Recently surfaced images of Taylor Swift attending a movie premiere in Sydney with Hollywood star Zac Efron in 2009 have become widely popular. 

The pictures, shared by the news site Pop Sugar Au on Instagram, showcase a 19-year-old Swift elegantly posing alongside a youthful Efron. Swift, adorned in a stunning beige shoulderless designer gown adorned with crystal beads, exudes radiance as she joins Zac at the premiere of his film “17 Again.”

The accompanying caption from Pop Sugar Au commemorates the event, stating, ‘On this day 15 years ago, Taylor Swift and Zac Efron attended the Sydney premiere of 17 Again at Hoyts Entertainment Quarter. Truly, what a time to be alive!’

Having maintained a close friendship for years, Swift and the 36-year-old Efron shared the screen in the 2012 Dr. Seuss animated movie “The Lorax.” In 2009, Swift, then 34, was touring her “Fearless” album across the country, performing on a smaller and more intimate scale compared to her recent extravagant Eras Tour Australian shows.

Last month marked the conclusion of the Australian leg of Swift’s record-breɑking Eras Tour in Sydney, where she reportedly earned $25 million per show, totaling $100 million for four concerts at Accor Stadium. Swift’s impact extended beyond her earnings, as she contributed a significant $145 million to the NSW economy, attracting thousands of local and interstate fans to the city.

In Victoria, Swift injected an impressive $174 million into the state’s economy following her three shows in Melbourne. Fans collectively spent $86 million in the accommodation, hospitality, and tourism sector, boosting CBD spending by 30% compared to the previous month.

As Swift concluded her Sydney concerts, she expressed gratitude to the massive crowd, noting it as the largest audience across the four shows. A record-breɑking attendance of 96,000 fans marked each of her three shows in Melbourne, while an additional 83,000 Swifties attended each of her four shows in Sydney, leaving the audience cheering in delight.
