Taylor Swift Accepts Sir Patrick Stewart Wishes to Join Her Squad

By Komfie Manalo

Don't be surprised to see legendary actors Sir Patrick Steward and his friend Ian McKellan wearing leather pants and walking the stage with Taylor Swift during one of her concerts. Sir Patrick and McKellan have been invited by Swift to join her powerful squad.

Sir Patrick Stewart posted an obviously edited picture of himself and his friend McKellan together with Swift's famous squad girls in happy response to the latter's offer for them to join her team.

Stewart captioned the photo posted on his Twitter page, @SirPatStew, "I hope this means I can finally wear leather pants in public." The photo shows Swift, celebrating with her famous friends, including Hailee Steinfeld, Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner, Cara Delevingne, Martha Hunt, Karlie Kloss, with McKellan and Sir Patrick "inserted" beside the girls.

The joke started with Sir Patrick tweeted on July 16 asking Swift if he could join her squad after he and McKellan recited the pop singer's songs. Sir Patrick tweeted, "So @IanMcKellen recited Bad Blood and I did Blank Space on @NPRAskMeAnother. May we join the squad, @taylorswift13?"

The 25-year-old gamely tweeted back, "Thanks for reciting my lyrics, @IanMcKellen and @SirPatStew! You've made my day. You two are ULTIMATE Squad Goals:"

To which Sir Patrick quickly replied, "OMG I DIE!!! (no really, I might. I'm old.)."

The exchange started when Sir Patrick and McKellan recited lyrics of Taylor's songs in a video created for Yahoo.

McKellan recited Taylor's Bad Blood, which reads:

"'Cause, baby, now we got bad blood

You know it used to be mad love

So take a look what you've done

'Cause, baby, now we got bad blood."

For his part, Sir Patrick read lyrics from Black Space over radio program, Ask Me Another, with the flare of a Shakespearian actor. That was then he tweeted Taylor to include him and McKellan in her squad.
