Emily Blunt recently shared a heartwarming story on The Howard Stern Show about how Taylor Swift uplifted her oldest daughter, Hazel, during a time when she was feeling self-conscious about her short haircut. Swift praised Hazel’s style and made her feel confident, which meant a lot to Blunt. Blunt, who is a big fan of Swift, plays a role in The Fall Guy alongside Ryan Gosling, where there is a touching moment involving one of Swift’s songs. Gosling, who admitted to crying while filming the scene, joked that he didn’t know they were filming during that emotional moment. The Fall Guy is based on a 1980s TV series and features Blunt as a former camera operator-turned-director and Gosling as a stuntman.
In the film, there is a special moment where Gosling’s character cries to Swift’s breakup anthem “All Too Well,” which was originally released on Swift’s Red album in 2012. Swift re-recorded the song as “Taylor’s Version” following a dispute regarding her masters, and released a “10 Minute Version” in November 2021. Last month, Gosling and Blunt performed their own version of “All Too Well” on Saturday Night Live, where they joked about Gosling’s character from Barbie, Ken. Swift praised their performance on her Instagram Story, expressing her excitement about their rendition of the song.
Blunt and her husband, John Krasinski, have two daughters, Hazel and Violet, who have had the opportunity to meet Swift. Blunt is a self-proclaimed Swiftie and has openly expressed her admiration for the singer. In The Fall Guy, there is a scene where Gosling’s character cries to Swift’s song in a car alongside Blunt’s character, creating a touching moment in the film. Despite Gosling joking about his emotional scene in the movie, Blunt found the song to be a perfect fit for that particular moment. Swift’s music has clearly made an impact on both the characters in the film and the actors playing them, creating a special connection between them and the singer.
The story shared by Blunt on The Howard Stern Show highlights the kindness and support that Swift showed towards her daughter, which made a big difference in her confidence. The fact that Blunt is a fan of Swift’s music adds another layer of appreciation for the singer’s gesture towards her daughter. Swift’s ability to make people feel seen and valued through her interactions is evident in this story and in the impact her music has had on both the film and the actors involved. The connection between the characters, the actors, and Swift’s music creates a beautiful moment that showcases the power of music and compassion in bringing people together.
