He knows she’s something special. Jesse McCartney thinks Taylor Swift dominated the music scene over Beyoncé in 2024. When asked which one of the pop superstars had a better year, McCartney exclusive told Page Six Monday night at The Grove’s annual tree lighting celebration in Los Angeles, “Oh, gosh.

” The “Beautiful Soul” singer went on, “Being the biggest-grossing touring artist, I think, of all time? And the amount of work she put into that doesn’t go unnoticed.” The 37-year-old then revealed that he attended Swift’s worldwide Eras Tour more than once. “I saw the show twice.
Enormous amount of work, what she does,” McCartney shared. “I play, like, two hours and I’m exhausted and I need two days off, and she’s doing three and a half, four hours like it’s nothing. I love Beyoncé; she’s one of the all-time greats.
