After Rita Ora and Katy Perry were spotted at the Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour concert in Sydney, Australia, fans are left asking if they are friends with Swift. So, here’s all you need to know about her equation with Ora and Perry.
Is Taylor Swift friends with Rita Ora?
Yes, Taylor Swift is friends with Rita Ora.
Ora attended The Eras Tour Sydney concert with her husband Taika Waititi, the director of Thor: Ragnarok. They were also seen posing with the pop star behind the stage, an image posted by the official X handle of The Eras Tour.
Rita Ora has always been supportive of Swift. In 2023, she revealed how she was inspired by Swift and her business sense with regard to her music. Before that, Waititi and Ora also presented an MTV EMA award to the Cruel Summer singer in 2022.
Furthermore, Ora’s interviews showing love towards Swift date all the way back to 2015. Billboard quoted her as saying:
“I think she’s one of the most incredible songwriters of our generation. I’m not even just saying it. I absolutely adore her music and love what she stands for.”
Whether Ora is one of Swift’s closest best friends isn’t officially known, but it’s clear that the British singer, songwriter, and actress has maintained her friendship, love, and support for Swift to this date.
Is Taylor Swift friends with Katy Perry?
Katy Perry and Taylor Swift are friends in the present day, but they were a part of an infamous feud years back.
Attending Swift’s Aussie concert, the 39-year-old Perry took to Instagram to celebrate her performance and their friendship. The two did share a beef in the early 2010s, as Swift purportedly composed “Bad Blood” specifically pointing at Perry. Reportedly, the latter responded with “Swish Swish.”
But the two singers publicly made amends in 2020. Perry also confirmed this saying that she and Swift are “super friendly” at present, and their feud was exaggerated by the media. She said on the Howard Stern Show:
“Gossip in life can take the elevator but the truth takes the stairs. It just takes time.”
She continued:
“What I’m so grateful for is we did get to make up publicly and got to be an example of redemption for young girls…I always wanted the best for her and now we can talk about the best we want for each other.”
Now, it’ll be interesting to see what this friendship sprouts in the future.
