Harry Styles References Ex Taylor Swift's MSG Wedding During Own Concert There

Two months after Taylor Swift said "I do" at Madison Square Garden, her ex took the same stage and couldn't resist a callback, kicking off his own 30-night run at the arena with a joke.

Harry Styles couldn’t help but mention his ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift during the opening night of his residency at Madison Square Garden on Saturday, August 29.

"We're at Madison Square Garden, home of the world champion New York Knicks!" Styles told the crowd to loud applause, before adding, "And they also do weddings."

The wedding in question was the highly publicized, megawedding of Swift to Travis Kelce in Madison Square Garden on July 3. The ceremony was officiated by comedian Adam Sandler, with roughly 1,000 guests in attendance.

Styles reportedly got an invitation but did not attend due to a conflict with his touring schedule, but his fiancée, Zoë Kravitz, made it to the star-studded event.

Styles, who was rumored to be the inspiration behind Swift’s 2014 hit, “Style,” dated the A-list singer from November 2012 to January 2013.

On the day of Swift’s wedding, Styles seemingly gave a nod to their relationship when he sang “Two Ghosts” during his Wembley residency. The song was believed to be his response to Swift’s “Style.”
