00:00:34.159 --> 00:00:38.079
ear as tour. The ladies also

9
00:00:44.039 --> 00:00:47.600
the night, wearing a black mini

The singer finalized the look with a
plaid gray coat and a black purse.

11
00:00:52.000 --> 00:00:56.520
She accentuated her pout with her red

12
00:00:56.600 --> 00:01:00.719
gold necklace. Meanwhile, Gowig wore
a flowing blacks with matching loafers. She

13
00:01:00.799 --> 00:01:06.079
teamed the look with a stylish light
pink Gucci crossbody bag. The women had

14
00:01:06.120 --> 00:01:10.719
much to talk about over dinner following
the success of Swift's ongoing tour and Gerwig's

15
00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:14.519
Barbie's Cinema hit. While some fans
have claimed that the singer has stopped the

16
00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:19.239
US from falling into recession after the
Ears tour was projected to generate close to

17
00:01:19.480 --> 00:01:25.879
five billion dollars in consumer spending,
Travis Kelsey is applauding this game day strategy.

18
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:30.480
According to e amid rumors that the
Kansas City Chiefs player is dating Taylor,

19
00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:34.680
his NFL family, including commentator rich
Eisen, decided to have some fun

20
00:01:34.799 --> 00:01:40.239
with the romance speculation. During Sunday's
broadcast of NFL Game Day Morning, Richard

21
00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:45.920
dropped several t Swift puns While discussing
Travis's returned to the field, even though

22
00:01:45.959 --> 00:01:49.599
that bone bruise and the injury one
would think is delicate, rich began referencing

23
00:01:49.599 --> 00:01:55.120
Taylor's track he's been able to shake
it off. While Travis was able to

24
00:01:55.120 --> 00:01:59.400
play in Sunday's game against Jacksonville.
Rich noted that the tight end previously left

25
00:01:59.400 --> 00:02:04.480
a space in his team's lineup while
out with his knee injury earlier this month,

26
00:02:04.920 --> 00:02:07.920
but I think he returns today,
he continued, and proves to be

27
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:13.120
the anti hero. After Rich posted
a mashup of his playful puns to Instagram,

28
00:02:13.319 --> 00:02:15.960
Travis couldn't help but applaud his efforts, commenting well played, Rich,

29
00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:22.319
well played, along with clapping and
laughing emojis, And as it turns out,

30
00:02:22.319 --> 00:02:24.639
Travis did play a bit of an
anti hero role in the game,

31
00:02:24.759 --> 00:02:30.039
scoring a touchdown for his team,
who went on to defeat the Jaguar seventeen

32
00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:34.599
nine. In fact, after Travis's
court teammate Patrick Mahomes passed in the third

33
00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:39.599
quarter, increasing Kansas City's lead.
NFL announcer Ian Eagle also referenced Taylor's song,

34
00:02:39.759 --> 00:02:45.520
saying Travis had found a playing space
for the score. In just under

35
00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:49.240
one month, Taylor Swift The Era's
Tour will hit theaters across North America.

36
00:02:49.639 --> 00:02:53.960
The film, which will showcase Swift's
massively successful eras Tour, is expected to

37
00:02:53.960 --> 00:02:59.520
be a box office smash. In
fact, predictions already placed an opening weekend

38
00:02:59.599 --> 00:03:02.439
pull at one hundred million dollars or
more, but that might not be the

39
00:03:02.520 --> 00:03:07.120
end of the rewards coming for her
movie. This from Forbes, Taylor Swift

40
00:03:07.199 --> 00:03:13.000
The Era's tour may earn the star
of the picture the Best Music Film Grammy.

41
00:03:13.120 --> 00:03:15.280
The superstar has already wanted a dozen
Grammys, but she's never competed in

42
00:03:15.280 --> 00:03:20.240
this specific field, and her latest
movie may change that, though she'll have

43
00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:23.719
to wait awhile before earning that nomination. Best Music Film was introduced in the

44
00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:30.199
eighties by the Academy to honor artistic
achievement, technical proficiency, and overall excellence

45
00:03:30.240 --> 00:03:35.879
in the recording industry, without regard
to album sales or chart position. In

46
00:03:35.960 --> 00:03:38.159
the past, the prize has gone
to a mix of concert films and documentaries

47
00:03:38.199 --> 00:03:43.759
about music and musicians, and Taylor
Swift. The Era's Tour should be considered

48
00:03:43.759 --> 00:03:47.520
a front runner when it's actually eligible
back with more Taylor in just a moment.

49
00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:57.599
Taylor is being used as punishment for
Universal Studio guests looking for late night

50
00:03:57.719 --> 00:04:01.960
scares past business hours, as heard
in a closing time message from the park

51
00:04:02.800 --> 00:04:09.080
per TMZ. The seemingly recorded message
that was blasted over the intercom during Sunday

52
00:04:09.159 --> 00:04:13.800
nights Halloween Horror Nights, where folks
traverse the massive theme park to hit haunted

53
00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:16.839
mazes and rides into the wee hours
of the morning. Horror Nights officially shuts

54
00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:20.959
down at two am, and based
on this YouTube streamers video, it sounds

55
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:27.000
like stragglers were hit with a warning
for sticking around, namely loud swifty tunes.

56
00:04:27.720 --> 00:04:30.720
Here's what a man could be heard
saying, the rides are closed,

57
00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:33.519
closed, There is no reason to
stay here any longer. You don't have

58
00:04:33.560 --> 00:04:36.560
to go home, but you can't
stay here. We only have seven hours

59
00:04:36.560 --> 00:04:40.600
to get the park ready for tomorrow. Hit the bricks, take a hike,

60
00:04:40.680 --> 00:04:44.439
gather your belongings and your drunk friends
and go. Or we start playing

61
00:04:44.480 --> 00:04:47.839
Taylor Swift at full volume. He
delivers it in a humorous way, so

62
00:04:47.839 --> 00:04:51.240
there's obviously a gag. The interesting
part is that this really sounds like a

63
00:04:51.319 --> 00:04:56.279
recording and not just an employee riffing
off the cuff. If true, even

64
00:04:56.319 --> 00:05:00.040
funnier. Of course, the Horror
Nights people might have underestimated their custo and

65
00:05:00.160 --> 00:05:03.079
as Taylor is super popular these days
and a lot of people actually like her

66
00:05:03.199 --> 00:05:06.800
music, so instead of this being
taken as a threat, some people might

67
00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:11.279
just take it as a welcome dance
party. And then you have it.
