Despite taking a huge dart in her career after giving out a rather unlikable and controversial interview about the upcoming "Snow White" movie, Rachel Zegler seemed to have turned the tables and tides when she appeared in front of the media for the new "The Hunger Games" film.

Zegler is starring as Lucy Gray Baird on "The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes." As she continues to promote the movie, she stopped by "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon" and talked about her "The Eras" Tour experience in New Jersey.

Rachel Zegler A True Swiftie

In her interview with Fallon, the late night show host pulled out a photo of her posing in a white cardigan at the MetLife Stadium in New Jersey hours before "The Eras" Tour started at the time.

Zegler revealed that she had food poisoning at the time she attended the said concert. When Fallon pressed if she was a "back-in-the-day Swiftie," Zegler confirmed she is - starting from the debut album, which she says she still eagerly waits for the re-record.

Fallon then asked Zegler if she is one of the people in the audience who predicts the next songs of the setlist and go crazy over the surprise song per night.

"I knew the setlist, I know the callbacks, I was waiting for the secret songs," she recalled. "My bestfriend Brenna had gone in Atlanta before the MetLife show, and I went to MetLife night one. And she said to my older sister, Jaqueline who I took to the show with me, she was like 'Jaqueline, if they play 'Getaway Car' or 'Maroon' she's on crisis watch.' Not only did she play 'Getaway Car,' she also played 'Maroon.' I was having a mental breakdown in the audience at MetLife Stadium."

Notably, Zegler mentioned that she was, in fact, making a joke that Ice Spice would come out on the show prior - only to be gagged that she actually goes out live to perform with Swift on their "Karma" remix.

Fallon suggests Zegler should win the lottery for having to predict correctly what came out, but the "West Side Story" actress says that she had that to attribute on her "Swiftie Manifestation" powers, which also says that "Reputation (Taylor's Version)" is bound to be released soon.
