Taylor Swift Just Shattered This Record Trump Previously Held, And It Only Took Her 1 Hour To Do So

We're sure there will be bad blood. Taylor Swift has broken a record previously held by President Donald Trump. Related: On Wednesday, the Grammy winner appeared on the New Heights podcast hand-in-hand with her boyfriend and co-host Travis Kelce, as his older brother, Jason Kelce, interviewed Swift for a little over two hours. The Daily Beast reports that 1.3 million viewers tuned to watch the podcast episode on YouTube within the first hour that it was online. The outlet notes that reps for the 'Shake It Off' singer confirmed the number. Related: The figure trumps the record previously held by Trump. His appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience in Oct. 2024 saw 800,000 people tune in within the first hour, according to CNN data analyst Harry Enten. CNN host Kate Bolduan also noted Wednesday the episode is 'already on track to become one of the most watched podcasts of all time.' Related: Trump will likely be pretty peeved about Swift mopping him up. The president expressed hostility towards the 'Blank Space' singer after she publicly endorsed Kamala Harris in the build-up to the 2024 presidential election. 'I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT,' he wrote in all caps on his Truth Social platform at the time. @Phil_Lewis_/X/@realDonaldTrump/TruthSocial / Via In May, the president proved he was no Swiftie yet again when he published another post on Truth Social that read: 'Has anyone noticed that, since I said 'I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT,' she's no longer 'HOT?'' Related: We suppose that at least 1.3 million people think otherwise. This article originally appeared on HuffPost. Also in Celebrity: Also in Celebrity: Also in Celebrity: Solve the daily Crossword

Taylor Swift's uproarious bread puns from 'New Heights,' ranked

There were so many things to take away from the Taylor Swift appearance on the New Heights podcast with Travis Kelce and his brother Jason, from how good the former Eagle was at hosting to learning about Swift's fandom. But, oh, the bread! We have to talk about the bread! Swift talked a lot about baking sourdough and mentioned that she marks her bread bags with labels that are puns having to do with her own songs. This might have been my favorite thing in this whole podcast. It's just amazing to see Swift lean into all of these puns and jokes about her songs, like she was a fan online. So as this site's resident Dad Joke expert, I'm going to rank the ones we heard by how good they are: 4. Flour song is a slammin' screen door This is a good take on Our Song, but I think Swift had better ones. 3. Are you bready for it? It's a funny joke about ...Ready For It, don't get me wrong. But it's just a little too easy. 2. Loafing him was bread NOW we're talking. Two puns in one on Red. But it can't top No. 1. 1. It's a loaf story, baby, just say "yeast" Give this one a standing ovation. This is perfect, 10/10, no notes, a take on a Swift classic.

Could Taylor Swift be playing the 2026 Super Bowl halftime show? Here are all the possible clues she dropped on the 'New Heights' podcast.

If Swift were to perform at the Super Bowl — as some fans are speculating — it would be her first time appearing on the halftime stage. Swifties think their favorite artist is dropping hints about a major upcoming gig — but is Taylor Swift really performing at the Super Bowl halftime show next year? Fans think it's very likely, as long as you read between the lines of her New Heights podcast interview with boyfriend Travis Kelce. Swift appeared on the podcast that Kelce hosts with his brother, Jason, on Aug. 13 to talk about her upcoming album The Life of a Showgirl. As Swift typically does, she dropped oodles of Easter eggs — or clues to her upcoming work — prior to the album reveal. But now, some fans think that she also teased clues during the interview that point toward the Super Bowl. Nothing has been officially announced, and all of these fan theories are pure speculation. However, if Swift does perform at the Super Bowl, it would be her first time gracing the halftime show at the sporting event — a gig she allegedly turned down before. But with an NFL player boyfriend who has won three Super Bowl titles in the past, it's possible that now is a great time for her to take the stage. Here's what we know. Swift may have dropped these numbers on purpose If you speak Swiftie, the reasons are compelling. For one thing, Swift spoke explicitly about Easter eggs on the podcast — including mentioning how she loves using 'numerology' to leave a trail of breadcrumbs. Fans who have tracked Swift's hints over the years saw it as a sign to look toward the numbers mentioned on the podcast — and one specific number stood out. As multiple people on social media pointed out, Swift referenced the number '47' twice in the podcast — once, when she joked that she performed in '47,000 countries' for the Eras Tour, and again when she thanked Jason for screaming for '47 seconds' when she revealed her new album on the pod. Why is 47 significant? Well, as some on social media pointed out, the 47th show at the Eras Tour was in Santa Clara, Calif., at Levi's Stadium. Where is the next Super Bowl being held? Levi's Stadium. But that isn't all. As TikToker @SamKochman pointed out in a video, there are more signs that seem to be pointing to this particular stadium. 'The mascot for the 49ers is Sourdough Sam, and she spent a whole lot of time talking about sourdough,' the TikToker noted, referencing how Swift gushed over her current baking obsession, even sending Kelce some bread during training camp. And she also said she's thinking about sourdough '60%' of the time — potentially a reference to the upcoming 60th Super Bowl. Oh, and here's some advanced Swiftie math: And what's 47 plus 13, Swift's favorite number? Why, it's 60. The hints go beyond numerology Another possible clue that Swift might be performing at the halftime show? She referenced her passion for those performances directly on the podcast, saying that she knew 'every halftime show from the Super Bowls' even when she 'didn't watch sports.' And though Swift has since become a football fan, thanks to boyfriend Kelce, the 'Blank Space' singer teased that she has also seen some of the negative discourse around her at the games, another possible hint at what's to come. 'As we all know, you know, you guys have a lot of male sports fans that listen to your podcast,' Swift said. 'I think we all know that if there's one thing that male sports fans want to see in their spaces and on their screens, it's more of me.' So, will we see Swift come Super Bowl Sunday, 2026? We'll have to wait and see, but it's worth noting that if an announcement is made, it will likely be soon: The choice of Kendrick Lamar to headline the 2025 Super Bowl halftime show was revealed on Sept. 8, 2024, and Usher's 2024 performance was announced on Sept. 24, 2023.
