A Filipino TikToker is living every Swiftie’s dream after receiving complimentary VIP tickets to Taylor Swift’s Eras concert. He even held her hand and received the hat the singer wore for her 22 performance.

Mikael Arellano — who went viral in October for the Bejeweled TikTok trend — revealed that he was contacted by Taylor Nation, who asked permission to use parts of his now-viral choreography in the show in exchange for free tickets to a show of his choice.

Mikael, who is based in the United States, went to the Philadelphia show and had his moment with Taylor herself.

The pop star noticed Mikael in the crowd while performing 22, held his hand and gave him her hat.
