I went to see Taylor Swift’s concert film out of curiosity yesterday, and was, excuse the expression, blown away. What an immense talent!
The songs are good, the singing is good, and there’s joyousness and friendliness throughout.
She’s adorable, slyly sexy, wholesome, and having a ton of fun. You can see why her fans relate to her.
Notable is her rapport with her dancers and the band; they obviously love each other. And the dancers are not of the usual lithe and buffed and perfect variety, but rather normal looking people of all body types.
I didn’t expect to stay for the entire 2½ hours, but I was riveted.
And seeing something on a 50-foot screen (as opposed to these dinky little phone images) is a treat.

Lloyd…very nice of you to “report”. Nice to hear about it all.
Even nicer to hear your opinion of her/concert etc.. Not sure how to say this/emphasize this, but
so many of the famous/loved/heroes have “fallen” in to disrepute….It is a genuine “spirit lift” to hear of her continued
success in all the areas you mentioned.!!!!
A surprise nice time, how very special.
Lloyd’s a Swifty!

Taylor Swift makes history as Time’s Person of the Year for 2023
Taylor Swift is in her Person of the Year Era…. again.
Time has named Swift Person of the Year for 2023. The achievement is an historic one, making her the first woman to appear twice on a Person of the Year cover since the franchise began in 1927, according to Time.
Swift was also named Person of the Year in 2017, when she was recognized as one of the Silence Breakers, a group the magazine identified as vital to the #MeToo movement and inspired women to speak out about sexual misconduct.
