💬| CEO of American Century Investments revealed some details about Taylor Swift’s wedding:
“The officiator says for rich or for poor. Adam [Sandler] said you’re not gonna have to worry about that… Travis first started with his vows he probably spoke about 30 minutes, not violate his privacy I was crying which is something i was holding back from, and I looked around there is this bunch of 300lbs football men crying as well. Then, Taylor went she also probably spoke for 30 minutes, she wrote her own vows it was poetic, she’s a writer you know… We walked through this massive castle, then behind there is a place for games and amazing giveaways to people, and then there is the stage where Taylor and Paul went first, then Taylor and Stevie, then the entire entertainment industry went up and sang songs… We were surrounded by legends, I’ve never seen a wedding that has been calibrated for the guests, to make sure they’re delighted and having fun, usually the ongoing theme is about the groom & the bride.”
the air quality sucks, the food gives you explosive diarrhea, we have no public transport, medical care is unaffordable, they’re tearing down forests to build AI data centers and I still have to clock in for work
🎵| Aaron Dessner spoke about working with Taylor Swift on “So Long, London” & “Cardigan”:
— 🤍 “So Long, London”: “It's a good story how this happened. Taylor was, she actually arranged those vocals to go at the end of the song. So she was doing those choral, like these angelic choral parts over the end of the last chorus of the song that you hear.
When you listen to the song, you'll hear her doing that. But then she actually said, but what if that went at the beginning of the song?
Taylor is interesting when she records because she's mapped it out in her head.”
— 🩶 “cardigan”: “That one's interesting. It's actually what you hear when that song starts, you hear the air conditioning in the backstage of an arena in Germany where The National was playing where I wrote it because it was really cold. But then that's me patting my leg, playing drums on my leg, which I often do, which I learned over time that if you record yourself playing surfaces or your body and record it with an iPhone, it just sounds cool. I wrote the music first and Taylor wrote to it. I think she said that when she heard that sound of what is me playing my thigh, essentially, that it reminded her of someone walking on cobble stones and high heels unevenly, and that gave her an image in her mind that led her into the narrative that she wrote.”
💬| Eric Stonestreet reveals his favorite moment of Taylor Swift’s wedding:
“I think my favorite moment was just that they created a place that they could have the normalcy that they deserve, and it just happened to be at Madison Square Garden with security making sure everybody was safe and good and they could just have a night for themselves. I really thought of it as what a gift they gave to us too, it’s one thing nobody’s talking about is what a gesture it was to those people that they invited and to welcome us and to provide such an incredible night and then to provide such incredible generous donations to charities in New York and Kansas City and everywhere else.”
the fact that she had her quinceanera on the set of wizards of waverly place and her graduation on the set of monte carlo... her work ethic is so insane like NO ONE is touching her 😭
Jennifer Lawrence says she refused to lose weight for The Hunger Games because she didn’t want young girls to feel they had to look a certain way to be Katniss.
“The Hunger Games felt like an awesome responsibility.”
“The books were huge, and I knew the audience was children.”
“The biggest conversation was about my weight.”
“People kept asking, ‘How much weight are you going to lose?’”
“They’d say, ‘Well, it’s called The Hunger Games.’”
“I didn’t want all the girls dressing up as Katniss to feel like they couldn’t because they weren’t a certain weight.”
“I couldn’t let that seep into my brain.”
“I just wasn’t going to do that.”
💬| Jason Kelce on how special Taylor and Travis’ wedding was for them as a family with his daughter being the flower girls:
"It was a special event for our entire family, and obviously my daughters are incredible. They're beautiful, they're incredible personalities. And Travis and Taylor love them. So, very happy we were able to be a part of it. And more importantly, very happy for those two. It was an amazing day."
kind little reminder that his family is trying to keep his legacy alive with the cameron boyce foundation whilst also trying to raise more awareness about SUDEP. (sudden unexplained death in epilepsy). and is something that should also be shared!!!!
💬 | Lin-Manuel Miranda praises Taylor Swift’s song “I Knew It, I Knew You” amid potential Oscar nominations buzz for both his and Taylor’s songs:
“I love Taylor, and I love that song. I thought her song for Toy Story 5 was really fun. Listen, when you’re writing for characters, you’re not thinking about the Oscars. You’re thinking like, ‘How on earth do I pull this off? How can it feel honest and true?’ And I think she did a wonderful job doing that in Toy Story 5, and I was really proud to do that for our film.”
Suki Waterhouse talked about how was opening to Taylor Swift at 'The Eras Tour' with The Standart:
“The Eras Tour, I definitely remember very clearly of course. What I took away from that particular experience was just how special [Swift] makes you feel. There’s a letter waiting for you; she’ll always come in and thank every single person on your team and in your band, she always takes the time to make everyone feel important and included. She does things that she doesn’t need to do or that wouldn’t be expected of her all the time.”
me parece genial que el mismo tipo que, en el año en que quisieron cancelar a taylor, grabó un video tirando las zapatillas de kanye west a la basura, haya sido el padrino de honor en la boda de taylor.
💬| Grammy Award-winning music producer Smittybeatz, a childhood friend of Travis Kelce’s on Taylor Swift’s wedding:
“I can say is that it was a beautiful ceremony and a beautiful wedding for a beautiful couple, I’m extremely happy for the both of them. They turned the Garden into a garden of love and wonderment, it was timeless. Again, very happy for them both. They are soulmates for sure.”
‼️| Taylor Swift’s wedding dress was ‘all anyone was whispering about’ at Dior Fashion show yesterday, per NYT.
— A spokesman for the brand promised all would be revealed, at some point, after Swift herself posts the first pictures on her Instagram. They just weren't sure when that might be.
