Geraldine Viswanathan and Taylor Swift are “linked forever” – and it’s all because of a purse.
The Drive the puppets away star, who shares the screen with Margaret Qualley, met the “Anti-Hero” singer through a co-star, and she told the story to Seth Meyers on Tuesday night’s episode Late Night with Seth Meyers.
Meyers asked Viswanathan about working on the film with Qualley and clarified if that meant she was at Qualley’s August wedding to Antonoff, which Viswanathan was. And that means she met Swift.
Meyers then shows the audience a photo of the actress and Swift, with Viswanathan holding her purse as the two smile.

“Why are you holding your bag like you’re on QVC?” Meyers asks her.
“Funny you ask,” she replies as she struggles to stop laughing. “I was hanging out with Margaret and Jack in the studio and Taylor was leaving and Jack said, ‘Taylor, have you met Geraldine? She’s in a movie with Margaret’.”
Viswanathan then goes on to tell a sweet story about her interaction with Swift in which she complimented the singer’s bag in what sounds like a moment of pure anxiety because she didn’t know what to say next after Swift told her the announcement for Drive the puppets away looked “so good”.
The actress thanked her and continued with the words: “I love my bag!”
“AND [Swift] it was like, ‘Thanks, do you want it?’ And I kind of thought, ‘What?’ And then she started taking her stuff out of her bag and into her pockets and she said, ‘I got this for free, like, you can have it.’ So I took her bag!” Viswanathan Meyers said as the audience laughed.
“I have proof!” she finished, while Meyers refreshed everyone’s memory with a photo of Swift and Viswanathan together.

Antonoff — who often collaborates with Swift — married Qualley last August in New Jersey with Channing Tatum, Zoë Kravitz, Cara Delevingne and Lana Del Rey alongside the “Lavender Haze” singer.
Qualley wore Chanel for her wedding, including custom Chanel Mary Jane shoes, while Antonoff wore a classic black suit and tie for the occasion.
Swift wore a pale blue Erdem dress that fans thought looked flattering in 1989 era – which was appropriate, given her 1989 (Taylor Version) he was released shortly after the wedding.
