celeb news HDD: Taylor Swift at "Beatles-level" of fame, '1989 (TV)' debut to top 'Midnights'?

[Feanor]

 

Quote

Perhaps no one embodies the synergy between the NFL and the music world more conclusively than Taylor Swift. Her presence at the Chiefs-Jets game, ostensibly to cheer on paramour and Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, gave that contest the best Sunday-night ratings since the Super Bowl. The cameras went back to her compulsively at MetLife, her songs were constant broadcast bum­pers and the whole thing absolutely blanketed the socials.

Quote

Wonderers wonder if 1989 (Taylor’s Version) will give Tay her biggest first week yet and how many different covers and tinted-vinyl versions she’ll roll out this time. Think she couldn’t be more dominant in pop culture? Just watch. This Halloween, she eats all the candy.

Quote

It’s noteworthy that at this Beatles-level crest of her fame, Taylor has urged her massive fan base (273m followers on IG alone) to register to vote and become politically engaged […]. How involved will she become in the life-or-death 2024 elections? Democracy’s rooting section fervently hopes she stays in for the duration. She can unquestionably make a difference. Maybe the difference.

After Midnights debut I made a thread saying Taylor career trajectory to Beatles and MJ. It was laughing point at that time now everyone who knows how Music Industry works is saying so

I can’t believe she’s challenging her biggest debut week with a re-recording 

 

It’s one re-peak after another

 

I’m starting to think that TS11 could be a 25 sized first week event

Did Taylor get involved in a Senate race a few years ago and her candidate lost in a landslide?

[Maroonx]

I can see it debuting bigger than Midnights, but idk if it'll sell as much in the long run. People will still stream the old version, which will take away some streaming points from the TV.

Midnights kinda was. 1.6 million first week in this climate (575k vinyl), record breaking streaming numbers, complete sweep of billboard hot 100 top 10. 

[LCTV]

She is whether you like her or not is not part of the debate.

[Asscatchem]

the debut will be high but the production quality will be a disappointment like speak now.

are people really looking forward to Blank Space, Style (Max Martin-less Discount Version)?

[KatyPrismSpirit]

Tea though. I will be streaming the stolen versions as always and just pick and choose the good vault tracks. Wildest Dreams (WalMart Version) is unlistenable for me. As a production-head, I can't use it.

I don’t know about all that but she definitely needs to do Super Bowl 2025 as the finale of this re-peak era and then vanish for a good 7-10 years. 

[By the Water]

She's bigger than them once you divide their success by the number of members and add male privilege tax

Why would she vanish at the (current) apex of her career?

But what about the clubs in Liechtenstein

I was at a gay bar in Vatican last week and they played Soon You’ll Get Better. The crowd went crazy at her line about praying to Jesus. She’s repeaking

Disappearing for even half that would do massive damage

absolutely, dr. puke's bestie and his dated mess can go to hell, the only reason their work together aged like fine wine (unlike his work with others) is simply HER, also, as incredible the original Speak Now was, TV elevated the entire project to another level
