So, picture this: Keith Urban, the country music maestro, has come clean about his unabashed love for Taylor Swift and Ariana Grande. In a recent chat with PEOPLE, right after he spilled the beans about his Las Vegas gig, Keith let loose his inner fanboy.
He gushed about Taylor Swift like a teenage girl at a One Direction concert, claiming her songwriting was so mind-blowingly awesome that words couldn’t even do it justice. Seriously, he was at a loss for adjectives! If that doesn’t scream “superfan,” I don’t know what does.
Then, he pivots to Ariana Grande, and the enthusiasm level skyrockets. He’s practically addicted to her latest tune, “We Can’t Be Friends.” It’s like auditory crack, he says! The poor guy admits he’s stuck in a perpetual replay loop, like a CD player with a glitch.
But wait, it gets better. Keith even had a front-row seat to watch Ariana belt it out at the Met Gala, dragging his wife Nicole Kidman along for the ride. Can you imagine being Nicole Kidman, sitting there while your husband swoons over another woman’s voice? Awkward!
And don’t even get him started on Ariana’s celestial magic. Yep, he’s totally smitten. It’s like the song is sprinkled with fairy dust or something. I mean, who wouldn’t be obsessed with a tune that sounds like it’s been kissed by angels?
In Keith’s world, Ariana and Taylor are like the Holy Grail of singers. They’re so unique, so distinctive, that you could pick them out of a lineup blindfolded. It’s like they’ve got their own secret sauce that sets them apart from the rest. And let’s face it, in a world full of copycats, that’s worth celebrating.
Keith Urban, the self-proclaimed Swiftie and Grande Groupie, laying his musical heart bare for all to see. Who knew a tough Aussie cowboy could have such a soft spot for pop princesses? But hey, who can blame him? When the music’s this good, resistance is futile.
