  • Charlize Theron recently took to Instagram to showcase her dance moves at Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour,

  • The show occurred on Theron's birthday, which she declared "the best birthday ever."

  • At that same show, Swift announced the release date of 1989 (Taylor's Version).


It's safe to say that Taylor Swift is the moment. The massive success of The Eras Tour has launched Swift into the zeitgeist even more than the music megastar ever has been before. She's being referenced everywhere, from Netflix dramas to the wrestling ring. Her fans are decoding hidden messages about album release dates faster than Alan Turing's Enigma machine, and anyone who's anyone has been attending the tour and rocking out to the music of the three-time Album of the Year winner on social media.

That includes Academy Award-winner Charlize Theron, who took to Instagram to show her dancing to a Taylor tune at one of the singer's most recent shows.

The Mad Max: Fury Road star attended the recent show at the SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles on Monday, August 7, which was Theron's birthday. In her Instagram video, she can be seen dancing with her daughters, Jackson and August, to "Shake It Off," the lead single off of Swift's Grammy-winning album 1989.

"Thank you for the best birthday ever @taylorswift!!!" Theron wrote in the caption of her post. "We had such a great f------- time."

It's fitting that Theron showcased a 1989 song in her post since she got an additional "gift" from Taylor for her birthday—a present shared with all the other fans in attendance. Swift used the show to reveal the release date for the hotly anticipated 1989 (Taylor's Version), her re-recording of the beloved album.

Of course, Theron wasn't the only star attending The Eras Tour. Everyone from Tiffany Haddish and Cameron Diaz to Sarah Michelle Gellar and Seth Green was able to snag seats for the hottest show in town. As for whether they bought those seats or got them as gifts is unclear, but let's hope the Shake It Off singer's ticket sale situation shook out better than it did for Bruno Mars in South Korea.
