More details are emerging about the musical performances at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Madison Square Garden wedding.
Former NFL punter Pat McAfee revealed on his eponymous ESPN talk show on Monday, July 13, that Avril Lavigne was among the stars who took the stage, joining the likes of Paul McCartney and Stevie Nicks.
According to McAfee, Lavigne, 41, serenaded the happy couple — and their A-list guests — with her 2002 hit song “Sk8r Boi.”
“I guess me saying Avril Lavigne played ‘Skr8 Boi’ was the first time that it came out,” he said. “But she was awesome.”
He added, “To be clear, those musicians … really cool. Like, one would just call out the other and then they would come up and they would just do their s***.”
McAfee, 39, said that he wasn’t familiar with all of the songs performed at the July 3 nuptials, including one by Swift’s pal Ice Spice, but the rapper “had a lot of energy up there.”
The ESPN analyst shared further details about his experience at the wedding on Monday’s episode of his talk show.
“That was the most spectacular evening I have ever been a part of. I cannot wait to chit-chat about that throughout the day,” McAfee said. “I’m sure there was something that I agreed to not talk about, but from the things that I’ve been reading about other people talking about it like kinda sorta cause there were no phones in there. There is no notes section, no writing or anything so it’s literally all just memory.”
McAfee also defended Swift and Kelce, both 36, from criticism over their lavish wedding in the middle of New York City.
“So anybody that’s saying anything negative about that place … now granted, shutting down a pulsing city and that whole thing, you guys can have your thoughts on that,” he said. “The event itself was like the most spectacular grand thing I’ve ever seen in my entire life.”
“I don’t want to give away too much but it was the greatest night of all time,” the former football player added. “My wife and I had a blast. They absolutely showcased that they are in love, it was very obvious.”
Other A-list guests included Brad Pitt, Bradley Cooper, Gigi Hadid, Selena Gomez, Jessica Alba and more.
“Travis had a huge smile. Taylor looked like she was having the absolute best time,” a source told Us of the wedding reception earlier this month. “She was smiling and dancing nonstop. The energy was unreal from start to finish.”
