It’s no secret that West Side Story and Hunger Games actor Rachel Zegler is a proud Swiftie, but her latest confession has Taylor Swift fans cheering for her even more. The 24-year-old, who is currently starring as Eva Perón in Evita at the London Palladium, was asked by a fan to name her all-time favorite Taylor Swift song.
After a thoughtful pause, Zegler gave her answer: Cowboy Like Me, a slow-burning track from Swift’s 2020 album Evermore.
As soon as she responded, fans at the stage door gasped and applauded in delight, clearly moved by the unexpected choice. Zegler continued to sign autographs, as per a The News report.

A video of the moment was captured and shared on social media, where it quickly went viral. Swifties on X (formerly Twitter) were quick to hail Zegler’s choice, especially given that Evermore is often described as one of Swift’s most underrated albums.
A user posting the video on X with the text, “a fan asking rachel her fav Taylor Swift song.” It was later reposted by another Taylor Swift fan account.
