Over the course of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour, which has been the highest-grossing tour of all time, attending the concert has become something of a status symbol for celebrities. Think of it as a water cooler for the rich and famous — like Emma Stone, Ethan Hawke, and even Jeff Goldblum. At this point, even royals can't stay away.
On the night of June 21, Prince William took two of his children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte, to see the Princess of Pop on stage. The group was snapped taking selfies together, and the royal family seemed to be having a great time — especially Prince William himself, whose hilarious "Shake It Off" dance moves are going viral.
Prince William's Eras Tour dance moves have the internet in shambles.
In a TikTok shared by concert-goer KK, whose username is @kkinldn, Prince William, his kids, and a few other guests can be seen enjoying the show in a private box — and we mean really enjoying it. During the song "Shake It Off," which is arguably one of Taylor's most popular songs with Swifties and non-Swifties alike, William takes the lyrics to heart.
In the purest display of "dad dancing," Prince William shakes his body around excitedly in a way that only a royal letting loose for one night before going back to the seriousness of politics could.
"Prince William is the Swiftie we all needed. He is positively unhinged in the best of ways right here," one user commented on the TikTok.
"He dances like Chandler Bing," another posited, which is actually quite true now that we think about it.
"'Prince William is a Swiftie' wasn't on my 2024 bingo card, but I'm so not mad at it," one user said.
While we're glad that William and his kids were able to attend the tour and enjoy themselves on their night out — celebrating William's 42nd birthday, no less — we just hope he didn't focus too much on the line about the "fella over there with the hella good hair."
