## Resource

Paul McCartney stunned fans by pulling out a legendary Beatles classic, “I Want to Hold Your Hand,” at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s secret Madison Square Garden wedding — a song he hasn’t performed live since 1964. The surprise came after the ceremony, when McCartney and Stevie Nicks took the stage at the reception, hosted by Taylor’s mom, Andrea Swift. The duo’s impromptu set echoed their decades-long mutual admiration — Taylor recently called Paul “eternally exceptional,” while he’s likened her fame to Beatlemania. Their onstage chemistry dates back to a 2015 SNL afterparty jam. Meanwhile, the couple’s $26 million charity donation and the mayor’s Swift song shoutouts turned this wedding into a national cultural moment — proving how deeply these artists still shape our world.
