Remember way back when, when Prince William and Prince Harry were frequent tabloid fodder for their rock 'n' roll lifestyles? Well, William was back in the headlines today for his recent activity with Taylor Swift...but no need for Kate to be worried. The aristocrat performed with Swift and rocker Jon Bon Jovi as part of a charity concert. 

William helped to organize the benefit, supporting one of his favorite causes: Centrepoint, an organization supporting homeless youth between the ages of 16 and 25. The show was the first ever concert to be held at Kensington, the palatial estate of William and his family, as well as his brother Harry. Only 750 tickets were available, and for the prices they fetched, fans could assume they were going to get something unique. 

That moment came when the prince joined Swift and Bon Jovi for an acoustic version of the latter's "Livin' On A Prayer." The royal performed admirably, or at least admirably enough to merit a double-high five from the country star. 

"This is my first time playing at Kensington Palace or any palace for that matter," Swift told the crowd in jest. 

Bon Jovi and Swift weren't the end of the night's entertainment. Other musical guests included James Blunt, pop vocalist Eliza Doolittle and rapper Tinie Tempah. Actor Benedict Cumberbatch was also in attendance, but didn't sing according to reports.
