00:00:08.679 --> 00:00:12.320
Hey Swifties, Welcome back to Taylor Swift Today. I'm your host, Ali,

3
00:00:12.439 --> 00:00:15.039
and we have so much Taylor news to cover this week,

4
00:00:15.439 --> 00:00:19.359
from Travis's NFL struggles, to Taylor's amazing charity work, and

5
00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:23.079
even some presidential news that affects concert tickets. Let's dive

6
00:00:23.160 --> 00:00:27.199
right in. First up, let's talk about what's been happening

7
00:00:27.239 --> 00:00:30.160
with Travis. There's been a bit of drama online after

8
00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:34.159
reports surfaced claiming Travis believes his newfound fame from dating

9
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:37.479
Taylor might have affected his performance on the field last season.

10
00:00:37.960 --> 00:00:40.600
According to US Weekly, Travis feels.

11
00:00:40.399 --> 00:00:43.039
He might have taken his eye off the ball while

12
00:00:43.039 --> 00:00:46.240
getting involved in all those commercials, TV shows, and movie

13
00:00:46.240 --> 00:00:49.119
cameos that came his way after he started dating Taylor.

14
00:00:49.560 --> 00:00:52.759
As you probably know, Travis didn't have his best statistical

15
00:00:52.799 --> 00:00:55.640
season and the Chiefs had that tough Super Bowl loss

16
00:00:55.679 --> 00:00:58.880
to the Eagles. Some fans online have been pretty harsh

17
00:00:59.079 --> 00:01:02.159
with comments like everyone could see he focused more on

18
00:01:02.200 --> 00:01:05.640
being a star than being in best form ouch. But

19
00:01:05.760 --> 00:01:08.239
others are defending him and saying it's not fair to

20
00:01:08.239 --> 00:01:11.280
blame Taylor for his performance issues. What we do know

21
00:01:11.359 --> 00:01:14.280
for sure is that both Taylor and Travis are now

22
00:01:14.359 --> 00:01:18.159
enjoying some much needed downtime. Another source told US Weekly

23
00:01:18.239 --> 00:01:21.319
that so much attention on their relationship is not the

24
00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:23.840
best thing, and that Travis wants to have a good

25
00:01:23.840 --> 00:01:26.560
season and not have the focus be on his relationship

26
00:01:26.560 --> 00:01:30.319
with Taylor. They're reportedly spending their time either watching movies,

27
00:01:30.519 --> 00:01:34.120
working out together, or visiting family. A source called it

28
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:37.000
their dream to just do nothing for a while after

29
00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:37.840
working so hard.

30
00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:39.239
I totally get that.

31
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:44.879
In some absolutely heartwarming Kelsey family news, Taylor just showed

32
00:01:44.879 --> 00:01:48.159
her support for her boyfriend's sister in law, Kylie Kelsey.

33
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:50.959
Jason's wife, announced that she gave birth.

34
00:01:50.760 --> 00:01:55.200
To their fourth daughter, Finley, Finn and Kelsey on March thirtieth.

35
00:01:55.680 --> 00:01:59.040
Taylor liked Kylie's Instagram post announcing the baby's arrival.

36
00:01:59.480 --> 00:02:01.200
It's such a sweet, subtle.

37
00:02:00.920 --> 00:02:04.120
Way of showing support for the growing Kelsey family. This

38
00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:08.439
is Jason and Kylie's fourth daughter, joining big sisters Wyatt, Elliott,

39
00:02:08.439 --> 00:02:12.719
and Bennett. Taylor also liked Kylie's pregnancy announcement back in November,

40
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:17.599
so she's been supporting the family all along. Now let's

41
00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:20.479
talk about something that makes me love Taylor even more.

42
00:02:20.879 --> 00:02:24.360
Ellen Pompeo, who you might know from Grey's Anatomy, recently

43
00:02:24.400 --> 00:02:28.520
shared the most incredible story about Taylor's generosity. Ellen made

44
00:02:28.560 --> 00:02:31.680
a cameo in Taylor's Bad Blood music video ten years ago.

45
00:02:32.039 --> 00:02:33.439
Can you believe it's been that long?

46
00:02:33.800 --> 00:02:36.840
And she revealed on the Jennifer Hudson Show that despite

47
00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:40.080
only knowing Ellen for about twenty minutes, Taylor wrote her

48
00:02:40.400 --> 00:02:44.120
the biggest check for Children's Hospital Los Angeles without hesitation.

49
00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:47.280
Ellen explained that she and her husband volunteer with a

50
00:02:47.319 --> 00:02:50.759
program at the hospital that records parents singing nursery rhymes

51
00:02:50.800 --> 00:02:53.080
or telling stories to their babies in the nikki when

52
00:02:53.120 --> 00:02:56.159
they can't be there. She got the HUTSPA to ask

53
00:02:56.199 --> 00:03:00.280
Taylor for a donation, and Taylor immediately wrote a huge check.

54
00:03:00.759 --> 00:03:01.800
How amazing is that?

55
00:03:02.360 --> 00:03:04.759
Ellen also mentioned that Taylor had been a fan of

56
00:03:04.759 --> 00:03:08.240
Gray's Anatomy for years before they met. Remember that Taylor

57
00:03:08.319 --> 00:03:10.919
even named one of her cat's Meredith Gray, after Ellen's

58
00:03:11.000 --> 00:03:15.319
character In some travel news that affects celebrities like Taylor.

59
00:03:15.680 --> 00:03:19.439
The Federal Aviation Administration just implemented a new privacy rule

60
00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:22.120
that would make it harder for people to track private jets.

61
00:03:22.439 --> 00:03:25.360
This comes after Taylor's legal team sent cease and desist

62
00:03:25.439 --> 00:03:28.719
letters to that college student Jack Sweeney, who's been tracking

63
00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:32.080
her flights. Now, private aircraft owners can request to keep

64
00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:35.439
their registration information private, which would make it much more

65
00:03:35.479 --> 00:03:39.120
difficult for flight tracking services to follow Taylor's movements. This

66
00:03:39.240 --> 00:03:41.639
is probably a relief for her after that controversy a

67
00:03:41.639 --> 00:03:45.080
few weeks ago, when an unverified video supposedly showed her

68
00:03:45.120 --> 00:03:48.199
taking a super short flight from LA to Santa Monica.

69
00:03:49.599 --> 00:03:52.680
In major political news that actually relates to concert tickets,

70
00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:56.080
President Trump just signed an executive order to stop price

71
00:03:56.159 --> 00:03:57.960
gouging at music concerts.

72
00:03:58.319 --> 00:04:00.240
The White House said the live concert.

73
00:03:59.919 --> 00:04:04.000
Is industry is being exploited by unscrupulous middlemen who impose

74
00:04:04.080 --> 00:04:07.680
egregious fees on fans with no benefit to artists. The

75
00:04:07.840 --> 00:04:10.800
order directs officials to make sure ticket sellers comply with

76
00:04:10.919 --> 00:04:14.879
tax rules and that there's price transparency at all stages

77
00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:18.319
of the ticket purchase process. This is pretty interesting because

78
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:21.680
it creates an unusual alliance with Taylor, who was furious

79
00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:25.040
at how Ticketmaster handled sales for her Eiras tour back

80
00:04:25.040 --> 00:04:28.319
in twenty twenty two. Remember when their website crashed, and

81
00:04:28.360 --> 00:04:30.160
tickets meant for fans ended up on.

82
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:31.800
Resale sites at crazy prices.

83
00:04:32.279 --> 00:04:35.480
That whole mess led to congressional hearings and calls to

84
00:04:35.480 --> 00:04:39.360
break up Ticketmaster's effective monopoly. So even though Taylor and

85
00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:42.759
Trump aren't exactly known for being on the same page politically,

86
00:04:43.120 --> 00:04:46.959
they apparently agree on this concert ticket issue.

87
00:04:47.240 --> 00:04:47.959
More in a moment.

88
00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:58.399
In fun Taylor Swift tourism news, there's now an official

89
00:04:58.800 --> 00:05:02.399
Taylor Swift's New York walking tour. For sixty six dollars

90
00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:06.040
per person, you can visit thirteen tailor related spots around

91
00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:10.199
Manhattan's West Village and Soho neighborhoods. The tour includes places

92
00:05:10.240 --> 00:05:13.680
where Taylor has been seen, locations mentioned in her lyrics,

93
00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:17.240
and spots like the Housing Works bookstore cafe where she

94
00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:20.560
filmed part of All Too Well, the short film. There

95
00:05:20.560 --> 00:05:24.319
are even pink footprints mark Taylor stood here at one location.

96
00:05:24.920 --> 00:05:28.720
The tour guides are super dedicated Swifties with impressive Taylor knowledge.

97
00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:32.680
One guide mentioned that she talks about Taylor enough for free,

98
00:05:32.920 --> 00:05:34.680
might as well see if I can make some money.

99
00:05:35.040 --> 00:05:39.600
I totally respect the hustle and finally, let me clear

100
00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:42.279
up a little bit of social media confusion. There was

101
00:05:42.319 --> 00:05:44.959
a viral tweet claiming Apple was going to release a

102
00:05:44.959 --> 00:05:48.040
set of pop star emojis, including one for Taylor, in

103
00:05:48.120 --> 00:05:49.519
the next iOS update.

104
00:05:49.959 --> 00:05:52.160
But it turns out this was completely fake.

105
00:05:52.720 --> 00:05:55.240
The post came from a parody account called drop Pop,

106
00:05:55.600 --> 00:05:58.240
and people were actually kind of relieved once they realized

107
00:05:58.279 --> 00:06:01.680
it wasn't real because the emotion g designs were pretty questionable.

108
00:06:02.079 --> 00:06:05.199
The Taylor emoji apparently had short hair and blue eyes,

109
00:06:05.519 --> 00:06:09.079
which isn't even accurate. Just so you know, the Unicode Consortium,

110
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:12.480
the folks who oversee emoji, doesn't approve emojis based on

111
00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:16.000
living people, so we won't be getting Taylor emoji anytime soon.

112
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:19.560
Sorry to disappoint, and that's all for today's episode of

113
00:06:19.639 --> 00:06:22.519
Taylor Swift Today. What do you think about Travis taking

114
00:06:22.560 --> 00:06:25.120
