Michael Bublé Says Seeing Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour Was at the ‘Top’ of His Family’s Christmas Wish List

Published by skeptic

Tis the season to be jolly! Michael Bublé sat down with ET to spill everything he does to get into the holiday spirit. For starters, the Canadian singer, 49, turns up his favorite Christmas tunes for the festive season.  Paul Morigi/Getty Images “Every year, since I was about 6 or 7 years old, my playlist has and always will be Bing Crosby’s White Christmas album,” he shared. In addition to playing to Crosby’s classics, Bublé’s family got to celebrate the 2024 holidays early by attending Taylor Swift’s  Eras Tour in Vancouver, Canada. “Going to see Taylor Swift was at the top of all our wish lists, and we are so grateful to have seen The Eras Tour last weekend in Vancouver. Taylor is truly an incredible entertainer and getting to witness the joy she brought to my daughters’ faces is something we will never forget for the rest of our lives,” he said. Beyond listening to the Swift’s hits, Bublé’s wife, Luisana Lopilato, and their four kids will also have his new song, “Maybe This …

Taylor Swift Fans Are Leaving X for Bluesky After Trump’s Election

Taylor Swift Fans Are Leaving X for Bluesky After Trump’s Election

Published by skeptic

Following the US presidential election, Swifties, the name for Taylor Swift’s fans, are fleeing X for Bluesky. X’s owner, billionaire Elon Musk, was one of Donald Trump’s biggest backers, funneling over $100 million into the Trump-supporting America PAC; stumping for the candidate on the campaign trail; and boosting Trump’s messaging on X. Musk also helped Trump tap into a distinctly right-wing male audience. Swifties, who have built a robust community on the platform formerly known as Twitter, took notice. By Thursday, less than 48 hours after Trump won the presidency, they were starting to flock from the platform for good. “I love the idea of building a new community here and would love not to have to support Elon in any way,” says Justin, who goes by @justin-the-baron.swifties.social on Bluesky and asked to use only his first name for fear of harassment. “Elon is of course a big Trump supporter, which doesn’t align with Taylor’s values or the values of Swifties.” Though there are Swifties on all sides of the political spectrum, the community prides …

Taylor Swift Ads Launch After Her Endorsement: ‘In Our Kamala Era’

Taylor Swift Ads Launch After Her Endorsement: ‘In Our Kamala Era’

Published by skeptic

Taylor Swift is in her Kamala era. The superstar singer-songwriter’s key phrase took over digital billboards in New York’s Times Square and on the Las Vegas strip Friday in a marketing push from the Democratic National Committee, spurred on by her endorsement for Vice President Kamala Harris and running mate Tim Walz. The highly visible ads came together after Swift’s debate-night endorsement post following Tuesday night’s face-off between 2024 presidential candidates Harris and former President Donald Trump. “We’re In Our Kamala Era!” and “A New Way Forward… Ready for It?” — the latter, referencing Swift’s song from her Reputation album — were emblazoned across multiple sky-high digital billboards. The Harris campaign has fully embraced the Grammy-winning artist’s support now that everything has changed with Swift weighing in on the U.S. presidential election. The Harris campaign site had been selling Harris-Walz friendship bracelets for $20. After selling out overnight following Swift’s endorsement, the campaign put in more orders — they are now available again for pre-order, with a purchase going to the Harris Victory Fund. Swift’s endorsement — …

Taylor Swift hugs Trump-supporter Brittany Mahomes at star-studded US Open final — best photos

Published by skeptic

It was a star-studded affair at the US Open finals on Sunday, September 8, where Taylor Swift and Brittany Mahomes were seen sharing warm moments, dispelling any rumors of tension between them. The two women were spotted side-by-side inside Arthur Ashe Stadium in New York City, soaking up the thrilling atmosphere of the men’s singles final match. Taylor, 34, arrived in style with her beau, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, also 34. The couple, who had attended a wedding the day before, appeared cozy as they joined their friends Patrick Mahomes, 28, and his wife Brittany, 29, in the stands. The camaraderie between the group was palpable as they laughed, chatted, and posed for photos during breaks in the tennis action. Taylor opted for a chic summer look, sporting a red and white gingham sundress that perfectly complemented her trademark cat-eye sunglasses. Her blonde hair was styled effortlessly, framing her face as she stood by her friends and boyfriend. Known for her iconic sense of style, Taylor balanced casual elegance with a dash …

Taylor Swift meets with two girls caught up in UK dance class stabbing

Swift’s mother Andrea Swift can also be seen posing in the gallery with Foster’s family. In one of the pictures, one of the girls has a bandage on her forearm with a lyric from Swift’s song Cardigan that goes: “You drew stars around my scars.” Sami Foster also used Swift’s Enchanted as the background music for her post. It’s not known how many families Swift has met with during her London run, but Foster is reportedly not the only one to have been invited to a meet-and-greet with the singer. Taylor Swift has not publicly addressed the meetings. It was reported that before the start of her five-night run at Wembley, she had privately reached out to the families of the three girls killed in the Jul 29 attack – Alice Dasilva Aguiar, nine, Elsie Dot Stancombe, seven, and six-year-old Bebe King. Eight other children and two adults were also injured in the assault, with six listed in critical condition at the time. Merseyside police announced on Aug 6 that the injured children had been …

Trump posts image of fake Taylor Swift endorsement

Published by skeptic

“Swifties for Trump is a massive movement that grows bigger every single day,” Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung said in a statement when asked for comment about the fake Swift image. Several Swift fans and watchdog groups said many of the images posted by Trump appeared to be deepfakes generated by artificial intelligence. Advocates in the music industry, Hollywood and Washington have been pushing for federal legislation and other measures to fight the explosion of fake AI images online. Trump’s post was “yet another example of AI’s power to create misinformation”, consumer group Public Citizen said. “The potential harms to our society that could result from such misinformation, including abuses of our elections, are wide-reaching and immensely damaging,” the group added. At the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Swift fan Rebecca Goff handed out friendship bracelets, a common practice among the singer’s fans, at a Nevada Democratic Party breakfast. Goff, 39, said she felt Trump was the antithesis of what she believes Swift stands for, including celebrating girlhood and womanhood. “That’s like the antithesis of …

For example: “This picture drives the leftwing extremists CRAZY!” the account wrote alongside a photo of Swift onstage in a shirt reading “Who’s Kamala Harris anyway? Ew.” If those leftwing extremists are design snobs, then yes, totally, this would drive them crazy, because the photoshopping of Harris’s name onto the shirt is so obvious to the naked and untrained eye—you can plainly see the outline of the text box around the swapped-in lettering. The font doesn’t even come close to matching. The alignment is off. In no way does it look real. It’s truly wild, and, yes, might drive a person crazy with how bad it is. X content This content can also be viewed on the site it originates from. Another picture that the account shared claiming it drives liberals “insane”: A photoshopped image of Swift at last year’s Grammys, a pro-Trump flag plopped over her Schiaparelli gown. While Swift has not yet made an endorsement in the presidential election, she’s made her feelings about Trump clear in the past. Spoiler: They are not …
