00:00:03.359 --> 00:00:07.000
I welcome to Taylor Swift Today,
a short round up of all the headlines

2
00:00:07.040 --> 00:00:15.720
around Taylor's music, tours, movies, and wife. At Taylor Swift Today,

3
00:00:15.880 --> 00:00:18.719
you won't find any in depth analysis
on lyrics to her music, and

4
00:00:18.800 --> 00:00:23.239
we won't pine about the true meetings
behind some of her lyrics because there's dozens

5
00:00:23.280 --> 00:00:26.519
of other podcasts for that. We're
here just to bring you the headlines.

6
00:00:26.600 --> 00:00:29.280
So if there's a Swifty in your
life, you'll be the cool one who

7
00:00:29.320 --> 00:00:34.840
knows what's happening in her life.
Did Taylor Swift scare the Exorcist out of

8
00:00:34.960 --> 00:00:40.000
theaters? From movie Weeb? The
Exorcist Believer was originally scheduled to open in

9
00:00:40.039 --> 00:00:44.479
theaters on Friday, October thirteenth.
However, the Taylor Swift The Earrors Tour

10
00:00:44.600 --> 00:00:48.840
has now not only laid claim to
that date, but it appears that Swifties

11
00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:52.320
are going to make it nearly impossible
for any other film to compete with the

12
00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:58.000
Earrors Tour on its opening weekend.
Thus, director Jason Blum made the decision

13
00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:03.359
to open the Exorcist sequel a week
earlier, on Friday October six. It

14
00:01:03.439 --> 00:01:07.200
may have been the right move for
Blumhouse to Make Tickets are already on sale,

15
00:01:07.239 --> 00:01:11.760
and sources told Deadline that pre sales
for Taylor Swift's theater event has already

16
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:17.640
sold over ten million dollars worth of
advance tickets. Jason declared Taylor the winner

17
00:01:17.719 --> 00:01:22.040
in his post as the CEO of
Blumhouse Productions made the decision not to tangle

18
00:01:22.040 --> 00:01:26.159
with a musician's film on that weekend. Swift's movie will play in AMC,

19
00:01:26.359 --> 00:01:30.239
Cinemak and Regal venues for four weekends
in a row until November fifth, and

20
00:01:30.280 --> 00:01:34.079
it will also be shown on Halloween
Night, the only standalone day of its

21
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:41.000
four weekend engagement. From Billboard.
Miley Cyrus is strolling down memory lane in

22
00:01:41.040 --> 00:01:45.879
her ongoing TikTok series based on her
new single Used to Be Young, and

23
00:01:46.040 --> 00:01:49.840
in Part nineteen, she reflects on
a throwback photo in which she's seen walking

24
00:01:49.879 --> 00:01:55.359
alongside her Hannah Montana co star Emily
Osmond, Taylor Swift, and Demi Levado

25
00:01:56.000 --> 00:02:00.560
while the other three girls looked party
ready and dresses and hills a scene in

26
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:06.040
sweatpads and oversized cardigan and slipper like
boots. This picture has become a meme

27
00:02:06.120 --> 00:02:08.000
where it says, be the Miley
of your friend group, she says,

28
00:02:08.159 --> 00:02:12.800
looking at the photo. If you
guys didn't know I was bisexual from this

29
00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:15.479
damn picture, I don't know what's
wrong with you. The thirty year old

30
00:02:15.520 --> 00:02:21.280
superstar added that the Gauls were headed
to the cheesecake factory after the Grammy Awards.

31
00:02:22.000 --> 00:02:24.520
These are some classy ladies, she
teased. Earlier in the day,

32
00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:29.919
Cyrus looked through a video of herself
dancing the hoedown throwdown from two Thousand Nines

33
00:02:30.199 --> 00:02:34.039
Hannah Montana the movie. This was
the original, kind of like a TikTok

34
00:02:34.199 --> 00:02:38.479
dance, she explained. She then
called out the choreographer Jamal Simms for his

35
00:02:38.599 --> 00:02:43.719
hat before joking, Honestly, my
zipper jeans aren't doing anything for me either.

36
00:02:45.360 --> 00:02:49.159
From Fox News, a Taylor Swift
concert security guard was fired after breaking

37
00:02:49.199 --> 00:02:53.960
the photo policy. The Minneapolis guard, Calvin Denker, seemed to be having

38
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:57.520
fun as he sang along to Cruel
Summer during Swift's performance in the viral clip,

39
00:02:57.879 --> 00:03:00.120
but the fun ended soon after when
he was fired had from the security

40
00:03:00.199 --> 00:03:05.400
gig. The former security guard made
a TikTok video detailing his plans for a

41
00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:09.400
photo opportunity with the bejeweled singer and
didn't realize he would be penalized for it.

42
00:03:09.840 --> 00:03:14.759
Denker told Fox News Digital that he
had handed out little pieces of paper

43
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:17.759
to a few concert goers during a
shift and requested that a few audience members

44
00:03:17.840 --> 00:03:22.639
take a photo of him Whence Swift
was nearby. I received a call A

45
00:03:22.639 --> 00:03:25.599
couple of days later. I spoke
to an HR woman and she cited that

46
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:29.960
me handing out those pieces of paper
was why they were going to be cutting

47
00:03:30.039 --> 00:03:34.039
ties with me as an employee,
he added. After Denker was fired for

48
00:03:34.120 --> 00:03:38.280
his concert fiasco, he was surprisingly
asked to be a security guard at the

49
00:03:38.479 --> 00:03:40.960
Ed Sheerin show. The security company
called him and explained that since he had

50
00:03:42.000 --> 00:03:45.360
shown remorse for his concert stunt and
that he regretted doing it, they would

51
00:03:45.400 --> 00:03:50.400
allow him to work another event.
Once Denker's video went viral, he said

52
00:03:50.400 --> 00:03:53.319
his message inbox was flooded with office
to work as a security guard at other

53
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:58.560
venues in Minneapolis. He's currently working
full time as a software engineer, with

54
00:03:58.599 --> 00:04:02.960
no plans to pursue security in the
future. Back with more of Taylor Swift

55
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:12.080

00:04:26.480 --> 00:04:31.160

Nicole Kidman and Yes, Barbie director
Greta Gerwig, while giving a Midas like

well over one billion dollars, with
