  9. My grampa loves Taylor Swift. Not specifically for her music, but her as a human being.

    Recently, my grampa said he predicts that “By 2024 or 2025, Taylor Swift will either start a record company where the artists and everyone involved get paid their fair share. Or she’ll start a ticketing company like Ticketmaster, except she’ll do it the right way, she won’t scam people or do any of the BS Ticketmaster did“

    My grampa is a wise man, he’s lived a lot, he’s had a lot of experience. He’s a marine, he grew up in the projects, he’s had a lot of ups and downs throughout his life that impacted him emotionally, physically, and mentally. He’s a very strong man, but he doesn’t take himself too seriously and he’s not as cynical as other old folks like my other grandfather for instance, who has one idea of what hard work is, and despises anyone who lives a different lifestyle than he does. My grampa is more excepting of the newer generation to a certain degree, if you want to be a baseball player or an actor, or a YouTuber, he’s very supportive of those dreams, and will encourage it. He can also read between the lines and see what’s real and what’s not. He’s not a Swiftie, he just likes her as a person. He watches the news a lot, he still reads the newspaper, and he still sees the stuff about Taylor in the news, and he doesn’t blindly side with the media when it’s reporting, but he takes that information in and has his own opinion about it.

  14. I'm not a Swiftie but Taylor has been in this industry for so long and she seems to get better and more popular as she goes. I've never listened to her songs except the famous ones played in the mall or radio, but this year I decided to listen to some of her songs because of all the commotion going on around her and I actually found some of her songs to be a masterpiece. also, her relationship with Travis kelce is one I have been kind of obsessed about because even if you are not a Swiftie you've probably seen her on the tabloids o who she dating and I'm a huge Travis and Jason fan so I really do hope they last because, in a world boys, Travis is a gentleman!!

  24. The USA Bureaucratic Goverment plan is not that Taylor Swift will get out the young vote. They will simply cheat with the numbers and say the young vote came out in support of Biden. When Big Goverment does something they deal in perceptions not realities.

  28. There are 8.1 billion people in the world. Some are research scientists, some are teachers, some volunteer their time, some stand up for their beliefs, some fight to protect the innocent. Some of these people go above and beyond. Some risk it all simply to make a difference. Some of these individuals go out every day and selflessly work to improve the lives of others not for the money or accolades but because, they believe, it's the right thing to do. And yet, this is who they choose to be TIME Magazine's POY. Tay Tay. It says a lot about our Humanity and where we are headed. Good luck folks.

  31. I see a lot of comments on here Fantastic musical career. I believe she was picked for her humanitarian and philanthropic deeds. She even showed wealthy businessmen that paying your workers a good salary doesn’t mean you will go broke. And the nail I think is her political activism.

  33. I have never listen to her music as that is not my style of music. But as a person she is kind, does a lot for people in the places where she tours is genuinely an awesome young lady and loves everyone and supports them. Always so positive. Congratulations on your award.
