Joseph Quinn revealed he had a cringey first interaction with Taylor Swift.

The Stranger Things star appeared on the July 1 episode of the Happy Sad Confused podcast, where he recalled the "f**king stupid" thing he said when he met the megastar for the very first time.

He recounted:

"I met Taylor Swift once, and I said, 'You're Taylor Swift.'"
"She was very funny."

Quinn said the 14-time Grammy winner tried to continue the conversation, but he could only utter the same thought.

"She said something nice about, like, the show [Stranger Things], and I said, 'Oh, thanks. You're Taylor Swift.'"
"I meant it as a compliment."

Host Josh Horowitz agreed Quinn's comment was a compliment before Quinn added:

"It's definitely a compliment, and I remember thinking like that was f**king stupid."
"But she was very good-humored about it."

When asked by the host if all is well between the two now, the Quiet Place: Day One actor joked:

"Excellent, yeah, great terms."

He then quipped that he will be on one of her upcoming albums.

"We are just trying to figure it out."

New 'Stranger Things' Documentary Has Fans Convinced That There's Still Another Episode Coming

Following that epic conclusion of Stranger Things, fans barely had time to mourn character deaths, celebrate long-awaited reunions, and process the (spoiler alert) apparent end of Vecna before the discourse spiraled straight back into Hawkins-level chaos.

The series finale, which dropped on New Year’s Eve, delivered spectacle, sentiment, and something that looked a lot like finality. It also left a sizable portion of the fandom unconvinced that this is truly the end of the Upside Down. For a show built on hidden monsters, secret labs, and things not being what they seem, disbelief may be the most on-theme reaction of all.
