Joe Alwyn Awkwardly Answered Question About Taylor Swift At Movie Premiere

Joe Alwyn is having a moment. He's got four big movies coming out before the end of the year, including The Favourite and Mary Queen of Scots, that will put him on the map as an actor to watch. The notoriously private 27-year-old Brit also happens to be dating one of the most famous women in the world: Taylor Swift.  Don't expect Joe to answer questions about his longtime girlfriend, though. And if you do plan on dropping in a surprise TSwift question, don't be surprised if Joe literally walks away from the interview

While walking the red carpet for his new movie The Favourite, an interviewer surprised Joe with a question about Taylor Swift's recent political statements. "What did you make of Taylor Swift, all of her tweets and everything have been going out, in terms of her political stance, we haven't really seen that before?" The interviewer sounded pretty nervous bring up Joe's girlfriend, and he quickly responded, "I think it's great. I think it's important." Before she could ask a follow-up, Joe had already moved on. He's clearly perfected the Irish Exit. 

Though Joe may not want to talk about his private life in public, there's no denying the power of Taylor's influence. According to Vote.org, voter registrations skyrocketed after the "Delicate" singer made a Democratic endorsement on her Instagram. It was the first political statement Taylor ever made publicly. "We are up to 65,000 registrations in a single 24-hour period since T. Swift’s post," Kamari Guthrie, director of communications for Vote.org, told Buzzfeed the day after. 

Joe likely won't be answering questions about his relationship anytime soon, but it's nice to see he supports her decision to speak up about what she believes in. As Joe said himself, it's great!
