At this rate, Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen are going to perform enough dramatic readings of Taylor Swift lyrics to fill an entire album. Stewart has already read "Blank Space" and McKellen covered "Bad Blood," but on Entertainment Tonight, Stewart recited yet another hit single off of Swift's 1989 album, this time performing "Style."
Stewart already asked if he and McKellen could join Swift's squad on Twitter, and she responded, calling the duo the "ULTIMATE Squad Goals." So when are Stewart and McKellen going to be officially inducted into Swift's star-studded group of BFFs? "I'm on standby," he says. "She's going to be in Los Angeles shortly, so who knows?"
Taylor Swift took to Twitter on to thank two Knights of the Realm Sir Ian McKellen and Patrick Stewart for reciting her song lyrics. The 25-year-old pop star was thankful after Ian, 76, recited lyrics from Bad Blood and Patrick, 75, delivered lines from Blank Space. Sir Ian delivered his lines while promoting his new movie Mr. Holmes on Yahoo.
The stage and screen star added a certain gravitas to the single featuring rapper Kendrick Lamar that reached numer one on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. '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,' he said rather dramatically.
A teaser audio clip featured the Royal Shakespeare Company veteran reciting lyrics from Taylor's hit song Blank Space that also climbed to the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart. 'I get drunk on jealousy / But you'll come back each time you leave / Cause darling I'm a nightmare dressed like a daydream,' Patrick said with elan.
The Star Trek: The Next Generation star in his tweet to his nearly two million followers asked Taylor about joining her posse of pals.
