After the Kansas City Chiefs secured a spot in the 2024 Super Bowl (tight end Travis Kelce celebrated by kissing girlfriend Taylor Swift), former Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy also I had to be heard.
Mr. Ramaswamy, who withdrew from the presidential race to support Donald Trump, tried to rig the upcoming Super Bowl between the Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers in November to set the stage for Mr. Swift to support President Joe Biden. I predicted that it would happen.
“I’m curious to see who wins next month’s Super Bowl. And will there be massive presidential support from artificially culturally supported couples this fall?” Ramaswamy Posted X in response to a theory by alt-right media personality Jack Posobiec.
“Think about when Taylor Swift accused the Soros family of buying the rights to her music in 2019, and how she came out as an ultra-liberal in 2020. ,” wrote Posobiec, widely known as the frontrunner of the bizarre conspiracy theory known as “Pizzagate.” He claimed that Hillary Clinton was behind a child sex ring.
“Let’s do some wild speculation here. Let’s see how it ages over the next eight months,” Ramaswamy added in a previously reported post. mediate.
It’s unclear whether Swift intends to support Biden for a second term, but the president’s campaign has expressed interest in having the global pop star join his campaign.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a top Biden surrogate, said he had “almost begged” Swift to support the commander-in-chief. new york times report.
“Taylor Swift is tall and unique,” Newsom told reporters after the Republican primary debate in September.
“What she’s been able to accomplish in getting young people to think that they have a voice and that they should have a choice in the next election is tremendous,” he added, according to the New York Times. I think it’s very powerful,” he added.
The buzz about Swift endorsing Biden has become so intense that Biden’s campaign has announced a strategy for recruiting applicants for open positions on social media to hire Swift, who has more than 279 million followers on Instagram. I asked him not to explain.
According to the New York Times, the campaign has already received ample proposals for a so-called “Taylor Swift strategy,” including forcing Biden to cancel Swift’s blockbuster concert “Ellas Tour.” It is said that
Swift’s publicist, Tree Payne, did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.
As with the NFL, Swift’s support will undoubtedly bring a lot of value.
Swift alone generated $331.5 million in “brand value” for the Chiefs and the NFL. Front Office Sports recently reportedciting data from Apex Marketing Group.
The numbers are based on print, digital, radio, television, highlights and social media monitoring from Sept. 24, when Swift appeared in his first Chiefs game, through Jan. 22, the day after his district round appearance in Buffalo. The financial income was calculated by taking into account the following: The amount will be determined based on the “scope and impact” of each occurrence, the report said.
Apex President Eric Smallwood told Front Office Sports that digital content and online news created the most value ahead of social media.
In October, when Swift and Kelsea’s romance became a national sensation after they were photographed on a date night in New York City, the Grammy winner earned $166 million.
After the Chiefs’ Week 3 win, Swift became a regular at Kelce’s games, appearing in 12 of the Chiefs’ 18 games, including all three playoff games on the way to the 2024 Super Bowl.
The “Shake It Off” singer also helped generate the highest number of regular-season female viewers since the NFL began collecting data in 2000, and the 18-to-34 demographic since 2019. This marked the top of the regular season. Female viewership increased by 9% from the previous year. That’s more than the 6 percent increase in male viewership from last season to this season, according to a report from Front Office Sports.
In addition, Swift also helped sell the product.
After Swift attended his first Chiefs game, Kelce’s gear increased by 400% and became one of the top five selling jerseys.
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell said earlier this year that the romance was “great” for the NFL, and financial data was released to back that up.
“Listen, they’re happy,” Goodell said in November. “They seem to be enjoying their relationship, which is great in itself. But it has in a way brought more Taylor fans together and more fans in the NFL. Once they know there is, they in turn have a connection to our game and Taylor.”
