Teresa Giudice reveals the awkward question she asked Taylor Swift at Coachella
This was a crossover no one saw coming in 2024.
“Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Teresa Giudice revealed how the iconic picture of her and Taylor Swift at Coachella went down.
“I didn’t want to ask her for a photo because I didn’t want to bother her,” the 51-year-old Bravo star told “E! News.”
Giudice explained that her husband, Louie Ruelas, encouraged her to speak with the 34-year-old pop star at the festival on April 13.
“Jennifer Aydin [who’s] on my show, she loves her,” Giudice said about her co-star. “I’m like, ‘All right. I’m doing this for Jennifer Aydin.'”
When she finally approached Swift, Giudice awkwardly asked: “Do you know who I am?” When the “Cruel Summer” singer said yes, the rest was history.
“She was the sweetest person ever,” she said about Swift. “I’m totally a Swiftie now. I love her. She was so sweet and I’m totally a big fan.”
In the picture, the reality TV star sported a neon pink bathing suit, a white fishnet coverup and a pink cowboy hat, while Swift wore a green “New Heights” cap and a black leather jacket.
Fans flocked to the comments, with some asking: “Is Taylor Swift a Housewives fan?!”
“Tre is living her best life and we love to see it!!! Tswift and Tre, two icons!” another person wrote under the post.
Giudice and Swift were then taken to a VIP section to watch Ice Spice perform at the festival in Indio, California.
“I’m all about that. Listen, we should all be amazing to each other, lift each other up,” the “RHONJ” star said, talking about Swift. “She touched my heart. There are some people that I have met — I’m not going to say who — that act like who they are, and I love that [Swift] was so down to earth.”
Giudice attended the California music festival with her 18-year-old daughter, Milania, whose father is Joe Giudice. (The exes also have daughters Gabriella, 20, and Gia, 23.)
Giudice attended an event for her husband’s latest business venture, Vinivia, during the weekend too.
Swift, who just came out with an album in April, spent the Coachella weekend with her boyfriend, football star Travis Kelce.
Their PDA-filled appearance came one week before the release of Swift’s 11th studio album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” which dropped on April 19.
