Taylor Swift
kicked off her 1989 World Tour on May 5, 2015, in Tokyo, Japan – and almost every night thereafter featured some type of magical surprise, a song that wasn’t on the set list – and/or a special celebrity guest.

The stage itself became its own palatial spectacle and featured a catwalk where fans got used to seeing some of the world’s biggest stars join the 26-year-old singer.

From Justin Timberlake to Nick Jonas and Mick Jagger, these are THE 12 best stars who hit the stage with Taylor – in order of when they appeared.


1. Taylor’s “Squad”

Hailee Steinfeld, Lily Aldridge, Gigi Hadid and Lena Dunham (who all happen to be featured in the "Bad Blood" music video) joined Taylor on stage in East Rutherford, NJ on July 10.


2. The Weeknd

The pair, who each scored seven Grammy nominations last week, sang a duet of “I Can’t Feel My Face” in East Rutherford, NJ on July 10.

The daytime talk show host made concert-goers laugh with her sparkly tutu-ensemble as she danced down the catwalk.

11. Justin Timberlake

JT was Taylor’s final guest in L.A. – and what a treat! The twosome sang “Mirrors” – and the performance marked his first since becoming a dad in April.


12. Mick Jagger


The Rolling Stones frontman joined Taylor in Nashville, TN
on Sept. 26 for a performance of the rock band’s song, “(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction.”

Taylor’s world tour came to a close last week -- on Dec. 12 in Melbourne, Australia (which was also the day before her 26th birthday). The tour raked in over $250,000,000 dollars and will surely go down in history as one of the most successful of all time.
