Last Saturday night in Kansas City, MO, Taylor Swift joined Keith Urban for what was her final stop on his 2009 Escape Together World Tour. To make sure she left a lasting impression, Taylor and her bandmates schemed a plan to prank Keith during his performance of “Kiss A Girl.”

The plan was executed to perfection as Taylor and team stormed the stage disguised as the band KISS. The outfits and facepaint were done to perfection. And if that was not enough, additional pranksters hit the stage dressed as lifesize Hershey kisses. Keith seemed unfazed by the assault, although Taylor did step in a couple times to sing the lyrics as Keith appeared to crack up nearby. If a picture is worth a thousand words, then this video is worth a million more.

Following the event, Taylor updated fans on her Twitter, “Last night on tour with Keith Urban. Pranking is a must. How about rushing his stage during “Kiss a Girl” dressed like this? It went down.”

Coincidently, Keith Urban’s Escape Together World Tour hits Hershey, PA on August 18. Don’t rule out a repeat performance by the life size Hershey Kisses at this show, but don’t count on another surprise performance by “KISS” anytime soon.

In other Taylor news, rap producer Timbaland recently told radaronline.com that he wants to work with the country superstar. “I think the main person I want to get is Taylor Swift,” he said. “I love her voice. I just think me and her can do something amazing.”

Timbaland contacted Taylor’s reps, but to no avail. “Her people said that she was busy,” he added. “She wanted to do it, but you know, there’s all these people you gotta go through and her people said she was busy? but I’ll make it happen.”

The producer says fans can expect a fusion of hip-hop and country if they record together. “It would have a country swing, but just a little bit of me. I know how to do that real good.”

  2. How awesome was that? I remember seeing the actual KISS band in concert back in the 70's when they first hit the airways…. They were awesome and so odd at the time compared to other bands during the late 70's. I have their first album too. Now seeing this is like a blast from past days…. Thank you Taylor and Keith. I loved you both in concert when you were in Rochester, NY in August 2009. I am so glad to see Taylor won the Album of the Year on the Grammys. I missed your performance there Keith, but will try and catch it on a re-run. Can't wait to see you in NY again this year. Come to Darien Lake Performing Arts Theater… it would be crazy great time! I'm a huge fan of Keith's and Taylor's too. Judy, LeRoy, NY
