Taylor Alison Swift is an American singer-songwriter. She is known for narrative songs about her personal life, which have received widespread media coverage. At age 14, Swift became the youngest artist signed by the Sony/ATV Music publishing house and, at 15, she signed her first record deal.
Her 2006 eponymous debut album was the longest-charting album of the 2000s in the US. Its third single, "Our Song", made her the youngest person to single-handedly write and perform a number-one song on the Billboard Hot Country Songs chart. Swift's second album, Fearless, was released in 2008.
Buoyed by the pop crossover success of the singles "Love Story" and "You Belong with Me", it became the US' best-selling album of 2009 and was certified diamond in the US. The album won four Grammy Awards, and Swift became the youngest Album of the Year winner.
Bill Maher sparks anger by saying Taylor Swift is “tacky” and Travis Kelce is going to “dump her”
nme.comTaylor Swift “tacky” and saying that Travis Kelce is going to “dump her”.Maher released the latest episode of his Club Random podcast last Sunday (July 28), which featured special guest Haliey Welch aka the ‘Hawk Tuah’ girl.The 68-year-old comedian brought up Swift to Welch, saying that he preferred her music more “when she was country”, and that he loves her 2010 song ‘Sparks Fly’.However, it wasn’t long until he became more critical, specifically bringing up Swift’s public romance with Kelce.“I’m sure she’s a lovely person, but the whole thing with the football player… it just felt like 35 is a little old to be like, ‘My boyfriend’s a football player, and I wear his jersey to the game with his number on it’,” Maher said.He then made the bold prediction that Kelce is “gonna dump” Swift.“With her, it’s like the Gatorade at the Super Bowl,” he added, referencing the tradition of the winning team pouring Gatorade over their head coach at the end of the finals. “You know you’re gonna get dumped – you just don’t know when.”Welch chimed in: “But you gotta think about it this way.
If he does that, can you imagine the next album we’re gonna get off that? It won’t be ‘fuck John Mayer‘ anymore. It’ll be ‘fuck Travis’.”Maher then asked if Swift was still singing about ex-boyfriend Mayer. “Her tour is the ‘Eras Tour’… it must’ve had the songs about all the people that she wrote songs about,” he continued.“I’d feel tacky if I was singing about my ex-boyfriend,” Welch said. “You can’t control what the muse dictates to you — she’s a songwriter.
