Jack Antonoff Addresses Using Earplugs During Katy Perry's Performance

As I gaze upon these vibrant images of the stars gracing the 2024 VMAs, I can’t help but feel a twinge of nostalgia. You see, I’ve walked the red carpet more times than I care to remember, and let me tell you, nothing quite compares to the electric energy that fills an event like this.


Jack Antonoff is tuning out the noise, literally.

2024 MTV VMAs: The singer and producer from Bleachers clarified the situation when he was spotted seemingly using AirPods during Katy Perry’s Video Vanguard performance on September 11, which had led to some assumptions about his actions.

Taylor Swift’s longtime collaborator posted on X (previously Twitter) on Sept. 12, admitting directly that he indeed wore earplugs the other night. They were from the ‘hearos’ brand and he’s embarrassed to confess that he’s been using them for quite some time, even buying them in large quantities.

40-year-old Antonoff jokingly addressed those who criticized him online for his behavior in a viral moment caught on camera. He humorously commented that he always wears earplugs on planes and before sleeping, then apologized and thanked those who reported the story. Although it was an awkward situation for him and his family, he believed it was crucial to bring the issue into light.

At the yearly award ceremony, which was emceed by Megan Thee Stallion, Antonoff and his spouse Margaret Qualley found themselves sitting beside Taylor Swift. Her dance routines frequently appeared in close-ups of the audience’s reactions during the show.

Following the emergence of videos showing the incident online, some fans speculated that Antonoff might have been using earplugs to avoid Perry’s performance due to their past disagreement with Taylor Swift. However, it’s now been revealed that Perry has made peace with Swift, even attending one of her Reputation Stadium Tour dates in Australia. During Perry’s show, Swift was seen dancing and applauding the pop star.
