Laura Dern gushed about the ‘deep friendship’ she formed with Taylor Swift nearly two years after starring in one of her music videos.
‘It’s one of my deep friendships and I love and admire her so much,’ the 56-year-old Oscar winner told People last Thursday.
‘To find a friend amidst the creative, and she’s a superpower… She’s incredible. So that’s been really fun.’
Laura famously portrayed the 34-year-old pop star’s wicked ‘Stepmommy’ in her Cinderella-inspired 2022 music video for Bejeweled, which she also directed.
Dern isn’t quite sure whether her own fanbase has expanded due to their connection, but shrugged: ‘I don’t know, but I’ll take it!’

Back in March, the Tiny Beautiful Things producer treated her two adult children – son Ellery, 22; and daughter Jaya, 19 – to VIP meet-and-greet tickets to Taylor’s $1B-grossing, 151-date Eras Tour.
Laura – who boasts 1.2M Instagram followers – gushed: ‘Celebrating our amazing buddy’s first show of tour. Extraordinary. Found family.’
Dern mothered Ellery and Jaya during her six-year marriage to three-time Grammy winner Ben Harper, but the couple split in 2012 and their divorce was finalized in 2013.
Swift is next scheduled to compete for six trophies – including record of the year – at the 66th Annual Grammy Awards, which air February 4 on CBS.
The Honey, Baby, Mine co-author will next portray Linda opposite her real-life father Bruce Dern in Abe Sylvia’s 10-episode comedy Palm Royale, which premieres March 20 on Apple TV+.
The 1969 Palm Beach, FL-set series – based on Juliet McDaniel’s novel Mr. & Mrs. American Pie – also stars Carol Burnett, Kristen Wiig, Allison Janney, Ricky Martin, Leslie Bibb, and Josh Lucas.
Last February, Laura locked lips with Liam Hemsworth on the LA set of Susannah Grant’s Morocco-set romance Lonely Planet, which will premiere later this year on Netflix.
At 34, the Australian heartthrob is 22 years younger than Dern.
And on November 18, Nicole Kidman officially confirmed that Max had renewed its hit drama Big Little Lies for a third season – six years after season two aired.
‘We will be bringing you a third one, just FYI,’ the the 56-year-old Oscar winner said at the CME Group Tour Championship Friday in Naples, FL.
The Emmy winner is thrilled to make her triumphant return as intense businesswoman and mother-of-one Renata Klein in David E. Kelley’s critically-acclaimed series based on Liane Moriarty’s 2014 novel.
‘I just know if it’s meant to be, I will be there,’ Laura told E! News last Thursday, ‘because those are my dearest friends.’
