Lola Tung attended Taylor Swift’s record-breaking and economy-uplifting Eras Tour in 2023, where a gesture from the pop titan turned her already magical concert experience into an unforgettable night. Tung recently appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon with her co-stars Gavin Casalegno and Christopher Briney. She shared a moment from a concert where they were standing right by the stage when Swift looked at them, waved, and said, "I love you guys." "I nearly passed out," the 22-year-old added about her reaction.
Lola Tung further divulged that she attended the concert with Jenny Han, the author of the books The Summer I Turned Pretty is based on. She revealed that not only did Swift acknowledge their presence at the Eras Tour, but she also made a heart with her hands to express her mutual fondness. While discussing her obsession with Swift, the actress also revealed how the singer’s song 'False God' was part of the show and how the singer treated the crowd to the tune the day they attended her concert. Besides the title, multiple other Taylor Swift songs have formed the soundtrack of the fan-favorite Prime Video offering over the years, with Tung revealing which one of them is her favorite.
One Taylor Swift track holds a special place in Lola Tung’s heart, and no points for guessing which Fisher brother it is linked to.

When Jimmy Fallon asked Lola Tung if she had a favorite Taylor Swift song that features on The Summer I Turned Pretty, the actress, without a second’s delay, blurted out 'The Way I Loved You.' The song, for those unversed, accompanies Season 1’s debutante ball scene, sending Belly and Conrad, Tung and Christopher Briney’s characters, into a world of their own as they share a romantic dance. 'Delicate' is another song by Swift that features on The Summer I Turned Pretty and makes the cut for Tung.

The latter song, for the record, defines Belly’s relationship with Jeremiah and can be heard on the season 3 trailer. It seems like Lola Tung was aiming to strike a balance between both the Fisher brothers she romances on the show in an attempt to keep her favorite of the two hidden ahead of the production's impending finale premiere. As The Summer I Turned Pretty heads toward its conclusion, Tung’s starry-eyed recollection of the sweet Taylor Swift gesture reminds fans that, sometimes, the most unforgettable plot twists happen offscreen.
