Paul McCartney believes Taylor Swift is experiencing the same kind of worldwide fame that once surrounded The Beatles during the height of Beatlemania.
While speaking on the BBC show Traces of my yearssaid Paul that he could clearly see a correlation between Taylor’s level of popularity and what his band experienced in the 1960s.
However, the music legend also made it clear that Taylor doesn’t need guidance from him because she’s already handling her success well.
He joked that he feels more like a grandfather figure to today’s younger artists.
Paul also shared details of a party hosted by his wife Nancy Shevell and daughter Stella McCartney where he met several young stars including Billie Eilish, Olivia Rodrigo and Sabrina Carpenter.
He praised them all for their talent and strong voices.
The legendary singer also opened up about fame, explaining that he has learned to live with public attention over the years.
