Sports broadcaster Pat McAfee revealed on his ESPN show that pop-rocker Avril Lavigne performed her hit song 'Sk8r Boi' at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's wedding reception, held at New York's Madison Square Garden. McAfee described the performance as 'awesome' and the evening as 'the most spectacular' he had ever been part of. The wedding, which featured other A-list performers including Sir Paul McCartney, Stevie Nicks, and Haim, was kept highly secretive with guests required to sign electronic NDAs and invites individually watermarked to prevent leaks. Adam Sandler officiated the ceremony for around 1,000 guests, and the couple chose their brothers, Austin Swift and Jason Kelce, as 'man of honour' and 'best man' respectively, opting out of bridesmaids and groomsmen.

Avril Lavigne’s Secret Performance at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s Wedding Revealed
Details of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s star-studded wedding remain largely under wraps, but a new report has shed light on a previously unconfirmed A-list performance.
It was already well-documented that musicians including Sir Paul McCartney, Stevie Nicks, and Haim performed at the newlyweds’ reception, held at New York’s Madison Square Garden earlier this month.
However, sports broadcaster Pat McAfee has now claimed that another major artist took the stage—one whose appearance had been kept secret until this week.
McAfee’s Account
Speaking on Monday’s edition of his ESPN show, McAfee revealed that pop-rocker Avril Lavigne performed her signature hit Sk8er Boi at the reception. He described her set as “awesome.”
“[It] was the most spectacular evening I have ever been a part of,” McAfee said. “I cannot wait to chit-chat about that throughout the day.”
He added that while he likely agreed to keep certain details confidential, he felt comfortable sharing the news after seeing others discuss it publicly.
“I’m sure there was something that I agreed to not talk about, but from the things that I’ve been reading about, other people [are] talking about it, like, kinda sorta ’cause there were no phones in there. There is no notes section, no writing or anything, so it’s literally all just memory.”
Security and Secrecy
In the lead-up to the wedding, reports indicated that Swift and Kelce took extensive measures to prevent leaks. According to TMZ, guests were required to sign electronic NDAs, and invitations were individually watermarked so any leaks could be traced.
What We Know So Far
- Officiant: Comedian and actor Adam Sandler officiated the ceremony.
- Guests: Approximately 1,000 people attended.
- Wedding Party: The couple opted out of having bridesmaids and groomsmen. Instead, Swift’s brother Austin Swift served as her “man of honour,” and Kelce’s brother Jason Kelce acted as his “best man.”
