Contrary to popular belief, Jack Antonoff was putting earplugs in his ears during the performance. Jack even hopped onto social media to share the reason behind it.
i would like to tell you directly from me that i did in fact use earplugs the other night. they were blue ‘hearos’ brand and im mortified to admit that i’ve been using them for a long time as well as buying them in bulk. i would also like to be honest and get ahead of that fact-

Lets not all jump to conclusions! Jack Antonoff is a well known music producer for Taylor Swift, Sabrina Carpenter, and more incredible artists. There’s a reason for everything!
