“Is he single?” Swifties swoon over cop swapping bracelets with 7-year-old Taylor Swift fan outside concert
An unlikely conversation between a US police officer and a seven-year-old girl has sent social media users wild.
Scarlett Wood was in line to go to the Taylor Swift concert in Detroit, Michigan, when she noticed a police officer on patrol wearing a number of friendship bracelets on his wrists.
Speaking to local TV station WZZM13 News, Scarlett said, “There was a long queue, so we were coloring in the shadows.
“Then I saw people trading with the police officer. So I wanted to do it too.’
Captured on camera by Scarlett’s family and posted to TikTok, the undeniably adorable moment sees the towering Trooper Justin Roberts crouch down so the young Taylor Swift fan can not only check out his bracelets, but choose the one she wants.

Trooper Justin Roberts helped Scarlett choose a bracelet by suggesting a purple one that would match her dress.
When Scarlett struggles to choose one, the patient police officer gently encourages her to ask, “What’s your favorite song?”
He sees the color of Scarlett’s dress and suggests she choose a purple bracelet to match – and she happily agrees.
Captioned “Swiftie cops, so sweet and patient with her,” the clip showing the adorable interaction has already been viewed 6.5 million times and received 1.3 million likes.
The moment clearly captured the hearts of TikTokers, with more than 4,000 of them leaving comments under the video post.
One user wrote, “Well this is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.”
Another, already a few steps away, said, “I just want to know if this man is single, because my heart melted.”
A third woman agreed, exclaiming, “This is so attractive.”
A very proud Marge Mathews simply declared, “That’s my son.”

A fifth TikTok user was particularly touched by the attention Trooper Justin Roberts paid Scarlett, writing, “The way he picked one to match her outfit.”
Another person was encouraged by the policeman’s actions: “This gives me more hope that there are actually good cops in the world.”
Swapping friendship bracelets at Taylor Swift concerts has become popular among the singer’s fans, perhaps spurred on by the lyric “Make the Friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it” in the song “You’re On Your Own Kid.”
Speaking to the news station, Leah Wood, Scarlett’s mother, said: “I thought it was very nice of him to be so patient with her.
“He seemed like a really great guy.”
