In a heartwarming gesture, he subtly integrated altered lyrics into his hit song ‘Beautiful Things’, expressing his appreciation with a nod to Swift in the crowd-pleasing number.
As Boone exited the stage, he delighted the audience with a display of athleticism, executing a pair of backflips that earned cheers and applause. Swift, clearly impressed by Boone's acrobatics, highlighted his energy to the crowd, noting his dedication with enthusiasm.
This memorable moment adds Boone to a select list of performers who have dared to flip on the Eras Tour stage, joining the ranks of past guests like Taylor Lautner. Boone's talents extend beyond this tour; recently, he joined forces with pop icon Lana Del Rey as a special guest at Hangout Music Festival, showcasing their collaborative rendition of ‘Beautiful Things’.
Looking ahead, Boone's journey continues with an upcoming world tour, including stops at prestigious events like Lollapalooza and international dates in New Zealand and Australia. Meanwhile, Swift's Eras Tour continues its record-breaking streak, with Dublin as the next stop, featuring Paramore as the sole opener for a series of thrilling performances across Europe and beyond.
