0:03 Calarrugashock Media. Hey Swifties, Welcome back to Taylor Swift Today. It's Sunday, our regular weekly episode, and we have some wild developments including the White House using the Fate of Ophelia despite Trump's hate, Kayla Nicole throwing major Halloween shade, Taylor's perfect response to album critics, and she just made history with four weeks at number one, Plus NYC date nights, and Miles Teller's wedding predictions. Let's dive in the most shocking story this week. The official White House TikTok posted a patriotic video of President Trump and his administration soundtracked by the Fate of Ophelia. Yes, you heard that right.
0:47 The man who posted I Hate Taylor Swift in all caps is now using her number one hit. Remember Trump warned Taylor's music sales would suffer after she endorsed Kamala Harris, which was completely false. Also previously used a fake AI image making it look like she endorsed him, which prompted her endorsement statement, calling Harris a steady handed, gifted leader who brings calm and not chaos. When Variety asked for comment, a White House official replied We made this video because we knew fake news media brands like Variety would breathlessly amplify them. Congrats, you got played the audacity using her music while publicly hating her make it make sense. Trump's last public comment about Taylor was actually positive after the engagement announcement, calling Travis a great player and Taylor a terrific person, wishing them luck, but using her song for propaganda after everything, the hypocrisy is stunning. Now for the drama, Kayla Nicole's Halloween costume was a direct shot at Taylor and Travis. She dressed as Tony Braxton, recreating the two thousand video for he Wasn't Mad Enough for Me, with lyrics like did you know about us back then? Do you know I dumped your husband? Girlfriend? Fans immediately caught the shade. One commented the perfect costume plus song you are Her Real Housewives star Besoma Saint John added, you cleared the room. The level of petty slayage and pure decimation needs to be studied. This comes after Opalite seemingly
2:20 referenced Kayla being on her phone constantly. There's literally a resurfaced clip of Travis telling her at dinner. Oh my God, get off your phone. You're not even drinking your wine anymore. Can we go? Kayla fired back on Instagram Saturday with an America's Next Top Model clip where Eva Marcille says, I don't compare myself to other girls. I'm Eva. I'm no comparison to anyone else. She also posted and when God give you ball ball a clear clapback when trolls have criticized her for talking about Travis. She said, life handed me lemons and I made a lemon martini out of it, and that upsets people. She's also said she's done with athletes and wants to date executives or producers instead. Meanwhile, Taylor's been living her best life in NYC. Wednesday night, she and Travis had a rare date at Ralph Lauren's exclusive Polo bar. Taylor looked effortlessly chic in gray, wide legged pants, a classic black sweater, and Dior purse. Travis towered over her in baggy green trousers and a black sweatshirt.
3:25 The couple held hands as security escorted them through fans and photographers. They looked so in love. Nearly three months after getting engaged, Taylor's Sandy blonde hair was down with natural glam makeup no signature red lip this time. Monday night was girls' night with Gigi Hadid at Zero Bond. Taylor's massive engagement ring was on full display as she wore a black blazer coat over a pleated mini dress with snake print boots. Gigi looked equally cool in leather trousers and a soft black trench. Miles Teller made some wedding predictions at x CAD Savannah Film Festival. When asked if he and wife Kelly would attend, he admitted, I don't know if they'll make the guest list, despite being longtime friends. He called it one impressive wedding, but said he's just very happy for them. Miles starred in Taylor's I Bet You Think About Me video with Keeley playing the bride. Taylor captioned behind the scenes photos, calling Keeley the coolest living human on planet Earth. Their friendship goes back to twenty fifteen now for Taylor's perfect response to album criticism. During an Apple Music interview, she handled the mixed reviews brilliantly. First, she thanked her critics if it's the first week of my album release, and you are saying either my name or my album title, you're helping.
4:45 She focused on fans. Our goal as entertainers is to be a mirror. What you're going through in your life is going to affect whether you relate to the music and putting out at any given moment. She gave people permission to change their minds based on life events. She stood by her work. When I'm making my music, I know what I made, I know I adore it, and cleverly pointed out that getting criticism fits the album's theme, The Life of a Showgirl includes I paid my dues with every bruise. I knew what to expect, She said, all of this is part of it. This response is a masterclass in handling criticism. She turned negativity into engagement, made it about the fans, not herself, and stayed confident in her art while acknowledging subjective opinions and the success speaks for itself. The Life of a Showgirl just spent its fourth consecutive week at number one on the Billboard two hundred with one hundred forty six thousand units. It's only the second album of twenty twenty five to spend its first four weeks at number one, following Morgan Wallin's eight weeks. The Fate of Ophelia also holds number one on the Hot one hundred for a fourth week, with twenty nine million streams and fifty five million in radio audience.
5:58 Taylor just achieved something no other artist has done, debuting at number one on both Billboard two hundred and Hot one hundred simultaneously and holding both for an entire month. She released an acoustic alone in My Tower version available through October thirtieth, helping fuel its continued rain. The closest competition was K pop demon Hunter's soundtrack at number two with eighty four thousand units. More in a moment looking at this week, the irony of Trump using Taylor's music while claiming to hate her, Kayla's petty but iconic Halloween shade, Taylor living unbothered with NYC dates and making history on the charts while gracefully handling criticism the fact that she's breaking records while people claim the album is flopping. The numbers don't lie. Four weeks at number one on both major charts simultaneously has never been done before, and her response to critics was so mature, acknowledging art is subjective while standing confident in her work. Meanwhile, Kayla's Halloween costume was entertainment gold even if it was shady. Taylor Swift Today now has an official Facebook community.
