Surprise! Taylor Swift pulled off a "Christmas miracle" for a World War ll veteran when she turned up at his home in New Madrid, Missouri, on Monday, December 26, and performed for him.
The “Blank Space” singer, 27, spread a heap of holiday cheer for 96-year-old Cyrus Porter, who earlier this year became famous for being her oldest fan.
Porter’s grandson Robert Frye posted several pictures and videos to Twitter showing Swift arriving at their house, posing for photos and singing for the family.
She even got a tour of Porter’s WWll memorabilia.

Swift’s decision to surprise Porter, who has been to several of her concerts with his grandchildren, came after he expressed his love for her in an interview with his local news station KFVS and the video went viral.

"Look what she does, she puts on a show no one else puts on," he said. "I just liked the way the way she did stuff."
No doubt he likes her even more now!
