We know you hate commercials as much as we do,

2
00:00:02.720 --> 00:00:05.240

Cala Rocashock Media.

8
00:00:25.800 --> 00:00:29.879
Welcome to Taylor Swift Today. I'm your host, and Swifties,

9
00:00:30.239 --> 00:00:32.960
brace yourselves for some shocking news that's shaking up the

10
00:00:32.960 --> 00:00:36.399
Aras tour. In a stunning turn of events, Taylor's three

11
00:00:36.439 --> 00:00:39.320
concerts in Vienna, Austria have been canceled due to a

12
00:00:39.359 --> 00:00:42.079
serious security threat. I know, I know, I'm clutching my

13
00:00:42.159 --> 00:00:45.759
pearls too. Austrian authorities announced on Wednesday that they arrested

14
00:00:45.840 --> 00:00:48.759
two suspects in connection with plans for an alleged attack

15
00:00:48.799 --> 00:00:49.679
in the Vienna region.

16
00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:51.719
Talk about a cruel summer right.

17
00:00:52.200 --> 00:00:55.880
Veracuta Music, the promoter for Taylor's Austrian shows, dropped this

18
00:00:56.000 --> 00:00:57.520
bombshell on social media.

19
00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:00.840
With confirmation from government officials of a planned.

20
00:01:00.640 --> 00:01:04.280
Terrorist attack at Ernst Hoppel Stadium, we have no choice

21
00:01:04.319 --> 00:01:07.560
but to cancel the three scheduled shows for everyone's safety.

22
00:01:07.840 --> 00:01:10.159
I mean, can you imagine.

23
00:01:09.599 --> 00:01:12.480
It's like someone's trying to write their own villainous version

24
00:01:12.599 --> 00:01:16.439
of bad Blood. The police revealed that one of the suspects,

25
00:01:16.760 --> 00:01:19.159
a nineteen year old Austrian citizen, is believed to be

26
00:01:19.159 --> 00:01:22.640
a sympathizer of the Islamic State. They even found chemical

27
00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:25.879
substances at the suspects home. It's like a real life

28
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:28.840
thriller movie, except our girl, Taylor is at the center

29
00:01:28.920 --> 00:01:29.159
of it.

30
00:01:29.599 --> 00:01:29.760
Now.

31
00:01:29.760 --> 00:01:31.959
I know we're all devastated about missing out on three

32
00:01:32.040 --> 00:01:36.359
nights of Taylor Magic, but remember, Swifty's safety comes first.

33
00:01:37.000 --> 00:01:39.799
Taylor's team hasn't commented yet, but I'm sure she's as

34
00:01:39.840 --> 00:01:43.159
heartbroken as we are. On the bright side, all tickets

35
00:01:43.159 --> 00:01:46.760
will be automatically refunded within the next ten business days,

36
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:49.719
so at least our wallets won't be singing all too

37
00:01:49.799 --> 00:01:53.519
well sad version. This is a developing story, and we'll

38
00:01:53.599 --> 00:01:56.239
keep you updated as we learn more. In the meantime,

39
00:01:56.400 --> 00:01:58.959
let's send all our love and support to Taylor and

40
00:01:59.000 --> 00:02:02.879
her team. Remember, Swifti's were stronger together and not even

41
00:02:02.959 --> 00:02:07.519
this can shake our love for Taylor. Now, hold on

42
00:02:07.519 --> 00:02:10.520
to your friendship bracelets, because we've got some political intrigue,

43
00:02:11.639 --> 00:02:14.240
some eagle eyed fans spotted what they thought was Vice

44
00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:18.080
President Kamala Harris's silhouette in one of Taylor's recent Instagram

45
00:02:18.120 --> 00:02:21.400
posts from her Warsaw shows. Turns out it was just

46
00:02:21.479 --> 00:02:24.319
one of her backup singers. But can you imagine the

47
00:02:24.360 --> 00:02:27.360
power if Taylor did endorse Harris? It would be like

48
00:02:27.520 --> 00:02:30.759
Long Live come to life. Remember when Taylor endorsed Biden

49
00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:33.800
and Harris Back in twenty twenty, she told v magazine,

50
00:02:33.960 --> 00:02:36.599
I will proudly vote for Joe Biden and Kamala Harris

51
00:02:36.639 --> 00:02:40.039
in this year's presidential election. Who knows what she'll do

52
00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:43.439
this time around. One thing's for sure. When Taylor speaks

53
00:02:43.599 --> 00:02:47.120
swifties listen, it's like she has her own political style.

54
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:47.840
You know.

55
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:52.240
Speaking of style, Taylor's dropping some big news about her

56
00:02:52.280 --> 00:02:55.719
London shows. She's bringing in a different special guest for

57
00:02:55.800 --> 00:02:59.599
each of her five Wembley Stadium concerts, from Sophia Isella

58
00:02:59.680 --> 00:03:03.840
to It's like Taylor's creating her own mini festival. I

59
00:03:03.879 --> 00:03:06.159
don't know about you, but I'm already planning my outfit

60
00:03:06.240 --> 00:03:10.680
changes for each night, Taylor shared on her Instagram story.

61
00:03:11.080 --> 00:03:12.879
I asked them to play on this tour because I

62
00:03:12.960 --> 00:03:15.800
love their music and I think they'll absolutely smash it

63
00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:18.120
in Wembley Stadium. Go check out their music if you

64
00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:21.240
haven't already. It's gonna be a fun five nights, Five

65
00:03:21.319 --> 00:03:26.520
Nights of Taylor. It's like Christmas came early. In chart news,

66
00:03:26.680 --> 00:03:29.919
our queen is back on top. The Tortured Poets Department

67
00:03:29.960 --> 00:03:32.439
has reclaimed the number one spot on the Billboard two

68
00:03:32.520 --> 00:03:37.319
hundred for a thirteenth week. That's right, thirteen, Taylor's lucky number.

69
00:03:37.719 --> 00:03:40.639
It's like the universe is aligning just for her at

70
00:03:40.639 --> 00:03:43.719
this point. I wouldn't be surprised if Billboard just renamed

71
00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:48.120
the chart Taylor's Top two hundred. This latest achievement extends

72
00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:51.360
several of Taylor's all time records. It's posted the most

73
00:03:51.400 --> 00:03:54.400
weeks at number one of any Taylor album. Elvis Who

74
00:03:54.840 --> 00:03:56.960
the King might have left the building, but Queen Taylor

75
00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:59.599
is here to stay. Now, let's talk about Sabrina Carpenter.

76
00:04:00.120 --> 00:04:03.360
Remember when everyone freaked out about her skims campaign. Well,

77
00:04:03.479 --> 00:04:07.520
Sabrina's setting the record straight. She told Variety the posts

78
00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:11.199
about me having to ask for her permission. No, she's

79
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:13.439
one of my best best friends and we grab dinner

80
00:04:13.520 --> 00:04:15.199
or text and catch up like you would with your

81
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:19.480
best friend. Honestly, can you imagine being in that group chat.

82
00:04:19.879 --> 00:04:23.959
I'd probably faint from excitement. Sabrina also shared some sweet

83
00:04:23.959 --> 00:04:27.759
insights into her friendship with Taylor. She said, it's so

84
00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:30.160
cool for me to get a perspective on this whole

85
00:04:30.199 --> 00:04:33.199
process from her, in the community of artists that I

86
00:04:33.240 --> 00:04:36.600
feel I'm close to, to get advice from them on

87
00:04:36.639 --> 00:04:39.800
stuff that you can't just ask the internet. Ah, It's

88
00:04:39.800 --> 00:04:43.199
like Taylor's running her own little mentorship program. Where do

89
00:04:43.240 --> 00:04:47.120
I sign up? In Award show news, Taylor's leading the

90
00:04:47.120 --> 00:04:52.040
pack with ten VMA nominations, eight for Fortnite alone. I

91
00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:56.319
swear Taylor collects VMA nominations like I collect her album variants,

92
00:04:56.319 --> 00:04:59.879
obsessively and with great joy. She's up for Artists of

93
00:05:00.079 --> 00:05:02.800
the Year, Best Pop, and pretty much every other category

94
00:05:02.839 --> 00:05:05.079
they could think of. At this rate, they might as

95
00:05:05.120 --> 00:05:09.639
well rename it the Taylor Swift Video Music Awards. More

96
00:05:09.680 --> 00:05:21.800
in a moment, and finally, let's check in on Travis.

97
00:05:22.319 --> 00:05:25.600
Apparently he's been busy making his Kansas City mansion feel

98
00:05:25.639 --> 00:05:28.839
like home for Taylor. He's even upgraded the kitchen because

99
00:05:28.879 --> 00:05:31.279
she loves to cook for him and their friends. Is

100
00:05:31.319 --> 00:05:34.240
anyone else picturing Taylor in an apron whipping up some

101
00:05:34.279 --> 00:05:36.040
cookies while humming, shake it off?

102
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:37.680
Just me okay?

103
00:05:37.959 --> 00:05:40.680
A source told Life and Style she can't wait to

104
00:05:40.759 --> 00:05:43.800
root Travis on at Kansas City Chief's home games and

105
00:05:43.920 --> 00:05:46.759
really focus on him without having one foot out the door.

106
00:05:47.160 --> 00:05:48.839
He has done what he can to make his house

107
00:05:48.879 --> 00:05:51.920
feel like home to her, even upgrading the kitchen because

108
00:05:51.959 --> 00:05:54.519
she loves to cook for him and their friends. And

109
00:05:54.600 --> 00:05:58.319
get this, Travis has actually talked about Taylor's cooking before.

110
00:05:59.079 --> 00:06:01.920
At a press conference earlier this year, he said, Taylor

111
00:06:01.959 --> 00:06:06.480
makes a great poptart and cinnamon roll. Poptart cinnamon roll.

112
00:06:06.920 --> 00:06:09.800
Is there anything this woman can't do? I'm half expecting

113
00:06:09.839 --> 00:06:13.000
her to release a cookbook next Baking in the Deep?

114
00:06:13.199 --> 00:06:13.639
Anyone?

115
00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:17.800
The source also added, friends say this downtime is exactly

116
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:19.920
what Taylor needs and won't be surprised if it leads

117
00:06:20.000 --> 00:06:20.600
up to a wedding.

118
00:06:21.399 --> 00:06:21.600
Now.

119
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:24.560
I'm not saying we should start planning our swifty wedding outfits,

120
00:06:24.600 --> 00:06:26.279
but I'm not saying that either.

121
00:06:27.000 --> 00:06:29.000
Can you imagine a Taylor Swift wedding?

122
00:06:29.319 --> 00:06:32.399
The vows would probably be more poetic than anything Shakespeare

123
00:06:32.439 --> 00:06:36.279
ever wrote. Speaking of poetry, let's not forget that Taylor's

124
00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:40.079
been giving us glimpses into her songwriting process. She recently

125
00:06:40.120 --> 00:06:43.120
released first draft bone memo versions of some tracks from

126
00:06:43.240 --> 00:06:46.759
the Tortured Poet's Department. It's like getting a peek into

127
00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:50.279
Taylor's brain, and let me tell you, it's a magical place.

128
00:06:51.759 --> 00:06:54.040
As we wrap up today's news, I can't help but

129
00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:56.959
feel overwhelmed by the impact Taylor has on all of us.

130
00:06:57.319 --> 00:07:00.639
Whether she's selling out stadiums, topping charts, or or just

131
00:07:00.680 --> 00:07:04.040
being an amazing friend. She continually proves why she's not

132
00:07:04.120 --> 00:07:08.199
just a singer, but a cultural icon. And that's it

133
00:07:08.279 --> 00:07:11.040
for today's news. By the way, we now have some

134
