Taylor Swift’s Tour Opener Owenn AKA Christian Owens Has Performed with Beyonce

Swifties were beyond excited when Taylor Swift revealed that she would be going on tour.

On the day after Halloween, November 1, 2022, the songwriter took to her Instagram handle to announce the great news. “I’m enchanted to announce my next tour: Taylor Swift | The Eras Tour,” she first wrote.

Swift then described her Eras Tour as a journey through the musical eras of her career, including the past and present. “The first leg of the tour will be in stadiums across the US, with international dates to be announced as soon as we can!” she added.

Along with such good news, the Midnights singer said she felt like the “luckiest person alive” to take some of the “brilliant artists” on tour with her as her opening acts. “I can’t WAIT to see your gorgeous faces out there. It’s been a long time coming,” she concluded.

As for her opening acts, they are Paramore, Haim, Phoebe Bridgers, Beabadoobee, Girl in Red, Muna, Gayle, Gracie Abrams, and Owenn.

And among these nine artists, one has particularly caught the public’s eyes — Owenn.

Who is Owenn?

Owenn, who goes by the full name of Christian Owens, is a rising R&B artist and a talented dancer and choreographer. He has been winning the audience’s hearts through his rich vocals and heartfelt lyrics.

In March 2021, he released his debut single, ‘Baby Girl,’ on his self-titled YouTube channel, where he has also uploaded a couple more songs. As of now, he is set to release his debut EP in 2023.

Now, to talk about his past, Owenn has worked with multiple renowned artists such as Beyoncé, Lil Nas X, Rihanna, Demi Lovato, Normani, and Miley Cyrus.

Talking about his professional relationship with Beyoncé, he first worked with her in 2011 on the Grammy Winner’s ‘Love on Top’ music video. Years later, he was one of the dancers at Beyoncé’s Homecoming performance at Coachella 2018.

Owenn’s recent work was with Lil Nas X, and the two seem to have a great friendship. In 2021, Owenn and Nas X stepped together at the Met Gala. And some months ago, in September 2022, he opened for the pop artist during his tour.

Owenn’s history with Taylor Swift

If you are a Swiftie, then Owenn might look a bit familiar. And that’s because he has had quite a professional history with Swift.

To begin from the start, Owenn was one of Swift’s dancers on two of her tours; the 1989 Tour and Reputation Tour. Additionally, he served as the main dancer for Bad Blood for Swift’s 1989 stadium tour.

As Owenn and Swift’s professional friendship continued, the latter asked the former to be her co-star and love interest in her ‘Lover’ music video. And with the music video garnering over 200 million views, it put more spotlight on Owenn.

Later, Swift pulled some strings so that Owenn could get his first-ever record deal. While speaking candidly on his Instagram live session, he said, “We had a whole bunch of label meetings. Taylor Swift was a huge co-sign and help…a lot of people don’t know.”

He continued, “She actually contacted the head of Republic herself on my behalf, which was kind of crazy. I get to the meeting. They were like ‘Yo, why is Taylor Swift so adamant about us signing you? We want to see you perform!’”

And for all that Swift has done for him, Owenn has always expressed his gratitude in one form or another. He also uses his social media platform to send birthday wishes to Swift and describe moments he shared with her.

When Swift announced Owenn as one of her opening acts, he posted a video on Instagram where he said, “I’m so excited. Coming from dancing for her for 1989 and then dancing for her for Reputation to starring as her love interest in Lover, it’s been a full ride.”

“And I just wanna come here and personally thank her because it’s honestly 100% up to her, and I always say she can choose anyone, and she chose me, and I’m very grateful for that,” he added, after which he also thanked the Swifties for their love and support.

Cosmo Jarvis Likes to Keep His Dating Life Private, May or May Not Be Married to a Wife

Published

on

Harrison Cosmo Krikoryan Jarvis, popularly known as Cosmo Jarvis, is an accomplished 36‑year‑old British‑American actor, musician, and filmmaker. He started out as a musician and got into films in the late 2000s.

Jarvis is popularly known for his breakthrough roles in films like Lady Macbeth, Calm with Horses, and his 2022 release Persuasion.

He has also guest‑starred in a number of popular TV shows like Peaky Blinders, Funny Face, Nocturnal, and Raised by Wolves. In an interview with the Persuasion star, The Guardian mentioned that his first feature film, The Naughty Room, was what got him started in the world of cinema.

For his critically acclaimed roles in films like Lady Macbeth and Calm with Horses, he has been nominated for various prestigious awards, including the British Independent Film Awards and London Critics‘ Circle Film Awards.

Besides films, Jarvis has been equally active in his musical career. “Gay Pirates,” the first single from Jarvis‘s second album, was a cult hit and was voted number 85 on Triple J’s Hottest 100 of 2011.

Cosmo Jarvis’ Dating History

Jarvis is an extremely private person and has no public social media presence. Due to his personal preference, he talks very little about his romantic relationships.

He has not made any public announcements regarding his personal life. As of now, there is little to no credible information about his past as well as present relationships or girlfriends.

The 36‑year‑old actor was speculated to be dating a few celebrities in the past. The two actresses Jarvis has been linked with are Florence Pugh and Dakota Johnson. Both actresses have worked with him. Pugh starred alongside Jarvis in Lady Macbeth (2016), while the actor appeared with Johnson in Netflix‘s adaptation of Austen’s Persuasion (2022). There is, however, no evidence that confirms those dating rumors. Some unsubstantiated online reports have also linked him to his Shōgun co-star Anna Sawai as part of the same pattern of baseless celebrity gossip.

In one of his interviews, the actor told Square Mile that he‘s not interested in being extremely famous.

He said, “It’s a job. I just want to live and die quietly. I am an employee. Of what worth is fame when so many greater minds than mine, so many wiser, more honorable, more enlightening and enlightened, kind, forgiving, ingenuitive and braver men and women than me aren’t anointed with it?”

Cosmo Jarvis’ Mystery Wedding?

While the personal life of the actor largely remains a mystery, some articles speculated that the actor is happily married. Qmunicate Magazine has reported that Jarvis tied the knot with his long‑time partner Emily in an intimate ceremony in 2024.

However, the authenticity of the news remains unconfirmed. In fact, multiple credible sources have pointed out that Jarvis is not married, has never commented publicly on his relationship status, and that the name “Emily” is not associated with any known relationship confirmed by public records or media.

As one outlet put it, “no credible source has verified this information” and “Cosmo Jarvis’ wife remains a mystery for now – if she even exists”. The actor has steadfastly refused to address any of these rumors, and no verified photographs of him with a romantic partner have ever surfaced. In short, whether Jarvis has a wife or not is a question that only he can answer — and he has chosen not to.

Is Cosmo Jarvis Gay?

Following the music video release of Jarvis‘ hit song “Gay Pirates,” many people had a lot to say about his sexual orientation. The song, which is described as a “folksy stomp designed to tackle homophobia,” features the star in the role of a gay pirate. The video was conceptualized, directed, and filmed by Jarvis himself.

Speaking to AfterElton about “Gay Pirates” and the buzz around it, Jarvis said, “The idea was that people in the audience might be the people who think like that [that being gay is bad] and might get into the music before they get into the story of the song so that before they know it they are dancing around and they are being enthusiastic about the song and then when they realize what it’s about, they have no excuse not to continue dancing with the same enthusiasm.”

He further added, “I‘m not gay, but growing up we had this game called Gay Man Chicken, where two guys face each other, and go to kiss, to make out seriously, and whoever wimps out first is the one with the problem about being a homosexual. The guy who does it doesn’t have a problem with his sexuality, because it’s just kissing a guy.”

Jarvis has publicly refrained from discussing his sexual orientation any further.

Cosmo Jarvis’ Upcoming Projects

The Lady Macbeth actor joined the cast of The Alto Knights (released in 2025) alongside Robert De Niro. The film is a gangster drama based on a script by Nicholas Pileggi, famous for Goodfellas.

Jarvis also appears in the American historical drama Shōgun, which is based on the novel of the same name by James Clavell. The series premiered on February 27, 2024, on FX and Hulu. Jarvis has since been confirmed to return for Season 2 of Shōgun, which began production in January 2026 in Vancouver. He will also serve as a co‑executive producer on the second season, a promotion from his role in the first season.

Additionally, Jarvis has been cast in Guy Ritchie’s upcoming black comedy thriller Wife & Dog, scheduled for release in US cinemas on October 23, 2026. The film features an ensemble cast including Benedict Cumberbatch, Rosamund Pike, Anthony Hopkins, James Norton, and Paddy Considine.

Conclusion

Cosmo Jarvis has never confirmed being married — nor any relationship. Whether he keeps a wife or a partner completely out of the public eye or remains happily single is entirely his own business. What is clear is that the intensely private star intends to keep it that way, focusing instead on his craft rather than the gossip columns.

Choosing self-love
