Tom Cruise leads large names at Taylor Swift’s second Wembley present

Taylor Swift is set to perform in front of a star studded audience tonight as her second Wembley show gets underway.  

A host of A-list celebrities including Mission Impossible star Tom Cruise, Ashton Kutcher, Mila Kunis and Hugh Grant are among thousands of Swifties who have descended on the capital for another night of her sell-out Eras tour.

Last night the American megastar, 34, sent the capital into a frenzy as she delighted 90,000 fans with renditions of Hits Different, Death By A Thousand Cuts and The Black Dog.

But the most stunning moment of the night came as the star took one of the most iconic pop-culture selfies of all time – posing up next to Prince William, Prince George and Princess Charlotte as the delighted royals shared a moment with the singer.

Earlier in the concert, the Prince of Wales had stunned the crowds as he was spotted pulling out his best dad-dancing moves as the trio partied through the concert alongside thousands of other Londoners.

Ms Swift’s first show in London was always going to be special for her as she shares a close affiliation with the capital after she called it her second home for the six years she was dating British actor Joe Alwyn.

She performed to nearly 90,000 adoring fans at a sold-out Wembley Stadium last night and was clearly overwhelmed by the huge crowd 

During the show she said: ‘Oh my God, London, look what you’ve done. What better way to spend a Friday night than in the most exhilarating city in the world?’

And once the show had finished one family got to share a very special moment with the American megastar.

A sweet selfie taken by Taylor showed the moment the Queen of Pop met fellow royalty as Prince William, Prince George and Princess Charlotte posed with her backstage.

The Love Story singer’s NFL beau Travis Kelce also smiled for the photograph while wearing his Team USA Olympics hat.

Although the selfie was truly star-studded, royal fans were only drawn to Charlotte.

With her pink sparkling dress, plaited hair and wide toothy grin, people could not help but compare the young princess to Queen Elizabeth II

Swift captioned the adorable selfie by wishing Prince William a 'Happy Bday mate!'

One royal fan wrote on X: ‘Fantastic photo! Princess Charlotte is so like her great granny, the late Queen.’

Another gushed: ‘OMG. Princess Charlotte looks more and more like our late Queen.’

Someone tweeted: ‘She is developing into a beautiful young lady who so resembles both her late great grandmother the Queen and her father, the Prince of Wales.’

One user pointed out: ‘I don’t think I’ve ever seen a photo of Princess Charlotte looking so happy. That’s so sweet!’

Princess Charlotte, 9, attended the glitzy concert with her brother Prince George, 10 and her father Prince William – who whipped out some hilarious ‘dad dancing’ moves to celebrate his birthday.

The Prince of Wales was captured grooving along to hit song Shake it Off.

Comments posted on X, formerly Twitter, in response to footage of William dancing included: ‘This is my favourite thing ever!!! I never knew I needed to see Prince William dancing to Taylor Swift!’

Another poster wrote: ‘Prince William is a Swiftie. Immense dad dancing there.’

Prince William and megastar Swift have long known each other – the pair shared the stage at Kensington Palace to perform Livin’ On A Prayer with Jon Bon Jovi at a charity event in 2013.

And it seems the Prince of Wales has remained a Swiftie since.

The 90,000-strong crowd also included fellow royals Zara and Mike Tindall as well as Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer.

Starmer posted on X that he took a ‘Swift campaign pitstop’ to enjoy the concert with his wife Victoria.
