Julia Stiles recently experienced a memorable celebrity encounter when she attended a party alongside pop icon Taylor Swift. The 43-year-old actress revealed that she was “taken aback” when the ‘Shake It Off’ singer, 35, approached her with kind words.
Speaking to PEOPLE magazine, Stiles shared, “I was at a party, and Taylor Swift showed up. I wasn’t going to bother her, and she actually came over to me and said some really nice things. I was so taken aback—it was all a blur. But I know I stood in the presence of Taylor Swift, and she was really sweet.”
Beyond celebrity encounters, Stiles opened up about her ability to function on “very little sleep.” As a mother of three and a director, she highlighted the importance of multitasking in managing her busy life. Asked about her recent self-discovery, she said, “How much I can function on very little sleep. As a mother and a director, I can still be perfectly capable. And how good I am at multitasking.”
Stiles recently made her directorial debut with the romantic drama Wish You Were Here. The film follows Charlotte (played by Isabelle Fuhrman), who experiences a whirlwind romance with Adam (Mena Massoud), only to discover he is terminally ill.
In an interview with Collider, Stiles reflected on the film’s themes: “I loved that it’s a meditation on how we should be so lucky to have a lifetime of memories with the person that we fall in love with, as opposed to how a lot of romantic movies are about the love-at-first-sight idea. It also touches on the fragility of human life and how every moment is precious.”
Stiles hopes the film will resonate with audiences, showcasing the beauty of love, resilience, and care in an often-chaotic world.
