Hey Swifties, welcome back to Taylor Swift Today. I'm your host, Ali,
and oh my gosh, do we have some heartwarming stories today.
From the most unexpected celebrity praise to secret music video shoots.
Speaker 1 (00:20):
Taylor's been busy making moves.
Speaker 2 (00:22):
Plus we've got some adorable Travis content and a wild
theory about Happy Gilmore two that has the fandom going
absolutely feral. Let's jump right in first up and this
is honestly making me so emotional. A beautiful story about
Ozzy Osbourne is resurfacing after his passing last week at
seventy six. You guys, the Prince of Darkness himself was
(00:44):
apparently a massive swiftye. Back in twenty fourteen, Sharon Osbourne
shared this incredible story when Ozzie met Taylor during a
chance shopping encounter and his reaction I'm literally tearing up.
Speaker 1 (00:56):
Ozzie told Sharon that Taylor.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Was a true superstar, and get this, he compared her
to Grace Kelly and Audrey Hepburn all rolled into one.
How beautiful is that the heavy metal legends saw exactly
what we all see in Taylor. That rare combination of talent, grace,
and genuine star quality. Sharon said Ozzy was so mesmerized
he barely spoke during their meeting because he was too
(01:20):
busy staring at Taylor, and Taylor, being the sweetheart she is,
called his words the sweetest thing in the world. This
story hits even harder knowing Ozzy passed away just weeks
after his final performance with Black Sabbath. It's such a
reminder that Taylor's impact transcends genres and generations, from metal
(01:40):
icons to pop stars. Everyone recognizes her special quality. Speaking
of people recognizing how amazing Taylor is, we need to
talk about the latest from Aaron Andrews and Charissa Thompson.
Remember how we saw that photo of them hanging out
with Taylor and Travis while they finally spilled some tea
on their Calm Down podcast. Thompson called Taylor everything that
(02:02):
I'd ever hoped and dreamed that she could have been
and more. I mean, same girl, same and Andrews said
Taylor is a twenty out of ten and that their
group of six had a good good time together. They
both kept calling Taylor and Travis adorable together, which is
giving major couple goals vibes. What I really loved was
how protective they were of Taylor and Travis's privacy. Andrews
(02:25):
said they never planned on saying anything because they're so
protective of them and their privacy and what they deserve.
Speaker 1 (02:32):
That's real friendship right there.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
It's so refreshing to see celebrities respecting boundaries while still
sharing how wonderful Taylor is in person, and the celebrity
praise train doesn't stop there. Adam Sandler has been absolutely
gushing about Taylor lately, and it's the sweetest thing.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
He revealed that he.
Speaker 2 (02:50):
And one of his daughters listened to All Too Well
the ten minute version three times in a row during
a car ride.
Speaker 1 (02:57):
He called it tremendous and said it got me rock in.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
But what really got me was when Sandler talked about
how Taylor has met his kids a bunch of times
over the years and how she's ridiculously nice to them
and warm. He literally said, Taylor is incredible and so
damn nice to my family. This is giving major. Taylor
remembers everyone and treats them like gold energy, which we've
heard from literally everyone who meets her. Now, let's talk
(03:24):
about this wild happy Gilmore too. Theory that has swifties
losing their minds. So Travis has a scene in the
movie where he's shirtless getting covered in honey by bad
Bunny while being attacked by a bear. Normal Tuesday for Travis, right,
But here's where it gets interesting. When Netflix posted behind
the scenes footage, fans started speculating that Taylor was the
(03:45):
one in the bear costume, and then Netflix replied to
a comment about it with the eyes emoji I'm literally screaming.
The evidence is admittedly thin, but Taylor did promote the
movie on her Instagram story with a honeypot emoji, writing
that it had me cackling and cheering the whole movie.
She called it thirteen slash ten, and we all know
(04:06):
thirteen is her number. Plus, she's developed such a good
relationship with Adam Sandler and his family, so it wouldn't
be crazy for her to have been on set supporting Travis.
Can you imagine Taylor Swift in a bear costume attacking
her boyfriend with honey for a comedy movie. This is
giving chaotic girlfriend energy and I'm here for it.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
But wait, there's more.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
According to the Sun, Taylor filmed a secret music video
in Los Angeles last week, and the security was so
tight that people working on set weren't even allowed to
hear the song, only the beat. You guys, what is
she planning? This is giving major ts twelve vibes. Remember
how we talked about those November twenty fourth theories from
Travis's Instagram. Well, secret music videos usually mean new music
(04:50):
is coming. The New York Post mentioned that details are
completely under wraps, but this is presumed to be for
the follow up to the Tortured Poets.
Speaker 1 (04:58):
Department lit literally vibrating with excitement.
Speaker 2 (05:02):
Taylor's team being this secretive means whatever she's cooking up
is going to be huge.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
More in a moment.
Speaker 2 (05:16):
In other news, Mark Murran just revealed he paid fifty
thousand dollars to use one minute of Bigger Than the
Whole Sky in his HBO special Can You Believe That?
He said he reached out to Jack Antonov for help
since Jack co wrote the song, but Jack told him
to go through official channels. What's really sweet is that
Maren has become a total swiftye. He talked about listening
(05:37):
to Midnights on a hike and being impressed by the
longing and sadness and isolation in her music. He said
he finally understood what everyone never shuts up about regarding Taylor.
Speaker 1 (05:48):
Welcome to the club, Mark.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
And finally, there's this beautiful article about Taylor's favorite books
that shows how literature has influenced her songwriting. Did you
know Starlight and Read was inspired by reading about Ethel
and Robert Kennedy's love story, or that Tolerate It came
from reading Rebecca by Daphne du Mourier during quarantine. She's
also a huge fan of The Hunger Games, which makes
(06:13):
total sense given how she's had to fight and survive
in this industry. And like many millennial women, she loves
Sally Rooney's conversations with Friends. Taylor told Entertainment Weekly, it's
like being inside somebody's mind, which is exactly what her
songwriting does for us. Looking at all these stories together,
what strikes me is how Taylor continues to impect people
(06:34):
across all industries and generations, from heavy metal legends to
comedians to actors. Everyone who meets her or engages with
her work comes away impressed by her talent, kindness, and authenticity.
And with secret music videos being filmed and all these
breadcrumbs she's leaving. It really feels like we're on the
verge of a new era between Travis proudly supporting her
(06:55):
in everything, her continued influence on popular culture and potentially
music on the horizon, Taylor just keeps winning. That's all
for today's episode of Taylor Swift Today. What do you
think was Taylor really in that bear costume? Are we
getting TS twelve soon? And how sweet was that Ozzy
Osbourne story? This is Ali reminding you to keep your
(07:16):
eyes peeled for more Easter eggs. Stay fearless, Swifties,
