Through a prerecorded video, superstar singer/songwriter Taylor Swift made an appearance at Alan Jackson’s farewell concert in Nashville — eliciting some boos from the crowd.
The Saturday night concert was a tribute to country singer Jackson’s touring career, titled “Last Call: One More for the Road — The Finale,” Entertainment Weekly reported.
The concert had a series of tributes and covers from singers like Carrie Underwood, Miranda Lambert, Luke Combs and Luke Bryan, with the second half of the concert being Jackson’s time onstage.
However, before Jackson came out, the announcer told the crowd there would be “one more video.” It was a surprise tribute from Swift, who started her career in country music.
When the video played, the crowd erupted into a chorus of both boos and cheers — drowning out the words of Swift’s tribute, Entertainment Weekly reported.
“I appreciate you so much for the ways that you have just treated me and the other artists and writers with such support and encouragement over the years. And I am so excited for your show.”
Videos have been circling on social media of the fan reactions, including a post made by USA Today Entertainment.
The news of the mixed reactions comes as speculation surrounding Swift’s wedding to football star Travis Kelce is increasing.
Some believe the pair will wed this weekend in New York City at Madison Square Garden. The New York Times cited an unnamed entertainment industry executive and “another person with knowledge of the matter” to report that the Swift-Kelce nuptials will take place at Madison Square Garden on July 2 and 3.
