SWIFTLY DEALT WITH

Taylor Swift Slams ‘Shockingly Offensive’ Speculation About Her Marriage

The star was taken aback by a question while promoting her new album, “The Life of a Showgirl.”

Taylor Swift fans have caught the ire of their idol for speculating she plans to stop making music after her marriage to Travis Kelce. The megastar sat down with U.K.-based BBC Radio host Scott Mills to discuss her new album, The Life of a Showgirl. “Taylor, don’t tell me this is your last album,” Mills said. “What? No,” Swift responded, seemingly taken aback. “I just saw some fans going ‘Well if she’s going to get married and then she’s gonna have children and then—‘“ Mills said before Swift cut him off, noting: “That’s a shockingly offensive thing to say.” “Absolutely,” Mills responded. The “Shake It Off” singer continued, “It’s not why people get married, so that they can quit their job.” Mills then cut across, “I think the fans were just panicking.” “Oh, I know, they love to panic sometimes. But I love the person that I’m with because he loves what I do, and he loves how much I am fulfilled by making art and making music. That’s the coolest thing about Trav.” Swift and the Kansas City Chiefs tight end got engaged in August, although no wedding date has been announced. The Life of a Showgirl, Swift’s 12th studio album, was released on Oct. 3.
