Backup Singer’s Cancer Journey During Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour


James Van Der Beek Says Cancer Was “Best Thing That Ever Happened” to Him in Health Update

Taylor Swift‘s touring family is never on their own, kid.

And Jeslyn Gorman knows that all too well. Indeed, the backup singer reflected on her experience being diagnosed with cancer and navigating the health battle amid the Eras Tour.

“I was diagnosed with breast cancer,” she explained in episode three of Eras Tour: The End of an Era docuseries released Dec. 19. “When I let Taylor know, she came storming in with hugs and crying and just saying, ‘I’m so sorry.'”

Jeslyn recalled how supportive the “Bejeweled” singer and her mom Andrea Swift were following the diagnosis, noting that the matriarch told her, “You just take care of you, and we’ll be here when you’re ready.”

For a while, Jeslyn—who joined Taylor’s team during her 2018 Reputation tour—tried to continue performing as usual amid her treatment.

“Obviously, it was devastating, but every weekend, we had a show,” she said. “I still flew to the next city, did a show with everyone. In the middle of the week when we weren’t doing shows, I would fly back to L.A. and just had biopsies, just poked and prodded to learn really what I had to do, treatment-wise and then hopped back on stage and pretended like nothing was happening.”
