Something that most Taylor Swift fans probably don't know is that the singer-songwriter had a nice friendship with the late Kris Kristofferson, who recently passed away at age 88. Swift, 34, and Kristofferson first met in 2009 during the Country Music Awards when he presented the "Cruel Summer" singer with one of the four awards she won that year.

The music world, including U2's Bono, was shaken when Kris Kristofferson died on September 28, 2024. Many have paid tribute to the late singer. Bono took to U2's Instagram to post an A cappella cover of his song “Help Me Make It Through the Night.

Their collaboration on the 1976 version of A Star Is Born became one of the most iconic moments in both of their careers.
