“Side note: She had one day off from her very exhaustive tour schedule,” Swift revealed. “Her show is physically full on and spectacular, and she could’ve been resting in her time off.”

“One of the reasons I respect her so much is that she does things like this, goes out of her way to give fans a surprise moment they didn’t expect,” the “You Belong with Me” popstar continued. “She’s as real as they come and I’m so thankful she did that for us.”
