Taylor Swift flees Long Beach Island bar after SHUTTING DOWN street when HUNDREDS of Swifties flocked to see singer
Taylor Swift fled a restaurant in Long Beach Island, New Jersey after being the cause of a major road being shut down as her presence at pal Jack Antonoff’s star-studded wedding rehearsal dinner caused quite a commotion.
Hundreds of the 33-year-old hitmaker’s diehard fans – known as Swifties – made their way to the Black Whale corner bar just for a chance to get a glimpse of the music icon.
Taylor – who was seen out with pal Ed Sheeran the previous day – is in town to celebrate her 39-year-old music collaborator’s nuptials with 28-year-old actress Margaret Qualley.
The megastar arrived at the star-packed event with Channing Tatum and Zoe Kravitz to an uproarious ovation from her pᴀssionate fans.
Taylor, Zoe, and Channing were not the only stars at the gathering as Lana Del Rey, who has also often collaborated with Antonoff, was also there in addition to mother-of-the-bride Andie MacDowell
Police ended up having to arrive outside of the popular Long Beach Island spot to ensure that the mᴀssive crowd was behaving themselves.
Taylor looked absolutely stunning upon her arrival at the Black Whale as she stunned in a two-piece strapless dress.
Her signature dirty blonde locks were worn down into an elegant updo with her fringe hanging to just above her eye.
There were several video’s of Taylor’s presence at the neighborhood bar all over social media including a TikTok of her arrival with the 34-year-old songstress and 43-year-old actor seen from inside of the restaurant.
The scene grew even more chaotic as hundreds of fans could be heard chanting ‘Taylor! Taylor!’ as the wedding rehearsal was in full swing.
Other video footage showed the mᴀssive crowds who had lined the street in hopes that they would be able to catch a glimpse of the Bad Blood hitmaker.
Finally after the wedding rehearsal dinner had commenced, Taylor quickly walked down the steps with her thespian pals and made her swift exit alongside a security detail.
Earlier in the day news of the pop megastar’s arrival had spread around the neighborhood amongst locals who made their way to the Black Whale in droves leading to law enforcement having to direct traffic according to Page Six.
At around 8:45pm the eatery ended up shutting the balcony curtains which was a move met with boos by the Swifties in attendance.
The publication reports that the rehearsal dinner had wrapped around 9pm as Swift and Del Rey left promptly.
Black Whale is definitely a change of pace for the megastar who is used to life in the lap of luxury as it is a modest bar and fish house which was established in 2005.
Before this the eatery’s claim to fame was as the neighborhood bar for the township of Beach Haven on Long Beach Island.
