Boy surprised with tickets to see Taylor Swift after viral Halloween costume inspired by Eras Tour

An 11-year-old boy in Kentucky will see Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour in person thanks to his viral Halloween costume.

Louisville’s Henry Hinson went viral on TikTok this month after choosing to dress up as Kameron Saunders, one of Swift’s backup dancers, for Halloween.

In a video shared by his mother on October 18, Henry can be seen wearing the same outfit that Saunders wears in the opening song of The Eras Tour, where Swift first appears to the crowd.

The video of Henry in costume quickly racked up nearly four million views and caught the attention of Saunders himself, who responded in the comments: “This is BEYOND!!!! 🥹 you beautiful, gentle light! THANK YOU! This is remarkable and elaborate and generous and PERFECT I’M HONORED!!!!”

Just two days after posting the costume video, Henry’s mom, Erin Hinson, shared an update that made Henry’s “wildest dreams” come true.
