Paul McCartney believes Taylor Swift is experiencing the same kind of global fame that once surrounded the Beatles at the height of Beatlemania.
Speaking on the BBC show Traces of my yearsPaul said he could clearly see a connection 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 advice from him because she’s already handling her success well.
He joked that he felt more like a grandfather figure to today’s young artists.
Paul also shared details of a party thrown 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 and how he’s learned to live with the public attention over the years.
However, he admitted that he avoids taking selfies with his fans because he wants to continue to feel like himself instead of becoming a photo attraction.
