posted pictures from the show on Instagram and posed for a photo backstage with Swift, who was wearing a bedazzled bodysuit, with her husband Taika Waititi. During the concert, Ora also met Kelce, 34, and smiled for a photo with the Kansas City Chiefs star in the VIP tent.
“It’s fair to say Sydney 🇦🇺 always delivers – Or shall we say our TayTay @taylorswift always delivers! thank you for having us! Seeing my KP @katyperry made my heart 🥹 to many queens to count!” Ora captioned the post.
In a video posted to X (formerly Twitter), Ora and Perry could be seen chatting in the VIP tent as they stood next to filmmaker Waititi, 48, while Perry also appeared to accept what looked like a friendship bracelet from a fan. Swapping handmade beaded bracelets became Swifties’ new favorite pastime during the Eras Tour last summer. The bracelets are inspired by the lyrics from Swift’s Midnights song, “You’re on Your Own, Kid,” specifically the line, “Make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it.”
Both Perry and Ora, who also showed off her impressive collection of friendship bracelets, dressed in all-black for the concert, with Ora wearing a black cap and strapless dress while Perry sported a cropped black waistcoat with thin white stripes and matching flared pants. In November 2022, Ora and Waititi presented Swift with an MTV EMA award — one of four awards she won during the evening — while co-hosting the annual ceremony in Düsseldorf, Germany.
