Billy Joel recently treated his daughters, Della, 9, and Remy, 6, to an unforgettable night at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour in Miami, showcasing that even rock legends are fans of pop megastars. The iconic “Piano Man” singer attended the concert alongside his wife, Alexis Roderick, at the Hard Rock Stadium, where Swift’s second show achieved a new attendance record, breaking the previous one held by a Billy Joel and Elton John concert.
Joel, 75, took to Instagram to share moments from the memorable evening, including snapshots of his family meeting Swift and her mother, Andrea. He expressed pride in being part of this milestone event, commenting on how Swift’s accomplishments serve as inspiration for his daughters, saying that “celebrating someone’s success does not negate your own.” He proudly stated, “She is showing our girls all that is possible,” ending his post with the hashtag #swifties.
This isn’t the first time the Joel family has enjoyed a concert with Swift. Last year, Billy brought Della and Remy to see her perform in Tampa, where they also had the chance to meet the superstar. Joel playfully admitted to gaining “very cool Dad points” for that experience and praised Swift’s performance, noting her incredible talent.
The admiration isn’t one-sided; Joel has long been vocal about his respect for Swift, likening her fame to that of the Beatles, remarking on her extraordinary ability to craft music and consistently produce hits. He lauded her as a “very talented girl” and one of the defining musicians of her generation.
As the family returned from their exciting concert outing, it became clear that Billy Joel is not just a father and a musician but also a devoted fan of Taylor Swift, reinforcing the idea that music transcends genres and generations.
