Taylor Swift’s unexpected Buckingham Palace moment before London concert reveals royals’ Swiftie side

Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour received a royal welcome in London. While it definitely wasn’t a great start since reports surfaced of her private jet being vandalized hours after it landed at Stansted Airport by climate activists, the Cruel Summer singer got a special shout-out from the royals. What made it even more memorable was the Royal Family themselves offering a warm and playful greeting to the pop star and sharing a video of the royal military band playing Swift’s Billboard-topping hit song.

Buckingham Palace’s military band plays Taylor Swift’s songs

The prestigious military band stationed at Buckingham Palace swapped their usual for a lively performance of Swift’s hit song, and the internet can’t stop swooning. Earlier today, the melodies of ‘Shake It Off,’ the lead single from her fifth studio album ‘1989,’ echoed through Buckingham Palace, capturing everyone’s attention. The royal family too didn’t shy away from playfully commenting on the performance video on Instagram Friday (June 21), just hours before Swift’s concert, saying, “Can’t stop, won’t stop groovin’,” in a playful nod to the song’s lyrics.
