‘Really, really, really special guest': Taylor Swift pops in to ‘Shake It Off' at boyfriend Kelce's Nashville charity concert (VIDEO)
The event, held at Brooklyn Bowl as part of Tight End University, featured country artists Jordan Davis and Chase Rice, along with a special guest appearance by Kane Brown.
According to American Songwriter, Brown teased the audience before introducing Swift by asking, 'Do y'all care if I bring out a really, really, really special guest?'
Swift emerged on stage to screams from surprised fans, gave Brown a hug and spoke to the crowd before launching into a high-energy rendition of her hit single Shake It Off.
'See, the one thing tight ends have in common with Nashville musicians is — we're all friends, right? So you know, we're up there,' she told the crowd in a video posted by X user @JackTomo7139.
'And we're having some drinks. We were thinking like, 'How loud could this place get?'
'So, I was like 'but I don't have a guitar', and then Chase Rice was like 'you can use mine', so we would like to dedicate this to our favourite players who are going to play,' she added.
She enlisted Brown to play tambourine during the performance and praised his contribution, telling the crowd, 'Honestly, have you ever seen a tambourine played like this? This is fantastic work by Mr. Kane Brown.'
She also revealed the performance had been decided at the last minute.
'Will you please give it up for this amazing band who just figured out that we were going to play that three minutes ago?' Swift said.
A source told People that Swift and Kelce spent time together with guests during the event and that 'Taylor was having the best time watching all the country music artists and showing her support for them.'

Does humanity deserve to survive? ‘Alien: Earth' unleashes terrifying new monsters in prequel to Ridley Scott's 1979 classic
LOS ANGELES, Aug 14 — Both new and familiar alien lifeforms lurk around in the Disney series Alien: Earth, based on the original 1979 Ridley Scott Alien movie. 'By bringing the story to Earth, we're shifting to, 'can humanity itself survive, right?' And then it becomes a question of, 'well, what is humanity, and do we really deserve to survive?'' director Noah Hawley told Reuters. 'These creatures that are coming, are a kind of representation of the natural world reasserting its dominance, right? Reminding us that we're still part of the food chain,' the Fargo creator added. Alien: Earth, which begins streaming on Hulu and FX on Tuesday, follows a group of travellers with various jobs that are drawn into action when a spacecraft carrying alien samples crash-lands on Earth. It is set two years before the first Alien movie that introduced audiences to actor Sigourney Weaver's character, Ellen Ripley, and the terrifying alien called a xenomorph. Other than the xenomorphs that fans are familiar with, there are four other deadly creatures on the crashed spacecraft. 'These creatures have some, to varying degrees, great recognition factor,' said producer David W. Zucker. 'They're sort of perverted versions of insects and otherwise that we can recognise. So, I think that brings it into an even more sort of visceral place, not to mention, touching upon certain sensations that we're already familiar that they can invoke,' he added. Don't Worry Darling actor Sydney Chandler portrays the show's lead named Wendy, a metahuman with the body of an adult human and the mind of a child, who leads a team that also has adult bodies with childish minds, called The Lost Boys, onto the crashed spaceship. 'Kids are great acting teachers. They're so present, they're so honest, instinctual, they do what their body tells them to do or what their mind thinks of right away,' Chandler said, referring to her approach to Wendy's child-like mannerisms. — Reuters

Working on this, I was physically exhausted at this point in the tour, but I was so mentally stimulated and so excited to be creating." In an Instagram post, the 35-year-old revealed the album's artwork and 12-track listing – with Sabrina Carpenter featuring on the title song and only collaboration.
