00:00:11.880 --> 00:00:14.679
our regular weekly episode, and while it's been a quieter

00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:18.519
week in taylor Land, We've got some fascinating developments including

5
00:00:18.559 --> 00:00:21.800
Taylor secretly filming in London, her net worth hitting two

6
00:00:21.800 --> 00:00:26.800
point one billion dollars, becoming Cambridge Dictionary's inspiration, and unfortunately

7
00:00:27.199 --> 00:00:31.039
leading an AI deep fake abuse. Plus George Kittle's amazing

8
00:00:31.160 --> 00:00:33.399
TEU stories and Thanksgiving plans.

9
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:36.719
Let's dive into everything breaking news.

10
00:00:37.039 --> 00:00:39.960
Taylor is reportedly flying to the UK for a top

11
00:00:40.079 --> 00:00:43.960
secret Elizabeth Taylor music video shoot. According to the Sun,

12
00:00:44.200 --> 00:00:47.640
a source revealed Taylor is super excited to be back

13
00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:50.719
in London filming for her new music video. Taylor has

14
00:00:50.840 --> 00:00:53.359
always written about her love for London and the video

15
00:00:53.399 --> 00:00:55.520
will capture different locations around the city.

16
00:00:55.960 --> 00:00:58.960
This is perfect because Elizabeth Taylor.

17
00:00:58.719 --> 00:01:02.240
Was born in Hampstead, North London in nineteen thirty two.

18
00:01:02.320 --> 00:01:04.400
There's even a plaque on her childhood home.

19
00:01:04.840 --> 00:01:08.200
The Hollywood icon, who died in twenty eleven at seventy nine,

20
00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:11.319
was the pinnacle of old Hollywood glamour that Taylor portrayed

21
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:14.959
in Fate of Ophelia, which remains the only music video.

22
00:01:14.760 --> 00:01:16.640
From the Life of a Showgirl so far.

23
00:01:17.359 --> 00:01:21.079
Taylor explained at the official release party how Elizabeth Taylor

24
00:01:21.120 --> 00:01:26.640
inspired the lyrics. It has got to do with fame, attention, love, notoriety,

25
00:01:26.879 --> 00:01:31.200
anxiety that this isn't going to be forever and how heartbroken.

26
00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:31.120
Would you be?

27
00:01:31.200 --> 00:01:33.840
Then? I wanted to tell a story that referenced some

28
00:01:33.920 --> 00:01:36.120
of the cool things about her life, but that are

29
00:01:36.159 --> 00:01:37.319
also parallel to mine.

30
00:01:37.799 --> 00:01:40.680
She added. I use details from her life.

31
00:01:40.560 --> 00:01:42.599
But the feelings of what it kind of conveys are

32
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:47.560
things I've absolutely experienced time and time again. London locations

33
00:01:47.599 --> 00:01:50.400
would be the perfect tribute to this British Hollywood legend.

34
00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:53.599
We can't wait to see what iconic spots she chooses.

35
00:01:55.079 --> 00:01:58.400
George Kittle just shared the sweetest stories about Taylor at

36
00:01:58.439 --> 00:02:02.319
tid End University the Mike Golic Show Thursday. He declared

37
00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:05.719
Taylor Swift is cooler than you actually think she is.

38
00:02:06.359 --> 00:02:10.039
He admitted being nervous because she's really really famous, but

39
00:02:10.159 --> 00:02:12.919
said she couldn't be a nicer, more down to earth person.

40
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:15.879
She could not have been kinder, more genuine.

41
00:02:16.199 --> 00:02:18.719
She had like an hour conversation with my mom and

42
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:21.280
my mother in law, just talking to them, being.

43
00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:21.960
So nice to them.

44
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:25.120
Can you imagine your mom chatting with Taylor for an hour.

45
00:02:25.719 --> 00:02:28.199
But here's the best part. George got to live his

46
00:02:28.280 --> 00:02:31.879
dream singing Love Story with Taylor. I'm at a bar

47
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:34.439
on Broadway in Nashville in a back corner. I have

48
00:02:34.520 --> 00:02:36.840
two drinks in my hand. One is for my wife

49
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:39.520
and one is for Taylor. As I'm handing her the drink,

50
00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:43.120
Love Story comes on and it's actually my favorite Taylor

51
00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:46.159
Swift song. I know every single word and I'm going

52
00:02:46.199 --> 00:02:48.360
to sing the hell out of this song, and she

53
00:02:48.520 --> 00:02:49.319
just went in it with me.

54
00:02:49.919 --> 00:02:50.520
He gushed.

55
00:02:51.000 --> 00:02:53.759
I was just so appreciative because that was the moment

56
00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:57.080
that I will never forget. It'll never happen again. I

57
00:02:57.159 --> 00:03:00.360
was living out so many dreams right there. It was incredible.

58
00:03:00.680 --> 00:03:03.360
I had so much fun. Taylor even put on a

59
00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:05.520
surprise performance at TEU.

60
00:03:05.400 --> 00:03:07.479
That absolutely brought the house down.

61
00:03:09.039 --> 00:03:12.599
Now for some mind blowing financial news, Bloomberg updated their

62
00:03:12.719 --> 00:03:15.639
estimate and Taylor is now worth over two point one

63
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:19.800
billion dollars as of October twenty twenty five. That's up

64
00:03:19.879 --> 00:03:23.319
one billion dollars from just two years ago. Since twenty twenty,

65
00:03:23.360 --> 00:03:26.520
when she was worth only three hundred sixty five million dollars.

66
00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:30.960
She's released multiple albums, the Aras Tour, and concert films.

67
00:03:32.439 --> 00:03:36.479
Let's break down these insane numbers. Per the Recording Industry

68
00:03:36.520 --> 00:03:40.240
Association of America, she's earned one hundred thirty seven point

69
00:03:40.280 --> 00:03:44.000
five million dollars in digital singles and fifty one million

70
00:03:44.039 --> 00:03:47.400
dollars in album sales. The Life of a Showgirl sold

71
00:03:47.400 --> 00:03:50.759
two point seven million copies on release day alone. The

72
00:03:50.800 --> 00:03:54.039
official release party film earned thirty four million dollars in

73
00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:55.240
US ticket sales.

74
00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:56.759
The Eras Tour.

75
00:03:56.680 --> 00:04:00.240
Generated and estimated four point one billion dollars in REVENUEKW

76
00:04:00.520 --> 00:04:04.360
with Taylor personally earning ten to thirteen million dollars per show.

77
00:04:04.800 --> 00:04:07.960
The concert film earned two hundred sixty two million dollars

78
00:04:07.960 --> 00:04:11.000
at the box office, with Taylor's team pocketing sixty million

79
00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:15.240
dollars from advanced sales alone. Her reputation tour grows two

80
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:19.360
hundred sixty six point one million dollars domestically, the highest

81
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:23.000
at the time. Fun fact, the Tortured Poets Department was

82
00:04:23.040 --> 00:04:26.079
responsible for over eight percent of all album sales in

83
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:29.399
the US in its first two weeks, and even After

84
00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:32.800
spending three hundred sixty million dollars to buy back her masters,

85
00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:36.399
her net worth only increased because she now controls licensing.

86
00:04:37.040 --> 00:04:41.360
Taylor told Time what fuels a patriarchal society, money, flow

87
00:04:41.399 --> 00:04:44.480
of revenue, the economy. So actually, if we're going to

88
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:47.360
look at this in the most cynical way possible, feminine

89
00:04:47.399 --> 00:04:50.839
ideas becoming lucrative means that more female art will get made.

90
00:04:50.959 --> 00:04:56.680
It's extremely heartening. She's literally changing the game. Thanksgiving plans

91
00:04:56.680 --> 00:04:59.079
are under wraps, but we know Travis has an away

92
00:04:59.120 --> 00:05:02.839
game against the Cowboy at four thirty Thursday. Taylor hasn't

93
00:05:02.839 --> 00:05:06.199
attended away games this season due to security concerns. A

94
00:05:06.240 --> 00:05:10.399
source told US Weekly they're planning very low key, family

95
00:05:10.439 --> 00:05:15.480
centric celebrations without major travel. They'll reportedly split time with

96
00:05:15.560 --> 00:05:19.560
their respective families. The source added, Travis fits write in

97
00:05:19.600 --> 00:05:23.120
with her family, and Taylor adores Donna. They talk all

98
00:05:23.160 --> 00:05:25.639
the time. They make sure to see both sides as

99
00:05:25.680 --> 00:05:29.959
often as they can. They are super family oriented. Last Thanksgiving,

100
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:35.000
Taylor secretly hosted both families in Nashville. People reported it

101
00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:39.079
was the first Thanksgiving they celebrated together, and they had

102
00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:42.839
a great Thanksgiving together with their families. Travis also has

103
00:05:42.879 --> 00:05:47.000
a Christmas Day game, but it's at home. In cultural

104
00:05:47.040 --> 00:05:52.160
impact news, Cambridge Dictionary just announced parasocial as their twenty

105
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:55.480
twenty five word of the Year, directly inspired by Taylor

106
00:05:55.560 --> 00:05:59.720
and Travis. The definition involves a connection that someone feels

107
00:05:59.720 --> 00:06:02.480
between themselves and a famous person they do not know.

108
00:06:03.120 --> 00:06:04.639
Their announcement stated.

109
00:06:04.680 --> 00:06:08.399
When Taylor Swift and Travis Kelcey announced their engagement, many

110
00:06:08.439 --> 00:06:11.639
fans felt a deep connection to the singer and American footballer,

111
00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:15.000
even though most had never met them. Millions of fans

112
00:06:15.040 --> 00:06:19.399
related to Taylor Swift's confessional lyrics about dating, heartbreak, and desire.

113
00:06:19.959 --> 00:06:24.680
Chief editor Colin Macintosh said parisocial captures the twenty twenty

114
00:06:24.680 --> 00:06:28.079
five zeitgeist. It's a great example of how language changes.

115
00:06:28.560 --> 00:06:32.000
What was once a specialist academic term has become mainstream.

116
00:06:32.519 --> 00:06:35.399
The term dates back to nineteen fifty six, but has

117
00:06:35.439 --> 00:06:37.480
exploded in the Tailor Travis era.

118
00:06:39.199 --> 00:06:41.600
Unfortunately, there is also concerning news.

119
00:06:41.920 --> 00:06:45.360
McAfee reports Taylor is the biggest victim of AI deep

120
00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:49.959
fake abuse among global celebrities. Her worldwide popularity has contributed

121
00:06:49.959 --> 00:06:53.879
to scammers using her likeness for fake endorsements. Crypto investments

122
00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:57.560
and malware schemes. The survey revealed seventy two percent of

123
00:06:57.600 --> 00:07:01.480
Americans have seen fake celebrity endorsements, thirty nine percent have

124
00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:04.519
clicked on them, and one in ten lost money or data,

125
00:07:04.959 --> 00:07:08.759
averaging five hundred twenty five dollars per victim. Taylor tops

126
00:07:08.800 --> 00:07:13.120
the list, followed by Scarlett Johansson, Jenna or Tega, Sidney Sweeney,

127
00:07:13.279 --> 00:07:18.319
Sabrina Carpenter, and Tom Cruise. This is serious criminals clone

128
00:07:18.360 --> 00:07:22.079
celebrity voices and faces to promote scams. It shows the

129
00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:25.519
dark side of Taylor's massive influence and why security concerns

130
00:07:25.560 --> 00:07:27.399
are so real for her and Travis.

131
00:07:28.040 --> 00:07:29.040
More In a moment.

132
00:07:34.920 --> 00:07:38.720
Looking at this week, from secret London filming honoring Elizabeth

133
00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:42.480
Taylor's roots to becoming a billionaire changing the economics of

134
00:07:42.560 --> 00:07:46.720
feminine art, George Kittle's stories remind us how genuine Taylor

135
00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:51.360
is despite her stratospheric fame. The Cambridge Dictionary recognition shows

136
00:07:51.360 --> 00:07:55.720
her cultural impact literally changes language. The AI deep fake

137
00:07:55.759 --> 00:07:59.040
issue is concerning, but highlights why she needs such intense

138
00:07:59.079 --> 00:08:01.399
security and while we won't see much of them this

139
00:08:01.480 --> 00:08:04.399
Thanksgiving due to Travis's game and their low key approach

140
00:08:04.839 --> 00:08:08.439
knowing they're balancing both families shows their commitment to making

141
00:08:08.480 --> 00:08:12.399
this work. Taylor Swift Today now has an official Facebook community.
