A video of a man destroying a 'Taylor Swift' guitar as a Texas charity event has gone viral — but the guitar was not autographed by Swift.

Man Smashes Taylor Swift Guitar After Paying $4,000 for It

The weird get weirder. He apparently spent $4000 to smash a guitar that was next to a signature.

A man who for some reason smashed up a guitar with a hammer in Texas may have thought it had been signed by Taylor Swift — but it was not, in fact, an official Swift-certified guitar.

But contrary to media reports, the guitar the man destroyed had not been signed by Swift — and was not a certified official guitar used by the singer, a source close to her merch company confirmed to Variety. The organization that held the auction, the Ellis County WildGame Dinner, presented the guitar with a signed CD insert but the guitar itself was not signed.
