Kirsten told the Canadian Broadcasting Co.

Back in 2016, Taylor surprised two fans, Max Singer and Kenya Smith, at their New Jersey wedding. Apparently the groom's sister had reached out to Taylor to inform her of the wedding and let her know that Max and his mom used to dance to "Blank Space" frequently in the hospital before his mom died. Much to the crowd's delight, Taylor sat down at the piano and began singing "Blank Space" at the reception.

In December 2020, a newlywed couple were celebrating at their reception at Stoke Park Hotel in the UK when the groom noticed Brad sitting at the hotel bar.

The former president was minding his own business, playing a round of golf at a course in San Diego, when an excited bride and groom ran down to greet him. Their wedding photographer had spotted the president first and told the bride, "I bet you if we went down there, he would take a picture,” and then she started running. Barack did take a few photos with the happy couple (but I guess that technically, you could say they crashed him).

In 2015, Jennifer crashed a wedding in Texas as part of her partnership with W Hotels Worldwide and the Human Rights Campaign. She sang "I Still Love You" to the lucky couple.
