- Graham Norton teases mystery “big star” at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding.

- The host would only say “he” had yet to be a guest on his BBC talk show.

- “I don’t think I’ve seen their name anywhere,” said Graham, who also admitted to being “quite drunk.”

There were hundreds of celebrities at Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s wedding, but one A-list attendee might still be a mystery to the public.

Graham Norton dished about the $30 million event while chatting on the *Wanging On With Graham Norton and Maria McErlane* podcast, and revealed he got the opportunity to chat with “one big star” who also happens to be his “white whale.”

“But I can’t tell you who it was,” the talk show host teased Maria McErlane. “Because I would have to tell you that they were at the wedding, and I don’t think I’ve seen their name anywhere. So I’m not sure if people know they were at the wedding.”

Norton did offer two clues: The mystery star is a male and he’s yet to be a guest on his talk show, which has aired on the BBC since 2007. “I’ll give you that,” he told McErlane. “*He* came up and said, ‘Oh, uh, I’ve been meaning to come on your show.’”

However, Norton was admittedly “quite drunk” so he could have misinterpreted the conversation, he joked. “So, he might have said, ‘I’m never coming on your f---ing show.’ But my drunk brain went, ‘He’s talking to me!’”

Despite the reported NDA all wedding guests were required to sign, many of the celebrities in attendance at Madison Square Garden have been identified, including the biggest names in entertainment and sports: Steven Spielberg, Tom Cruise, Paul McCartney, Stevie Nicks, Tom Brady, Emma Stone, Bradley Cooper, Selena Gomez, and on and on.

Looking at the clues provided by Norton, he’s previously gone on record to say there are two “dream guests” he wants on his show — Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio — and only one of them was at the July 3 wedding.

ESPN personality Pat McAfee confirmed he interacted with the *Heart of the Beast* actor at the reception when Pitt brought him a “Jack and diet” from the bar.

“I’m sure there was something that I agreed to not talk about,” McAfee said on his eponymous show, “but from the things that I’ve been reading about other people talking about it like kinda sorta ’cause there were no phones in there. There is no notes section, no writing or anything, so it’s literally all just memory.”

Norton first brought up Pitt’s name in 2016, after news broke the actor and Angelina Jolie had split. Last July during an interview on *This Morning*, he reiterated, “We’ve still never had Brad Pitt. Never had him. He’s about the last of those kind of old-school kind of Hollywood stars we haven’t had.”
