Taylor Swift sang “Blank Space” at Max Singer and Kenya Smith’s reception in Long Beach Township on Saturday.
LONG BEACH TOWNSHIP, N.J. >> New Jersey newlyweds got an unexpected gift at their wedding reception: a performance by Taylor Swift.
The superstar played a stripped down version of her song “Blank Space” at Max Singer and Kenya Smith’s reception in Long Beach Township on Saturday as amazed guests looked on and sang along.
Swift agreed to attend after getting a letter in April from the groom’s sister.
She wrote about how her brother was a huge fan and how he and their ailing mother had danced to Swift’s song after the newlyweds were married in a hospital room. Singer’s mother died shortly thereafter.
Swift had contacted Singer’s sister and they planned the surprise visit.
Swift also presented the couple a special card that stated: “So It’s Gonna Be Forever,” a lyric from “Blank Space.”

At first glance this is a feel-good story about a superstar doing a beautiful gesture for a fan and his family. But at a closer glance you will notice that Taylor Swift has a net worth of $250 million. A visit by her was a really nice gesture. But Taylor Swift has broken the hearts of many girls who are denied access to her music through Spotify. Spotify is a place where people can listen to music for free. But the “free” part comes with a price, of course. That comes with advertising. Many children do not have the means to purchase her cd’s that run from ten dollars to fifteen dollars depending on where they are purchased. Because Taylor Swift’s demands were not given into, her music is not on Spotify. They are only available for purchase. Of course, some children have allowances and parents that buy everything that children want. But many children do not have the means to purchase her cd’s. Many turn to illegal downloads making them criminals. So, Taylor Swift: How much money is enough for you before you will share your music to the less fortunate children? That was a nice gesture to the family. I will give you that. But you can do more for the children by making your music accessible to them.
LOL !!!!
Another Slow day in Kaneohe ?
Great benevolent gesture from a great artist! This old Buck is not into this generation of music but can easily recognized kindness and goodness! Thanks for the good feeling Ms. Swift, it’s the icing on a nice Sunday afternoon! ” Little things mean a lot .”
