Gracie Abrams reflects on her Eras Tour experience and recalls one helpful back pain tip she learned from Taylor Swift.
The “Us” singer, 25, detailed in a new interview with Who What Wear on Sept. 4 that Swift — who brought her along for the first time as an opener on her 2023 tour — also put her on an acupressure mat sold on Amazon.
“There’s this amazing acupressure mat that I think costs about $15 on Amazon,” Abrams said in an interview with the social media publication, which was also shared by Swift fan accounts on X. “It’s so painful, but it helps with back pain , and if you go on tour, my back must hurt, Taylor gave me that advice.”
Abrams previously revealed to Vogue in May 2023 that Swift gave her back pain advice, and while she didn’t reveal the name of the product then or now, her latest explanation should make it a little easier for Swifties to decipher which two mats the co-stars were using.

Gracie Abrams recalls ‘out of body’ experience of ‘Us’ debut with Taylor Swift at Wembley Stadium
Back pain isn’t the only thing Swift, 34, gave Abrams advice about.
In her Who What Wear cover story, the “Risk” singer-songwriter opened up about her duet with Swift at London’s Wembley Stadium in June, when they performed “Us” together acoustically.
“We wrote it as we played at Wembley,” Abrams told the publication. “To see someone have the ability, in a stadium, to make you feel like you and her are the only people there, that was really important for me to see.”
Abrams also revealed how the Eras Tour inspired her latest LP, The secret of uswhich arrived in June. She will perform again at her friend’s concerts in Canada, which begin on November 14 in Toronto.

“I’m so fucking happy we can do this [The Secret of Us] on Eras only because so much of the album was undeniably inspired by the kind of energy that radiates from both Taylor herself and her fans, [who] they’re just so committed and passionate,” Abrams said.
In an interview with PEOPLE at the top of the year, the rising musician called Swift “an incredible performer and the most generous friend.”
“I haven’t forgotten that her faith in me really … did a lot. So I’m deeply grateful to her, forever,” she said.
