AceShowbiz - Taylor Swift joked she was the "third wheel" as she watched two fans get engaged.
At a meet-and-greet event for fans backstage at the singer's "Reputation" World Tour gig at the Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia, Taylor was shocked as one got down on bended knee.
Sharing the moment in a series of photos on Instagram after the concert on Friday (13Jul18), the 28-year-old wrote: "They walk into the meet and greet and he says 'We met 5 years ago at the Red Tour' and then... #thirdwheel."
The snaps show Taylor looking surprised as groom-to-be Anthony pops the question to his stunned girlfriend Stephanie.
"I JUST PROPOSED IN FRONT OF TAYLOR SWIFT IN REP ROOM !!!!!!! Dreams really do come true!" he wrote on Twitter. "(Taylor) called me a baller and said that she is never surprised. She also said we were incredible and to go get married!!!! IS THIS REAL LIFE?!?!
"Thanks everyone for the love you are sending us! We did not expect this reaction at all! Making Taylor's Instagram is by far the coolest way to show off our perfect moment!"
He also revealed they had been picked at random to meet the star at the backstage event.

Anthony had created an anonymous Twitter account, called PHILADELPHIA SHOW PROPOSAL, and recruited the efforts of fellow Taylor fans to help him catch the attention of the Shake It Off hitmaker.
"Please RT to get Taylor's attention! I bought the ring. Now time to pull off an amazing proposal @taylorswift13 @taylornation13 #ReputationTourPhillyProposal," he shared in June, before revealing he had met Stephanie at Taylor's The Red World Tour in 2013.
