The Eras Tour Book by Taylor Swift is becoming the ultimate holiday gift, and a select few have already received their copies along with a personal note from the singer.
One of the lucky recipients is Ava Hunt, daughter of Clark Hunt who is the owner, chairman, and CEO of the Kansas City Chiefs. Ava excitedly shared her VIP gift unboxing on her Instagram Stories on December 1. Her sister, Gracie Hunt, also received a copy from Swift and expressed her excitement on Instagram, calling it “The most beautiful woman and most amazing tour.”
The handwritten note that both Ava, 19, and Gracie, 25, shared contains a heartfelt message from Swift reflecting on her experience during the The Eras Tour. The note mentioned the memories of friendship bracelets, traditions, backstage moments, costumes, travels, shows in the rain and at sunset. Taylor expressed gratitude for the fans’ passion, joy, and love that made the tour unforgettable. The singer hopes that the recipients will enjoy reliving her proudest moments through the journey of The Eras Tour.
The whole Hunt family — Clark, his wife, Tavia, plus Ava, Gracie and their brother, Knobel, 22 — have been getting to know Swift, 34, ever since she started dating Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, 35. Ava attended an Eras show at Arrowhead Stadium last year and has previously shared a picture with Swift at a game, writing, “Enchanted to meet you, Taylor Swift.”
In the photo, from Swift’s birthday weekend last December, the singer was clutching a lavishly gift-wrapped present from the family, and it seems she’s now returned the favor meaning that, unlike most Swifties, the sisters didn’t need to line up at Target to get a copy of the coveted Eras souvenir.
The Eras Tour Book documents Swift’s epic 20-month odyssey and was published just days before the tour finally wraps up next week: Swift’s last show is set to be in Vancouver on December 8.
“At the start of this, I never could have imagined that you would cheer so loudly it registered as an earthquake on seismic charts (this happened multiple times) or that you would lift economies of whatever city we went to,” she writes in the book. “More importantly, you lifted the spirits of those around you with your intricate and clever costumes and outfits. You made people feel included by making friendship bracelets and friends. Teaching each other our little tour traditions and looking out for each other.”
She adds: “Your excitement was truly contagious. The Eras Tour had no typical demographic of stereotypical attendee. It was for everyone, because you made everyone feel included. For that, I will never be able to thank you enough. My hope is that you won’t let that behavior end with the end of the Eras tour. It doesn’t have to be the end of an era of joy and acceptance. My hope is that you find ways to create these spaces around you in your daily life, your school, your job. That would be a real legacy to leave.”
