MUMBAI: Singer Taylor Swift has broken the Staples Centre record after performing her 16th sold out show at its arena.

The ‘Shake it off’ singer was overwhelmed when the basketball player Kobe Bryant came out on stage to commemorate the Swift's achievement.

The singer was performing at Staples Centre, Los Angeles on Saturday night when Los Angeles Lakers superstars Kobe Bryant came out on stage, saying that "16 sold out shows at the Staples Centre is the most of any artist ever", reports mirror.co.uk.

The screams you hear from an LA crowd when Kobe walks out onstage are so deafening you think you may have permanent hearing loss. But it was SO WORTH IT.

Ryan Tedder and I singing 'Counting Stars' at Staples Center tonight... It was so awesome to collaborate with him on Welcome to New York and I Know Places, then share the stage with him.
