Taylor Swift fans are buying up trash left outside the pop star’s gargantuan wedding celebrations last week.
Swift tied the knot with football player Travis Kelce in a huge ceremony at Madison Square Garden on July 3, with the Empire State Building lighting up blue for the occasion. Now, cigarette butts, bottle caps and even an ovulation test kit collected near the wedding venue have gone on sale.
Justin Gignac, who collects trash on the streets of New York City and sells it, says on his website that he hand-picked the items himself.
Sold under the title “NYC Pocket Garbage: Not Invited Edition (Taylor & Travis’ Wedding),” the products were listed for as much as $25.
According to Gignac, the items include straws, one lone AirPod, a ring pop, a rainbow fan, utensils and caution tape, as well as the ovulation test kit.
However, Gignac says that shoppers will not be able to make requests and that items will be “randomly” selected by him.
“Sorry, no requests - only telepathy,” he continues. “Use your crystals, totems, and vision boards to manifest the one you want.”
In the listing, Gignac described the items as being taken from “as close to Taylor & Travis' big day as you could've gotten without an invitation”.
Gignac added, “This is the debut of Pocket Garbage, so you can carry a piece of the greatest day of your... I mean, their lives, wherever you go.”
According to his website, the trash has now sold out.

Gignac, who runs the TikTok account @newyorkcitygarbage, also shared a video of himself dressed in a tuxedo, brandishing a litter picker, while holding a black trash bag in his other hand.
“Did people think I was a wedding guest who decided to clean up the streets after leaving the party? Yes, yes, they did,” he wrote on his webpage.
According to TMZ, a bag of air collected at the wedding also went on sale on eBay for $49,999.99. Although nonsense, the item has been viewed more than 200 times.
Swift’s wedding on July 3 was attended by stars including Jessica Alba, Adam Sandler, Graham Norton and Lena Dunham.
Two attendees told NBC News that Swift and Kelce personally wrote their own vows, with the former’s even including some singing.
“You would think the bride would be the one crying more, but it was actually Travis that was more emotional,” one of the attendees said.
The two guests also said that music legends Paul McCartney and Stevie Nicks also performed during the celebrations.
Attendees were also invited to play games, which would allow them to win tickets to be submitted into a raffle. Prizes included designer bags and a 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle.
