The frenzy for Taylor Swift has reached unexpected limits. The Pennsylvania singer-songwriter, producer, actress, and businesswoman is at the best moment of her career, which shows in her numbers, awards, and also in the environment. In addition to the millions of Swifties who follow the artist daily to support her in all her projects, a new initiative is taking shape in Arizona to thank Swift with a unique gesture for having chosen Glendale, Arizona to begin her tour “The Eras Tour”.
According to Fox 10 channel, the mayor of Glendale, a town of just over 200,000 inhabitants located in Maricopa county, would temporarily change the name of the town to Taylor Swift to honor the international superstar during the two days when her new tour will stop in her municipality. In other words, Glendale will be renamed after the idol of the Swifties on March 17th and 18th.
The announcement of this unusual nomenclature change will be made official on Monday, March 13, by Jerry Weiers, the city’s mayor. Before that, the town hall wanted to warn its neighbors that, although they know that it is something very unusual, it is a decision that does not scare them. “We know very well that she is one of the most influential artists of her generation and we write our own love story for her and greeting every Swiftie in style,” they said from the council.
In addition, the mayor’s team assured that along with the announcement, several recommendations will also come about traffic in the city during the days that Taylor Swift is there. The arrival of the singer-songwriter should revolutionize Glendale, as much as the rest of the county.
Taylor Swift, at the peak of her career
Taylor Swift is at the top of her game. The artist has put aside the battles to recover the rights to her songs, which cost her a lot to win to become the true owner of her music and her destiny. And it shows.
With the release of her album “Midnights” last October, the singer-songwriter from Pennsylvania has succeeded in not only making the public fall in love but also breaking various records around the world. Just a few hours after its launch, “Midnights” became the most listened album of the moment on Spotify, and “Anti-Hero,” one of her singles, became the song with the most plays. In addition, in November 2022, less than a month after its release, Taylor became the first artist to occupy the entire top 10 of the Hot 100 with “Anti-Hero” at the top of the chart, a feat that was only partially achieved by the Beatles, who occupied the top 5 in 1964.
There is no doubt that this is the Swift era, and she knows it well, which is why she wanted to celebrate it with her incomparable “The Eras Tour,” which unexpectedly will begin in “Taylor Swift Town.”
