When Taylor Swift took the red couch at The Graham Norton Show on October 3, fans expected plenty of laughs, music talk, and a few cheeky surprises. But what no one anticipated was how Cillian Murphy ’s hilariously subtle reaction to her engagement ring would steal the spotlight.
Taylor Swift shows off her “hardware upgrade” while Cillian stays composed
During the episode, Taylor Swift joined an impressive guest lineup including Cillian Murphy, Greta Lee, Jodie Turner-Smith, Lewis Capaldi, and Domhnall Gleeson. The pop superstar chatted about her Eras Tour, her freshly released album The Life of a Showgirl, and her highly publicized engagement to NFL star Travis Kelce .
When host Graham Norton congratulated her on her “new finger jewellery,” Swift playfully responded, “the hardware upgrade?” before holding up her hand to reveal the dazzling ring. The audience erupted in applause, fellow guests gasped, and yet there was Cillian Murphy, smiling politely and clapping with quiet composure.
While Greta Lee and Jodie Turner-Smith showered Swift with compliments, Murphy’s understated expression immediately went viral. His reaction, or rather the lack of one, became an internet meme within hours.
Internet turns Cillian Murphy’s subtle reaction into meme gold
Fans on social media couldn’t get enough of the Irish actor’s unbothered demeanor. “Cillian could not have cared less lmao,” one user commented under The Graham Norton Show ’s official Instagram post. Another joked, “This is the most I’ve seen Cillian smile.”
Others chimed in with lines like, “Cillian’s meme face is memeing,” and “Someone get poor Cillian off that couch with her!” One fan even quipped, “Cillian is suffering,” while another added, “I like how Cillian is strategically placed right next to her.”
Even as Swift joked, “I could just watch it like it’s a TV,” Murphy’s only response was a subtle smirk, a moment that fans say perfectly captured his cool, detached Irish charm.
