Since the Artist of the Decade went back on tour, fans have been excitedly scouring the internet for whatever video clips they can find of the massive shows. Every weekend, you can see new clips of Taylor Swift interacting with fans and making every fan’s dream come true. But there’s one particular fan who might be winning the most out of everyone else, namely Filipino-American Swiftie Mikael Arellano!
Taylor Swift noticed his Tiktok video
When Taylor first dropped her latest album Midnights, 21-year-old Tiktok creator Mikael Arellano made a simple choreography to the song “Bejeweled.” Just strut, turn, and ~shimmer~ your fingers at the camera. Due to being both fun and easy to follow, his choreography quickly went viral, though even before “Bejeweled”, Mikael had already gained quite the following among Swifties for the same reasons.
The original Tiktok video went viral so much that even Taylor herself liked it using her official account.
Taylor Swift used his choreo on her tour
Taylor not only liked the choreo — she loved it so much that she even used it as the ~official~ choreography in The Eras Tour. According to Mikael, Taylor Nation contacted him to ask for permission to use his “Bejeweled” choreography in Taylor’s performance on tour. Of course, he said yes, and he was offered tickets in exchange.

He went past the barricade

He got Taylor’s hat
Mikael received the iconic “22” hat — a hat signed on the inside by Taylor herself! “I don’t normally wear hats, but it’s the only one I’ll wear,” he said.

And he held her hand (!!!)
