The real magic happened when they added a humorous twist to their appearance, roasting Ellen herself with some clever lyrics.
Their standout moment was a rendition of Foster the People’s hit, “Pumped Up Kicks.”
Efron led with vocals while Swift provided harmonies, and their voices blended perfectly.
The performance started off traditionally, but quickly morphed into a playful roast aimed at Ellen.
Efron joked about strange occurrences, while Swift playfully took shots at Ellen for the show’s famous hidden camera pranks.
Fans couldn’t get enough of the pair’s chemistry, with many commenting on how they’d rewatched the video multiple times. Despite being filmed several years ago, it remains a fan favorite.
Swift, known for her amazing duets with a wide variety of singers, previously worked with Ed Sheeran on their hit song “Everything Has Changed,” but this collaboration with Efron was really something special.
Though Efron is primarily recognized for his acting, his singing talent didn’t go unnoticed.
While he didn’t sing much in the first High School Musical, by the sequels, he fully embraced his vocal abilities.
He also showcased his musical side in Hairspray, solidifying his credentials as a versatile performer.
During the show, Swift’s witty lyrics poked fun at Ellen’s habit of always asking her about her dating life.
Rumors about Swift and Efron dating have floated around for years, especially after they were seen dining together in Los Angeles.
However, in a 2013 Ellen Show interview, Swift set the record straight, stating that they never dated.
