Taylor Swift and Paul McCartney once interviewed each other during a Rolling Stone chat

It comes as no surprise that the English singer came to show support at Swift’s concert. In 2020, during a Rolling Stone conversation, they discussed their similar technique of creating a concert setlist.

Speaking about how she was impressed with Paul McCartney’s “selfless set list,” she said:

“I think that learning that lesson from you taught me at a really important stage in my career that if people want to hear Love Story and Shake It Off, I’ve played them 300 million times, play them the 300-millionth-and first time. I think there are times to be selfish in your career and times to be selfless, and sometimes they line up.”
