QUEEN of pop and all-round babe Taylor Swift gave a shout out to King’s after she won Best International Female at the Brit Awards last night.
Speaking backstage after the event she said: “I started out playing King’s College and eight years later I’m getting ready to play Hyde Park” adding: “It’s like… what?'”
Swifty played her first ever UK gig at the old Tutu’s nightclub in the Macadam Building at Strand in 2008 – around the time of the release of her first hit single ‘Love Story’ from her second album Fearless.
Swift is not the only Brit Award-winning superstar to have graced the Tutu’s stage – Arcade Fire, Haim, and the Foo Fighters (who won Best International Group last night) have also played Tutu’s.
The five-time multi-platinum singer beat the likes of Beyoncé and Lana Del Rey to last night’s award – her first British award after eight years of releasing records in the UK.
Check out the stars who played at King’s before they were famous.
Ah, too bad you closed down Tutu’s, now Kings wont be making anymore pop legends,eh?
