WEBVTT - MINI: Taylor Watch

0:00:01.760 --> 0:00:05.760
<v Speaker 1>Two days away to Australia and Melburn goes into Meldown.

0:00:05.800 --> 0:00:09.480
<v Speaker 1>Taylor Swift this Friday kicks off our Australian leg of

0:00:09.520 --> 0:00:14.320
<v Speaker 1>the Worldwide Megator Eras I was reading her worldwide Tour

0:00:14.440 --> 0:00:18.639
<v Speaker 1>era ends November this year, she will it will be

0:00:18.680 --> 0:00:22.000
<v Speaker 1>the highest grossing tour ever. It was previously held by

0:00:22.040 --> 0:00:24.239
<v Speaker 1>Elton John on his farewell tour. And this was Elton

0:00:24.280 --> 0:00:27.560
<v Speaker 1>John who's been around for seven decades right entertaining people.

0:00:27.600 --> 0:00:30.479
<v Speaker 1>So he's saying goodbye after seven day, seven decades of

0:00:30.520 --> 0:00:33.280
<v Speaker 1>amazing albums and hits. Right, it was a billion dollars

0:00:33.280 --> 0:00:36.040
<v Speaker 1>he grows on that tour, which is unbelievable. Taylor will

0:00:36.080 --> 0:00:40.000
<v Speaker 1>do one point seven billion in November. It is unbelievable

0:00:40.040 --> 0:00:42.839
<v Speaker 1>what big businesses it is, and just how this country

0:00:43.000 --> 0:00:45.959
<v Speaker 1>is at fever pitch with Taylor Swift. Every day I'm

0:00:45.960 --> 0:00:49.360
<v Speaker 1>getting smashed with various companies right in their press releases

0:00:49.400 --> 0:00:52.800
<v Speaker 1>are obviously jumping on the Taylor bandwagon. Yesterday, my favorite

0:00:52.800 --> 0:00:57.640
<v Speaker 1>one came from David Wolfe, media partner for Salvo's headline

0:00:57.720 --> 0:01:00.360
<v Speaker 1>Salvo Stores and Taylor Swift. I thought, what's going on here?

0:01:00.840 --> 0:01:04.760
<v Speaker 1>Are they providing all the years outfits. So what a

0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:08.319
<v Speaker 1>great story. This deserves your ears. Salvo Stores and Taylor

0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:12.000
<v Speaker 1>Swift encouraging Australians to thrift their concert outfit to save

0:01:12.160 --> 0:01:15.520
<v Speaker 1>big dollars. Great idea. I haven't picked out my outfit yet,

0:01:16.000 --> 0:01:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Salvos in Hampton. I'll be rocking by today to get

0:01:19.040 --> 0:01:22.800
<v Speaker 1>kitted out for myself of Grandpa's nineteen seventy's wedding suit.

0:01:25.000 --> 0:01:29.160
<v Speaker 1>So on Taylor watch today. Taylor Swift makes history again

0:01:29.240 --> 0:01:32.240
<v Speaker 1>becomes the first pop musician to be referred referenced in

0:01:32.280 --> 0:01:35.520
<v Speaker 1>an official statement by the Reserve Bank of Australia. This

0:01:35.640 --> 0:01:37.640
<v Speaker 1>is actually warning news for everyone hoping the interest rates

0:01:37.680 --> 0:01:40.520
<v Speaker 1>are going to come down. Not Soul Australia. She made

0:01:40.600 --> 0:01:42.920
<v Speaker 1>history of the Grammys is the press release, and now

0:01:42.959 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 1>just two days later, Taylor Swift has done it again,

0:01:44.920 --> 0:01:47.559
<v Speaker 1>become the first artist to be mentioned by the RBA.

0:01:47.920 --> 0:01:51.840
<v Speaker 1>It comes as Governor Michelle Bullerch unfortunately surname commentated on

0:01:51.920 --> 0:01:57.280
<v Speaker 1>the threat of swift flation, with Taylor's concerts expected to

0:01:57.320 --> 0:02:01.000
<v Speaker 1>cause the rise in goods and services. It up for

0:02:01.040 --> 0:02:08.480
<v Speaker 1>any reason. Seismologist on alert as Taylor Swift concerts this

0:02:08.600 --> 0:02:14.600
<v Speaker 1>weekend expected to register earthquakes. They're keeping at four and

0:02:14.720 --> 0:02:18.600
<v Speaker 1>a quote Swift Cakes, Swift Quakes with the American singer

0:02:19.760 --> 0:02:22.600
<v Speaker 1>that might be regising seismic activity of up to twenty

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:26.360
<v Speaker 1>point three magnitude earthquake in some cities. And this is

0:02:26.400 --> 0:02:31.239
<v Speaker 1>another great one. Bonza Airlines, Bonza Airlines. I've seen that

0:02:31.480 --> 0:02:38.639
<v Speaker 1>record boost. She's coming over on Bonsa, isn't she loves Bonsa?

0:02:39.240 --> 0:02:42.800
<v Speaker 1>She loves once she's flying over. And then my dad

0:02:42.840 --> 0:02:45.560
<v Speaker 1>was watching the news yesterday in the UK. It was

0:02:45.600 --> 0:02:48.400
<v Speaker 1>the BBC Big T Time News, right millions we watched

0:02:48.400 --> 0:02:52.000
