Watch Gracie Abrams Cover Taylor Swift's ‘All Too Well' During L.A. Concert
'It just is not lost on me that the reason that a lot of us know each other is because I got to meet many of you through doing the Eras Tour with Taylor,' Abrams told the crowd. 'I just feel like I'm forever missing what that experience was. I know we all feel that way … I wanted to sing a song for you that I'll forever wish I wrote, if you've got 10 minutes.'

Sorry, Trump - Taylor Swift's Career Is Still Very Hot
Before performing, she shared that she and Swift had talked 'earlier today,' so it seemed fitting for her to play a song by her friend. Abrams was one of the many openers of Swift's Eras Tour in 2023 and 2024, and even joined Swift onstage during her part of the show several times.
During one night in London, Swift and Abrams sang 'Us' together, in Toronto, they did a mash-up of 'Us' and 'Out of the Woods,' and during one of the final nights in Vancouver, the pair performed 'I Love You, I'm Sorry' and 'Last Kiss.'
When she was nominated for Best New Artist at the Grammys last year, Abrams spoke to Rolling Stone about the most significant milestone moments of the year, and spoke of joining Swift on the road, saying she gained experience 'from watching Taylor's show as many times as I have and just kind of being in close proximity to her, learning from her as a musician and as a friend and as a business person.'
Swift and Abrams dueted on 'Us' on Abrams' The Secret of Us album. 'I am currently smiling and sweating thinking about it, and I'll never get over the shock of seeing this one on the tracklist. You know how I feel,' Abrams wrote on X when she dropped the song.
Abrams is nearing the end of her The Secret of Us Deluxe tour with shows at Colorado's Red Rocks Amphitheatre and Mexico City's Pepsi Center WTC still left before the end of August.

How to watch Taylor Swift's first appearance on the Kelces' 'New Heights' podcast
NEW YORK -- NEW YORK (AP) — Taylor Swift's latest era is almost upon us. The superstar isn't just releasing new music — she's appearing Wednesday on 'New Heights' for the first time. Part of the rollout for Tuesday's announcement of 'The Life of a Showgirl' involved the popular, typically football-focused podcast hosted by Travis Kelce — Swift's boyfriend and Kansas City Chiefs tight end — and his brother, Jason Kelce, the former Philadelphia Eagles center. The show teased 'a special episode with a VERY special guest' on social media Monday, sharing an orange background and a mysterious silhouette that many believed to be Swift. It turned out to be true, the show's social media accounts confirmed later, at the same time Swift announced her 12th studio album. Here's everything you need to know about Swift's episode. Swift's episode of the 'New Heights' podcast will premiere at 7 p.m. Eastern. It will be available to stream in full on YouTube. Fans who would prefer to listen to the show, instead, can do so via most podcast-streaming platforms: Apple Podcasts, Amazon Music, Audible, Spotify and Wondery, which produces the show, among them. Episodes can run up to two hours. It is unclear how long Swift's episode will be or how long she will be present. Not a whole lot. After the initial tease, the podcast shared a short video clip to its social media platforms early Tuesday. In it, Swift told the Kelce brothers she wanted to show them something, revealing a mint-green briefcase that featured her initials in orange. Jason Kelce asked what's in it, prompting her to pull out a vinyl record with a blurred cover. 'This is my brand new album, 'The Life of a Showgirl,'' she shared. Soon afterward, the 'New Heights' podcast shared another clip featuring Swift to tease Wednesday's episode. In it, Swift complimented the color of Travis Kelce's sweatshirt, who responded, 'It's the color of your eyes, sweetie. It's why we match so well.' Swift retorted, 'We're about to do a (expletive) podcast.'

Chance the Rapper talks about life after divorce ahead of ‘Star Line' release
Chance the Rapper is opening up about co-parenting with his ex-wife as he prepares to release a new album and go on a national tour. The rapper from Chicago stopped by the 'CBS Morning' studio on Monday to discuss the release of his second studio album, 'Star Line.' Chance, whose real name is Chancelor Bennett, described the new EP as his 'most expansive work.' 'It covers a lot of different areas in my life,' he said. Chance etched his way into the music world after recording a mixtape during a high school suspension. He self-released '10 Days' in 2012 and began his career as an independent artist, a path that he continues to follow. He followed up his debut LP with 'Acid Rap' a year later, and 'Coloring Book' in 2016. In 2023, Chance celebrated the 10th anniversary of his second mixtape by performing the entire tape at the Kia Forum. 'I wrote [Acid Rap] when I was opening up for artists playing 300-cap rooms. I'm rapping about doing open mics but closing my eyes and seeing arenas. Going back and playing arenas for that project just makes me proud,' Chance said in a 2023 interview. Now, the rapper behind tracks like 'Cocoa Butter Kisses' and 'No Problem' said his new album reflects the change his personal life has gone through in the last six years, including his divorce from Kirsten Corley, with whom he shares two children. 'It's always just a good thing to, as an artist … release and to like, you know, just share with the world,' he added. The couple married back in 2019 and announced their separation last year on their Instagram. Corley filed for divorce in December 2024. They continue to raise their two young daughters together. 'You know, family is like one of the biggest things for me, for [Corley], for my kids, for my mom and dad, so I think the most important thing for anybody that's ever navigating [parenting after a divorce] is making sure that you keep an environment for the kids where they understand that [family is] the priority,' Bennett said. His last album, 'The Big Day,' was released in 2019. Chance the Rapper is releasing his follow-up on Friday and will go on tour starting in September, with a stop in L.A. on Oct. 20.
