Taylor Swift has been named Time’s Person Of The Year for 2023. She beat out several other finalists who made waves in politics, entertainment, and pop culture this year.
Upon earning the title, Swift told Time, “This is the proudest and happiest I’ve ever felt, and the most creatively fulfilled and free I’ve ever been. Ultimately, we can convolute it all we want, or try to overcomplicate it, but there’s only one question…Are you not entertained?”
Time’s Person Of The Year
It has been a massive year for the pop star. Her “Eras Tour” was a highlight of the summer. You couldn’t escape it. According to CBS News, the tour was so massive it even boosted tourism and travel. In fact, so much that it positively impacted the economy. That’s unreal!
Additionally, Taylor shattered records at the box office with her concert film. CBS News reports that AMC Theatres called it the highest-grossing concert movie in history. Now Beyoncé has to try to top that? Good luck!
In 2023, Swift also achieved billionaire status. Back in October, she re-released her hit album “1989.” Bloomberg says that helped push her from multi-millionaire to billionaire.
Also, Taylor Swift was Spotify’s most-streamed artist this year, according to CBS News. It’s about that time where your friends will all be sharing their Spotify stats. Don’t be surprised when they’re all boasting about their Taylor Swift percentile.
Taylor Swift Dominated 2023
She also made headlines throughout the sports community once she started allegedly dating Kansas City Chiefs star Tight End Travis Kelce. Their romance was followed by television and the internet with an obsession. They were everywhere. At one point, Taylor was the biggest story in all of sports. All the networks and shows were talking about her daily. That’s a hard feat to accomplish!
This year, Swift beat out names like Britain’s King Charles III, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman, and the Hollywood actors and writers that went on strike.
Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce: Cute Photos Of Them Together
The Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce romance continues, and more cute photos of them emerged this weekend.
They already had what some call a “hard launch” of their relationship when they showed on on Saturday Night Live last week. Taylor has been to four Kansas City Chiefs games. She went to the first one against the Bears in Arrowhead, then went to the Chiefs/Jets game when they played at Met Life Stadium, and then she was at the Thursday night game when the Chiefs played the Broncos and the Chiefs vs Chargers game yesterday.
It was a whirlwind few weeks for Taylor, as her movie, officially called Taylor Swift: The Ears Tour Movie broke major records. I got to see it yesterday and it’s incredible. Also, make a note that it is three hours long just like the real concert. Taylor was in LA for the Eras Tour Movie premiere then she flew right to Kansas City Thursday morning for Travis’ game on Thursday night. Then they flew to NYC together, stayed there for the weekend. She then flew from NYC to LA and Travis went from LA to Philly for the Phillies game with Jason Kelce and then back to Kansas City just in time to record his “New Heights” podcast on Tuesday, which comes out on Wednesdays.
And to think, it all started when Taylor Swift brought The Eras Tour to Arrowhead in Kansas City, Travis revealed on his New Heights podcast that he went to the show and that he made her a friendship bracelet with this phone number. He wanted to give it to her, but unfortunately, she didn’t meet him. Turns out she did meet him after all. In fact, during a press conference this week, Travis said he had the mustache the first time he met Taylor, which means if you’re following the timeline of their relationship, they met in the beginning of August. Check out the adorable pics below.
Cort Freeman was born and raised in Metro Detroit. He was named Clarkston High School 2009 Class Clown 13 years after graduating. Totally normal thing to happen. That’s thanks to his time spent as an Intern at Comedy Central and Social Media Correspondent for The Colbert Report. Cort has done comedy across the country, both standing up and sitting down. When he’s not trying to make you laugh on-air and online, he’s probably at home enjoying his favorite shows like Seinfeld, South Park, and The Office. He’s also totally uncomfortable writing about himself in the third person. Cort enjoys writing about comedy, food, sports, and entertainment. So, basically anything and everything.
