After Dave Grohl’s recent comments about Taylor Swift’s live performances sparked controversy, Grohl’s daughter has also been brought into the controversy. Let’s take a look at who Violet Grohl is and what exactly links her to this dramatic episode.
Here’s all the information we have about Dave Grohl’s daughter and her connection to the recent drama with Taylor Swift.
Who is Dave Grohl’s daughter Violet?
Violet Grohl is an American singer and the daughter of Foo Fighters’ leading man Dave Grohl.
The 18-year-old is an aspiring singer herself, known for joining her dad onstage with the Foo Fighters and also being featured on their 2023 single “Show Me How.” She is the eldest of Grohl’s three daughters with his wife Jordyn Blum.
In 2007, Dave Grohl spoke in an interview with People about how fatherhood had changed him since the birth of his daughter Violet. “Violet loves the Amy Winehouse record. It’s all about the ‘Rehab’ song,” he mentioned. “If she hears, ‘Try to make me go to rehab,’ Violet will go, ‘No no no.’ I know, it’s a little weird, but it’s really cute.” Violet also occasionally joins her dad onstage for the performance of Foo Fighters tracks like “My Hero,” “Everlong” and “Times Like These.”
Violet Grohl and Taylor Swift drama explained
Dave Grohl’s daughter Violet Grohl recently became associated with the drama between her father and Taylor Swift after her father’s comments about Swift’s Eras tour.
After Dave Grohl appeared to comment on Taylor Swift’s live performances during a Foo Fighters concert in London, fans seem to have connected the drama to his daughter Violet Grohl. In January this year, Violet reportedly took to X (formerly Twitter) to criticize Taylor Swift’s private jet use. In a now-deleted post, she wrote, “why can’t taylor swift just drive like everyone else.” She faced online harassment and also received a lot of backlash from some fans. This has caused some to speculate that this is the reason for Dave Grohl’s comments about Swift’s live performances, though there is no evidence of this as of writing.
