By: Riya Gupta Albums. Concerts. Fame. Awards. It seems like Taylor Swift has it all. Born in 1989, Taylor Swift worked extremely hard to get to where she is since she was very young. She spent sleepless midnights on each album to make sure it would be loved for evermore. For the last year or so, the fearless Taylor Swift has been travelling across the world performing her Eras Concert, which consists of the most popular songs from each of her ten albums. Tonight, she will be performing in Sydney, Australia! The show has already made $1.04 billion, but it is expected to accumulate a total of $4.3 billion! The Eras Tour was so loved, that the concert that took place in Los Angeles, California became a multi-million dollar film that is streamed across theatres world-wide. Swift’s music has an amazing reputation and has captivated so many of her fans that they have gone to see the concert or movie multiple times! In fact, her ‘Swifties’ love her songs so much, that they were nominated for many awards - like the Grammys. On February 4, 2024, Taylor Swift won her thirteenth Grammy for the album, Midnights. She became the first artist to win four Grammys under the title ‘Album of the Year’. The three-time winners are Frank Sinatra, Stevie Wonder, and Paul Simon. This also makes Taylor Swift the only woman and modern artist to win a Grammy for Album of the Year so many times. While receiving this accolade, Swift was told to speak now, and while giving her acceptance speech, announced that her highly anticipated eleventh album, The Tortured Poets Department, would be released on April 19, 2024. As Grammy host Trevor Noah said, “[W]e could see history made tonight.” Taylor Swift made a guest appearance at the Superbowl, flying directly in from Tokyo, Japan, where she had been performing her Eras Tour. She was seen wearing red and yellow and cheering on her lover, Travis Kelce, the tight end on the Kansas City Chiefs. Swift has influenced the NFL in more ways than most people notice. The NFL has made approximately $331.5 million just from social media, highlights, and print with Taylor Swift. She also made many people more interested in the games. In fact, CBS news stated that “24% Gen-Zers and 20% of millennials say they're more interested in football this year because of Swift's relationship with Kelce.” Taylor Swift has accomplished so much in her life already, and she’s only 33, so she has a long way to go. And maybe in the very distant future when Taylor Swift becomes just folklore, people will say that she was a legend in the making. *Did anyone notice that I used the names of each of Taylor Swift’s eleven albums (Taylor Swift, Fearless, Speak Now, Red, 1989, Reputation, Lover, Folklore, Evermore, Midnights, and The Tortured Poets Department) at least once?* Sources:
