Taylor Swift didn’t just have a band at her wedding. She had a Beatle. Paul McCartney revealed on the October 2 taping of Jimmy Kimmel Live! that Taylor personally asked him to perform at her July wedding to Travis Kelce, and he said yes. That’s a pretty good wedding gift.
The song was The Beatles’1964 hit“I Wanna Hold Your Hand.”McCartney said he told Swift to sing along, and specifically to sing it to Kelce. The couple said their vows at New York City’s Madison Square Garden, where Swift wore a bespoke Christian Dior bridal gown. Kelce later called the night“the best night of my life,”and after a detail like this, it’s easy to see why.
Since the wedding, Swift has been a fixture at Kelce’s Kansas City Chiefs home games, showing up for every one this season and only skipping the September 27 away game because she was at the MTV VMAs. Between the wedding, the stadium tour of support, and a Paul McCartney performance, this is one celebrity era that keeps giving.
Would you sing along if a legend played at your wedding, or would you be too nervous to make a sound?
