"She DJs at parties now" — Austin Butler says Taylor Swift was DJing at Paul McCartney's house party

Austin Butler appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live! on Monday, June 17, and he and the host spoke about "the craziest party" they had ever been to. The Dune: Part 2 actor and Kimmel reminisced about a gathering at Paul McCartney's house, which was attended by some of the industry's biggest stars.

"Last time I saw you was at maybe the craziest party I’ve ever been to in my whole life,” Jimmy Kimmel recalled.

Butler agreed, as he said:

"That was insane."

Thereafter, the two spoke about how 14-time Grammy winner Taylor Swift made the party even crazier by becoming the DJ for the day.

“She [Taylor Swift] DJs at parties now,” quipped Butler while talking about Paul McCartney's party.

Just a few days before the interview with Jimmy Kimmel, Austin Butler had commented on his favorite Taylor Swift era in an interview with BBC Radio 1. The 32-year-old revealed that his favorite Swift era is Reputation, i.e., 'the one with the snakes.'

Austin Butler and his girlfriend Kaia Gerber were also in attendance at Taylor Swift's Eras Tour concert in Los Angeles last August.

Austin Butler and Jimmy Kimmel talked at length about the high-profile guests at Paul McCartney's party

While talking about the celebrities who attended the party, Austin Butler recalled that Taylor Swift was 'DJing at one point'.

However, the two didn't disclose the songs Taylor Swift played at the party. Instead, Austin joked about being starstruck after seeing the cohort of celebrities in attendance. The 32-year-old revealed that he was too spellbound by the appearance of Meryl Streep and hid in the kitchen to eat pizza. However, someone pulled him out and finally introduced Butler to The Devil Wears Prada star.

“I couldn’t believe I was meeting Meryl Streep with Paul McCartney’s vegan pizza in my mouth,” joked Austin.

Other big names who attended the party included Ringo Starr, Mick Jagger, Bruce Springsteen, and members of the Rolling Stones.

“To see Paul and Ringo [Starr] in the same room was kind of amazing,” exclaimed Butler at one point.

Later in the episode, Austin Butler told Kimmel a story from that party. Bruce Springsteen told him about a time he jumped the fence to enter Graceland to meet Elvis Presley. Springsteen told him that he wanted to meet Elvis in order to give him a song.

“I had heard this mythical story, but I heard it from him of being a huge Elvis fan and hopping the gates at Graceland to try to get up there. And he knocked on the door and wanted to give Elvis a song,” recalled Butler.

Butler added that Springsteen didn't reveal the song and shared that he was bummed about not knowing the name of the song.

"He somehow evaded the dogs — he’s a fast runner. I’m so bummed I didn’t get to hear that song," commented Austin Butler.
