0:03 Cala Rocashock Media. Hey there, Swifties, it's your girl, Annalie's Idol back with another jam packed episode of Taylor Swift. Today. We've got a whole bunch of exciting stories to share with you, So grab your favorite cardigan, pour yourself a cup of tea, and let's get started. First up, we have to talk about the adorable musical exchange between Taylor and Charlie Puth. In her latest album, The Tortured Poets Department, Taylor gave a shout out to Charlie, singing, we declared Charlie Puth should be a bigger artist.

0:44 Well, it looks like Charlie was definitely paying attention. He just dropped a new single called Hero, and it's pretty clear that it's a response to Taylor's lyrical call out. In an Instagram video, Charlie thanked a mysterious friend named Hero and even used some of Taylor's lyrics, writing, I declare that Hero will be out everywhere on May twenty fourth. These two are giving us all the feels with their musical appreciation for each other. It's so refreshing to see artists supporting and uplifting one another, and we can't wait to see what other collaborations might come out of this budding friendship. Now, let's shift gears to a song that's striking a chord with teachers everywhere in I can do It with a broken heart. Taylor sings about putting on a brave face and being productive despite dealing with heartbreak. The lyrics are resonating with educators across the country who know all too well what it's like to mask personal struggles and put on a smile for their students. Mattie sans Pain, a high school English teacher in California, shared a powerful story about learning her grandmother was dying in the middle of the school day. She had to push her feelings down and keep teaching, saying, you really have to pretend sometime that what you're teaching is the most important thing in the whole day, when we're whole humans. Too many teachers are lip syncing the lyrics I cry a lot, but I am so productive it's an art, and posting them on social media. We see you, teachers, and we appreciate all that you do. Keep being the

2:15 heroes you are and know that Taylor and her fans are cheering you on every step of the way. But wait, what's this? Is there some drama brewing between Taylor and Dua Lipa. In a recent interview, Dua talked about the massive stigma that she believes has plagued pop music, especially for female artists. She claimed it's difficult for female pop artists to be taken seriously unless they're behind a piano or a guitar. Swifties were quick to point out that Taylor is known for playing acoustic songs on both piano and guitar at her eras tour shows, and some even suggested that Doua's comments might have been a subtle dig at Taylor's musicianship. Dua also mentioned that she doesn't feel the need to put someone on blast in her songs to get catharsis, which some fans interpreted as a jab at Taylor's reputation for calling out past lovers in her lyrics. However, it's important to note that Dua never actually mentioned Taylor by name, and some fans are coming to DOA's defense, saying she was simply describing her own writing process and the challenges she faces as a female pop artist. Could this all just be a big misunderstanding? Blown out of proportion by the media and over zealous fans. It's hard to say for sure, but one thing's for certain. Both Taylor and Dua are incredibly talented artists who have made significant contributions to the pop music landscape. Let's celebrate their individuality and respect their artistic choices, even if they differ from one another more in a moment. In more

4:00 lighthearted news, Travis Kelcey made a solo appearance at the Kentucky Derby, looking sharp in a white suit and top hat. While there was no sign of his girlfriend Taylor, Travis seemed to be enjoying himself, even landing some winning bets. He was spotted celebrating in an owner's suite and had attended a pre Derby party with The Chainsmokers the night before. Speaking of the Chainsmokers, remember when they played Tailor's You Belong with Me At the Chief's Super Bowl after party, Travis jumped on stage, sang along, and pumped his fists in the air. Talk about a memorable moment. It's clear that Travis is a supportive boyfriend who's not afraid to show his love for Taylor and her music. We can't help but swoon over their adorable relationship. But wait, there might be a little trouble in paradise. According to a celebrity lipreader, Travis's over the top behavior at a recent event in Las Vegas may have been a bit too much for Taylor to handle. The lipreader analyzed Taylor's response to Travis belting out Viva Las Vegas on stage at his teammate's gala. Allegedly, Taylor turned to a friend and said that again, I can't do it, while shaking her head. Uh oh. Could there be some tension brewing between the love birds.

5:12 It's hard to say for sure, but it's important to remember that lip reading is not an exact science and the lipreader's interpretation could be way off base. Plus, even if Taylor was a little exasperated by Travis's antics, it doesn't necessarily mean there's serious trouble in their relationship. Every couple has their moments, and it's possible that Taylor was just a little embarrassed by Travis's enthusiastic display. The fact that Travis publicly referred to Taylor as his significant other during an auction at the event suggests that they're still going strong. Here's hoping they can laugh off any awkward moments and continue to support each other in their respective careers.
