Taylor Swift Jokes Brad Paisley's Cricket Prank Left Them 'Estranged Since 2007'

Taylor Swift brought the jokes to the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. Inducted Monday night by Brad Paisley, she opened her speech by roasting him over a prank from almost two decades ago, according to Variety and Rolling Stone.

Swift, who opened for Paisley on his 2007 Bonfires & Amplifiers Tour, said the two had been "estranged since 2007" because he took a tour prank too far. Per her speech, he filled her tour bus with thousands of live crickets, and the chirping kept her up for months. She even said she thought about getting a pet lizard to deal with them.

She then let him off the hook, saying his introduction was so good that "I think we're good now."

Swift, 36, is reportedly the youngest artist ever inducted into the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. Lainey Wilson performed "Love Story" during the tribute.
