Kalarogashok Media. Welcome to Taylor Swift
Today, your daily dose of all things

2
00:00:16.320 --> 00:00:21.320
Taylor. Let's dive into the latest
headlines surrounding our favorite pop stars, music

3
00:00:21.600 --> 00:00:27.679
tours, movies, and personal life. Taylor Swift surprised many SoCal fans when

4
00:00:27.679 --> 00:00:31.519
she was spotted having a low key
night out at Barney's Beanery, a dive

5
00:00:31.559 --> 00:00:35.359
bar in West Hollywood, on April
fourth. The thirty four year old singer,

6
00:00:35.719 --> 00:00:40.159
known for her lavish outings at high
end restaurants like Spago and Nobu Malibu,

7
00:00:40.240 --> 00:00:44.280
with her NFL boyfriend Travis Kelcey,
spent a couple of hours chatting and

8
00:00:44.320 --> 00:00:49.439
eating with friends before heading out with
her security guard paying the tab. Glamour

9
00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:53.520
editor Sam Reid tells us Barney's is
where we went in college when we were

10
00:00:53.560 --> 00:00:58.359
already shitfaced in trying to buy one
beer for like five dollars. Though it's

11
00:00:58.359 --> 00:01:02.119
hard to predict where Swift and kelse
My pop up next, rumor has it

12
00:01:02.159 --> 00:01:06.760
the couple spent Easter with Travis's family
in Pennsylvania, where Swift met his three

13
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:10.359
nieces for the first time, before
the pair flew back to Los Angeles on

14
00:01:10.439 --> 00:01:14.760
April first. While you should typically
take this kind of report with a grain

15
00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:19.760
of salt. One TikTok user noticed
that Ed Kelcey aka Papa Kelcey shared the

16
00:01:19.799 --> 00:01:26.000
story on his own Facebook page.
According to Cosmopolitan, seems legit. Moving

17
00:01:26.040 --> 00:01:30.079
on to some tour news, Morgan
Wallin's attempt at a lighthearted joke about Taylor

18
00:01:30.159 --> 00:01:36.439
Swift during his concert in Indiana backfired
on Friday night. The thirty year old

19
00:01:36.480 --> 00:01:41.079
country crooner, who recently followed Swift's
lead in re recording his earlier work,

20
00:01:41.599 --> 00:01:45.599
kicked off his One Night at a
Time tour at the Lucas Oil Stadium in

21
00:01:45.599 --> 00:01:49.400
Indianapolis Thursday. As Wallin took a
break on night two to thank the crowd

22
00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:53.959
for showing up to support him,
he did a little bragging, saying,

23
00:01:53.719 --> 00:01:59.040
this is single most attended concert in
the history of this building and were the

24
00:01:59.079 --> 00:02:01.560
first to do it for two two
nights in a row. He continued with

25
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:07.719
a good natured I'm gonna say that
until Taylor Swift comes to town. However,

26
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:10.520
the crowd was not amused, as
they booed at the mention of Swift.

27
00:02:12.120 --> 00:02:15.520
Some in the audience cheered, but
the majority began to boo. The

28
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:21.039
sentiment loudly shouting down any opposite opinions. Walin tried to appease the crowd and

29
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:24.120
show there was no animosity towards Swift, saying we ain't got to boo,

30
00:02:24.479 --> 00:02:30.159
we ain't got to boo, but
the audience continued to express their displeasure despite

31
00:02:30.240 --> 00:02:35.960
the awkward moment. It seems Walin
is actually a fan of Swift himself,

32
00:02:36.240 --> 00:02:39.319
as evidenced by a video from one
of his twenty twenty two concerts where he

33
00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:46.599
and the crowd sang along to her
hit All Too Well. In other exciting

34
00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:51.520
news, Taylor Swift has released five
Apple Music playlists centered around the theme of

35
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:54.479
heartbreak, just in time for the
release of her upcoming album, The Tortured

36
00:02:54.479 --> 00:02:59.840
Poets Department. The playlists, which
include a mix of her own past songs

37
00:03:00.120 --> 00:03:05.479
carefully curated selections, are based on
Elizabeth Kopler Ross's famous five Stages of grief,

38
00:03:05.800 --> 00:03:10.439
denial, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. Each playlist is

39
00:03:10.439 --> 00:03:15.240
accompanied by a personal message from Swift, sharing insights into the emotional journey of

40
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:21.199
a breakup. For example, in
the introduction to the Denial playlist, titled

41
00:03:21.280 --> 00:03:24.159
I Love You It's Ruining My Life, she says, this is a list

42
00:03:24.159 --> 00:03:29.319
of songs about getting so caught up
in the idea of something that you have

43
00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:34.400
a hard time seeing the red flags, possibly resulting in moments of denial and

44
00:03:34.439 --> 00:03:38.159
maybe a little bit of delusion.
The playlists feature a mix of her classic

45
00:03:38.240 --> 00:03:44.080
hits and newer tracks such as Bad
Blood, We Are Never Getting Back Together,

46
00:03:44.599 --> 00:03:49.080
Lavender Hayes, and Snow on the
Beach. Fans are speculating that the

47
00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:53.319
new album, set to drop on
April nineteenth, may be about the end

48
00:03:53.360 --> 00:03:58.479
of her six year relationship with actor
Joe Alwyn, although Swift boasts a formidable

49
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:03.000
a list dating history, ranging from
John Mayer and Calvin Harris to Jake Gillenhall

50
00:04:03.080 --> 00:04:09.199
and Tom Hittleston, among many others. Speaking of Swift's music, her recent

51
00:04:09.240 --> 00:04:14.199
re recording of Style has surprisingly climbed
to a new peak on the Billboard Adult

52
00:04:14.199 --> 00:04:19.279
Contemporary chart. Style Taylor's version reappears
at number twenty nine, marking its highest

53
00:04:19.279 --> 00:04:24.000
position yet, although it still ranks
as her lowest charting placement and her tune

54
00:04:24.000 --> 00:04:27.879
with the fewest number of frames on
the list, with just two so far.

55
00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:31.519
The original version of the song,
released nearly a decade ago in twenty

56
00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:36.240
fifteen, reached number one on the
same chart and ranks as one of Swift's

57
00:04:36.399 --> 00:04:42.600
nine chart toppers and her nineteen career
top tens. The renewed interest in the

58
00:04:42.639 --> 00:04:47.040
track comes as Swift's nineteen eighty nine
Taylor's Version album, released in late twenty

59
00:04:47.079 --> 00:04:51.360
twenty three, continues to dominate the
charts, having peaked at number one on

60
00:04:51.399 --> 00:04:57.160
the Billboard two hundred and moving more
than one point six million equivalent units in

61
00:04:57.199 --> 00:05:12.120
its first frame. More in a
Moment. Lastly, swifties are swooning over

62
00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:17.720
a fan made compilation video showcasing Travis
Kelcey's unwavering support and admiration for his girlfriend.

63
00:05:18.079 --> 00:05:23.120
The clips, synced to Swift's reputation
track call It What You Want,

64
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:29.360
feature the NFL star laughing off relationship
conspiracy theories, calling the suggestions crazy,

65
00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:33.399
and gushing over their personal life,
together with soundbites like the Biggest and the

66
00:05:33.439 --> 00:05:40.319
Best Thing Possible. Fans flooded the
comments with praise, calling the compilation perfection

67
00:05:40.720 --> 00:05:46.480
and complimenting the creator for the masterpiece. One fan observed he really loves her,

68
00:05:46.800 --> 00:05:51.800
while another was touched by the way
Trav loves praising tailor countless Others quoted

69
00:05:51.839 --> 00:05:58.319
the post with their commentary with Swiftie's
loving how similar Kelsey is to the fandom.

70
00:05:59.040 --> 00:06:02.040
He's so one of us, one
said, while another wrote, at

71
00:06:02.040 --> 00:06:05.360
the end of the day, He's
just a swifty like rest of us.

72
00:06:05.959 --> 00:06:12.639
Someone else suggested he would run swifty
Twitter like the Navy, and another imagined

73
00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:15.800
what it would be like to show
up to a Tay Warrior competition and your

74
00:06:15.839 --> 00:06:20.240
opponent is Travis. Fans also lauded
Kelsey for how emotionally intelligent he is,

75
00:06:20.800 --> 00:06:25.959
something the Internet gives full credit for
to his parents, Ed and Donna.

76
00:06:27.439 --> 00:06:31.319
