Taylor Swift Snaps Selfie With Prince William After Royal Welcome From Buckingham Palace
HuffPost
The palace honored Swift with a brass band cover of her 2014 hit "Shake It Off," before she posed with royalty and performed in front of nearly 90,000 fans.
Taylor Swift and her record-breaking Eras Tour took London by storm Friday.
The Grammy winner not only serenaded nearly 90,000 fans at Wembley Stadium, but snapped a backstage selfie with none other than Prince William and two of his children, Prince George and Princess Charlotte.
“Happy Bday M8!” Swift wrote Saturday alongside her photo with William, who turned 42 this week. “London shows are off to a splendid start.”
Within hours, the picture had garnered millions of likes on Instagram. Though Swift’s boyfriend, Super Bowl champion Travis Kelce, was included in that photo, William also took to social media to post an alternate picture without him.
Swift was given a warm welcome across London, whose transportation system shared a redesigned transit map in her honor, replacing the names of regular stops and lines with references to her music.
