What a surprise! Taylor Swift performed her first set since February’s Super Saturday Night concert and since Ed Sheeran was also a performer at Jingle Ball, she brought him out to sing “End Game.” Sheeran co-wrote and sings on the song on Swift’s brand new album Reputation which has been breaking records left and right! It was also named the top 7th album of the year by Rollingstone. The performance marked the first live performance of “End Game” and it was definitely a highlight of the night!

Swift performed along with her back up singers (The Starlights), Kamilah Marshall, Melanie Nyema, Eliotte Nicole and Clare Turton Derrico. They showed off their moves as they sung about big reputations and shaking it off.

She then proceeded to “Blank Space” cuz we’re young and we’re reckless, we’ll take this way too far.

Although two former members of One Direction were performers last night, Zayn was not one of them, so Swift performed “I Don’t Want To Live Forever” on her own! She also mentioned how it was just nominated for a GRAMMY!
I don’t wanna live… foreverrrrr!
This one’s for you @zaynmalik… wish you were here! #iHeartJingleBall pic.twitter.com/cTjeJ2Ij2o— iHeartRadio (@iHeartRadio) December 2, 2017
Next, Sheeran joined Swift for a verse on “End Game” which was such an amazing surprise we should have seen coming!
Swift ended her set with her 1st single off Reputation “Look What You Made Me Do” which has already hit #1.
