Alyson Hannigan Had A 'Freakout' Over Taylor Swift's American Pie Shoutout

Alyson Hannigan recalled having a total Swiftie moment after Taylor Swift shouted out the 1999 comedy film American Pie in one of her songs.

Hannigan, who starred as Michelle Flaherty in the American Pie franchise, told Vulture in an interview published Thursday that she had a freakout after Swift mentioned the movie in So High School, a song from the pop stars latest album, The Tortured Poets Department.

In the track, Swift sings, Im watching American Pie with you on a Saturday night / Your friends are around, so be quiet.

In her Vulture interview, Hannigan revealed she stayed up late to listen to The Tortured Poets Department when it first dropped, only to fall asleep and wake up to Swift having released the albums second part, The Anthology, which contained 15 more tracks, including So High School.

I started listening to it, and when I got to So High School, I was like, What?! Hannigan recalled. I thought maybe I was still sort of sleeping and imagining it. But when I heard it, I was freaking out. I woke up my entire family, who seemed less enthusiastic than Id like them to be. Then I called a friend, and she and I had a nice freakout together.
