Sir Paul McCartney appeared on BBC Radio 2’s Tracks Of My Years and discussed performing at Taylor Swift's wedding, which took place in May 2024. He revealed that he performed The Beatles' hit "I Want to Hold Your Hand", a song released in 1964, which was their first number one single in the United States. McCartney encouraged Swift to sing along with him during his performance and said she should dedicate it to her new husband, Travis Kelce. The wedding was attended by over 1,000 guests including other celebrities like Stevie Nicks of Fleetwood Mac. Earlier this year, Swift had also seen McCartney perform at the Fonda Theatre in Los Angeles, and they were featured together on the cover of Rolling Stone magazine years ago.
