It has been a week since Thunderbolts* hit the theatres and became a summer blockbuster, but its big star cast is still working hard at promoting the movie. The cast recently played the game of Cast Wars for Buzzfeed Celeb, where they were asked personal questions to understand who knows the most about each other. In the quiz, Geraldine Viswanathan revealed that Taylor Swift gifted her a small black bag after the actress complimented the singer for it. “She said it looked better on me, so she gave it to me”, Viswanathan said, gushing over Swift’s precious gift. The video was also shared by Taylor Swift Updates on X.

Geraldine Viswanathan previously gave a detailed account of this incident on Seth Meyers' show some months ago. There, she informed that on meeting Taylor Swift for the first time, when she complimented the singer of her bag, Swift gave the immediate response of "Thanks, do you want it?" Leaving Geraldine in disbelief, Swift then took out her stuff from her bag into her pockets and said, "I got this for free, like, you can take it.' So, I took her bag!" During this Buzzfeed interview, the whole cast was presented with the question of guessing which famous celebrity was that, which they failed to do. But listening to Swift’s name left all of them in awe.
