Swift opened up to 'Time' after being named their 2023 Person of the Year about the intense training regimen she used to prepare for the 'Eras Tour.'

In her 2023 Person of the Year interview with Time magazine, Taylor Swift detailed how she physically prepared for her Eras Tour in the months leading up to its launch, and to say we are impressed is an understatement.

The singer said she began training six months before the tour's March kickoff at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.


“I knew this tour was harder than anything I’d ever done before by a long shot."
“I finally, for the very first time, physically prepared correctly.”

So, how did the Grammy winner ready herself for three-plus hours of entertaining tens of thousands of fans each night?

Well, for starters, she ran on the treadmill every single day while singing the entire set list. The entire set list!

"Fast for fast songs, and a jog or a fast walk for slow songs."

Swift also took dance classes and did strength training at the Dogpound gym.

Intense, yes, but she knew the payoff would be worth it.

“I wanted to get it in my bones."
"I wanted to be so over-rehearsed that I could be silly with the fans, and not lose my train of thought. Learning choreography is not my strong suit.”

She also gave up alcohol during those months, with the exception of the Grammy Awards in February.

“I gave myself a fun night for that one."

But then it was back to business.

“Doing that show with a hangover, I don't want to know that world.”

People on social media were floored by Swift's rigorous routine as well as her dedication.











While Swift acknowledged her workout regimen is intense, her stamina is invaluable.

“I know I'm not drinking on tour. I know I'm working out in between shows. I know I'm keeping my strength and stamina up."
"I know I'm going on that stage whether I'm sick, injured, heartbroken, uncomfortable, or stressed."
“That’s part of my identity as a human being now. If someone buys a ticket to my show, I’m going to play it unless we have some sort of force majeure.”

Now that is dedication.

Teacher Stunned After Student Argues That People Shouldn't Have To 'Think Anymore' Thanks To ChatGPT

There's no doubt that ChatGPT and similar tools are growing in relevance and application, and they're growing fast. The problem is that many people, especially younger individuals, seem to struggle with how much they should depend on the tools.

We already knew that ChatGPT could be a problem regarding critical thinking and creativity, so maybe we should have anticipated the mindsets that would develop, snubbing independent thinking when tools like ChatGPT are available.

Earlier this week, Rapunzel was caught on video at DisneySea in Tokyo, but she didn't go viral for her cheery demeanor or her singing voice, which passers-by can hear from the base of her elegant tower. Rather, it was a pair of intruders who put her in the spotlight.

Republicans Slammed For Soulless One-Word Response To Democrats' Trans Day Of Visibility Tweet

According to research by the Williams Institute at UCLA School of Law, transgender people in the United States were over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime based on statistics from 2017-2018. A study by the non-profit Everytown for Gun Safety found the number of trans people murdered in the U.S. nearly doubled between 2017and 2021.

In the last 5–9 years, those figures have only increased as the Republican Party has made trans people the target of many of their political campaigns and legislative actions.

Pete Hegseth Slammed After Calling Off Investigation Into Army Helicopter Fly-By At Kid Rock's House

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized for calling off the U.S. Army's investigation after MAGA musician Kid Rock posted a video of an Army Apache helicopter doing a fly-by at his Nashville home.

The video shows Kid Rock saluting as the aircraft hovers near his property, standing next to a replica Statue of Liberty by his pool. In the brief clip, a helicopter that appears to be an AH-64 Apache—an attack helicopter used by the U.S. Army and National Guard—flies at low altitude near his estate in Whites Creek.
