    Gracie Abrams has hinted that she's open to an acting role

    The 26-year-old music star - who is the daughter of film director J. J. Abrams - admits that she's intrigued by the prospect of acting at some stage in her career.


    Gracie told The Hollywood Reporter: "I love a group project. The concept of being on a set is as thrilling as being on tour where everyone who's there is there for a reason. These kind of creative environments are so incredibly inspiring to me. So yeah, who knows? We'll see. We'll see."

    Gracie is focused on her music for the time being, but she intends to remain tight-lipped about her new material for the foreseeable future.

    She said: "I'm going to keep it under wraps, I suppose, until the moment. But right now I'm just very proud.

    "It's definitely my favourite music I've ever made, and I feel very closely connected to it. I appreciate so much that these albums are time capsules of where I'm at in my life at any given point, but right now it does feel very like me.

    "I hope that whoever finds it, connects with it and that they make it theirs when it's out one day. But not yet."

    Meanwhile, Gracie previously revealed that she feels at her sexiest when she's physically fit.

    The music star admitted that her workout routine is key to how she feels about herself.

    She told Cosmopolitan magazine: "To be honest, I feel the sexiest when I feel the strongest physically.

    "I'm someone who notices a difference in my mood on the days I've worked out versus not. It's a relationship I work on with myself often.

    "During COVID, when we were all home, I started doing pilates workout videos in an obsessed way and it became unhealthy."

    Gracie insisted that hard work and dedication are the keys to her enviable figure.

    The singer - who toured with Taylor Swift in 2024 - said: "There's no end to the discourse on women's bodies, like Jesus f****** Christ! Shut up!

    "It's not complicated! It's not your body. I don't have a routine. I swear on my life."
