From my seat at Super Bowl LIX, the crowd’s disparate reactions to Swift and Trump felt like a chilling microcosm of our culture. …It was just a football game, people might say. Or Swift—who is famously dating Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce—got heckled by some rowdy Eagles fans excited to be at the biggest sporting event of the year. So? Don’t take it so seriously. …Perhaps the moment would have felt less visceral if not for the fact that less than an hour earlier the crowd had exploded—this time with applause—to see Trump on that same screen. As...

On Friday’s “Alex Marlow Show,” host and Breitbart Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow talked about the NFL playoffs.Marlow said, “You guys know the NFL just rigs it for the Chiefs, right? Because they need to have Taylor Swift at the Super Bowl. … [T]hat does seem real, right? … I don’t follow sportsball that close. I haven’t watched any football this year, I don’t think. … I’ve seen some of the calls.”

As Taylor Swift sings in her famed fan anthem “Long Live,” “Remember this moment.” For her loyal fans, there have been many of those moments since the "Eras Tour" kicked off in March 2023. Sunday night’s show was the last of that marathon tour, which has spanned nearly two years, five continents, 50 cities and a remarkable 149 shows — each of which has featured Swift singing, dancing and glittering for more than three hours. Swift said in June that the tour, which at the time seemed to be everlasting, would conclude in Vancouver in December. The tour, which featured...

VIDEOThe Good News for the Liberal Pink Hat Lady is that she seems to have completely gotten over her utter grief and despair over the election loss of her Beloved Kamala.

Here we see Liberal Pink Hat Lady (okay she does not wear a Pink Hat in every scene so sue me for misinformation) make highly detailed plans to arrive in the early morning (2:21 A.M.) at...

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is taking heat this weekend for being seen partying at a Taylor Swift concert while pro-Palestinian protesters were coursing through downtown Montreal and burning and looting as they went. Trudeau, who, along with being Labor Party Leader and the nation’s PM, also represents Papineau, a portion of Montreal, in the nation’s Parliament, but critics are blasting him for being about 330 miles away in Toronto for the Swift concert as his hometown burned. buildings and cars, and holding pro-Palestinian flags and banners.

A judge in Louisiana has temporarily blocked further efforts by state officials to clear homeless encampments in New Orleans — stalling a push that came ahead of three Taylor Swift concerts in the city this weekend. The effort to relocate about 75 people living in tents beneath an overpass near the Superdome began in the days leading up to pop star’s shows, which could draw 150,000 visitors to the stadium. Judge Lori Jupiter granted a temporary restraining order on Friday, directing state law enforcement officials to not “destroy or dispose of the property of unhoused people without judicial process” and...

Be like Taylor Swift. Cultivate friendships with people outside of your ideological circle — and keep them. Last week she wrote self-professed Swiftie Dave Portnoy a thank-you note for always having her back. And it was hand-delivered by her brother to the Barstool Sports honcho at her Miami concert. Nice gesture, right? Nope. As with anything in the Swift universe, it’s caused an earthquake: spawning think pieces, social media reactions and tons of coverage.

LOL!!! Someone flew a banner over Taylor Swift’s The Eras Tour in Miami that said: “TRUMP 2024 - READY FOR IT, CAT LADY? MAGA!” Absolutely incredible 🤣🔥🔥🔥

Taylor Swift has been at the top of the pop music charts for over 15 years. That's an eternity in show business. It's no accident.

Her studio recordings, her songwriting, her tours, her public appearances, and her advocacy have all been carefully structured to give her maximum exposure with minimum risk. Until she endorsed Kamala Harris for president. Swift transcended pop music to become an American icon. Her Harris endorsement has now squandered that precious admiration and goodwill and, for the first time in her hugely successful career,...

Former President Donald Trump lashed out at pop star Taylor Swift Sunday, declaring his disdain — days after she endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris. “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT!” Trump, 78, wrote on Truth Social in all caps, without elaborating further. Swift, 34, posted her endorsement of Harris just after the high-stakes ABC News debate between Trump and Harris last Tuesday. She previously backed President Biden in the 2020 election. “I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them,” the billionaire singer wrote on Instagram...

Taylor Swift’s Instagram endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday was perhaps the least surprising thing to happen thus far in the 2024 campaign. No courage is displayed when a celebrity toes the liberal line. Unlike the handful of entertainers who express alignment with the Republican Party, Ms. Swift risks losing none of the adoring media coverage and access to establishment power centers critical to maintaining status at the top of the A-list.Siding with the Democratic Party machine is easy for someone who will never have to face the consequences. A billionaire who has twice earned the title of...

Tim Walz is “grateful” that Taylor Swift, the pop star phenomenon, has endorsed his and Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign ahead of the 2024 election. Just moments after Harris wrapped her first debate with Donald Trump in Philadelphia on Tuesday, the 14-time Grammy winner revealed she will be circling Harris’ name on the ballot later this year. “I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them,” Swift, 34, said on Instagram. The endorsement was welcome news to Walz, who praised the singer’s “courage” to speak out.
