Total surprise at the premiere of 'Toy Story 5': Taylor Swift bursts in with an unreleased performance of "You've Got a Friend in Me" and a new composition for the saga

Taylor Swift has been one of the main protagonists of the world premiere of Toy Story 5 at the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood, where she surprised the audience with a live performance and her participation in the film's soundtrack.

The surprise of the night came when Swift performed live a special version of Hay un amigo en mí (You’ve Got a Friend in Me), the franchise classic composed by Randy Newman. In an especially emotional moment, the artist shared the stage with Newman himself, creating one of the most celebrated moments of the gala. 

During the event, the singer also presented her new original song, I Knew It, I Knew You, a song composed specifically for the film and written with her regular collaborator Jack Antonoff. The song is part of the emotional universe of the film and is inspired by the character of Jessie, the cowgirl from the Pixar saga. 

In addition to her performance, Swift expressed her enthusiasm for having participated in the project, assuring that writing for these characters has been a childhood dream, as she grew up watching the Toy Story saga. Her connection to the film and her nostalgic approach were highlighted by those attending the premiere.

The presentation, held within the framework of the official premiere, turned the night into an unexpected musical and cinematic event, mixing nostalgia, new compositions, and the legacy of one of the most beloved animated sagas in cinema.

The premiere of Toy Story 5 is scheduled for its arrival in theaters next June 19.
