I’ll be washing my hair and will miss both. Such a shame.
The Exorcist is a franchise?
I really do not care unless this is about an exorcism at the White House to remove the perverted Biden demons.
The Devil is the franchise.
One should pay attention to an entertainment phenomenon that can garner revenue of 1 billion dollars. None of this woman’s music is familiar to me, but I plan to attend the theatrical presentation to see how she became so popular.
If she spews pea soup onstage they might have something
rather watch a cat use a litter box
NOT a fan of Swift but you gotta give it to her. She’s one smart cookie and a great businessman. She is 100% in charge of everything in her concerts and leaves no stone unturned. The gals who loved her are now mothers and she has another generation following her faithfully. I never cared for her voice. They clean it up in the studio but she’s not the best singer imo. And, she’s a raging liberal.
I can’t name a single song by this woman, but then she’s not making music for me. I do know tickets for her shows are commanding upward of $2500 a seat for nose-bleed seating in NFL stadiums, and she’s found a way to get around the traditional issue of some music company owning her masters by re-recording all of her older music - and getting her fans to buy the new stuff while ignoring the older stuff which she doesn’t have the right to. Smart business woman.

"Your mama sews socks that smell!"
No straight male will go to that Taylor Swift movie.
Oh yes. There was the very good first one. And then…a whole slew of garbage put out on a regular basis.
There is very little new under the sun.
This is the 6th movie, and the beginning of a planned trilogy. Ugh.
Thanks for info. I didn’t realize so many Exorcist movies had been made. I know I’m out of the loop on the popular culture.
I lost track of how many Star Wars movies have been made, but knew they were a franchise. But never knew Exorcist was one of those franchises.
Me neither, but then again I couldn't name a britney spears song or a miley cyrus etc or even Beyonce for that matter..
When her recent album came out, I told my adult daughters I would listen to it. I like to keep up with pop culture in general.
I’ve liked some of here stuff in the past. But, it was kind if juvenile. And that is OK.
I started listening on my daily four mile walk. I made it to mile 1 and then went back to my audio book. Some if her break up stuff us just dismal. No wonder young girls have anxiety these days.
But…she can run a music career like no others.
None of them after the first one are any good. And mostly haven’t even made much money. I’m not sure why they keep going back to the well. Although possession horror movies are pretty popular right now between the Conjuring/ Annabelle series and Insidious. So I’d suspect this is a “let’s make a possession horror series and call it Exorcist” type move.
