On Barbara Kornfeld
She advances by dancing perfect choreographies in glittery dresses, the text resonates lightly: “I stay out too late, got nothing in my brain; that’s what people say hmm hmm” (“I'm out late, I have nothing in my brain: that's what they say about me, hmm”). This alone should provide some clue that Dr. Taylor Swift, who received an honorary degree from New York University in 2022, he has plenty of gray matter. Even his dress code, although it seems random, is studied down to the smallest detail, never vulgar, transparent or excessively low-cut.
The thirty-four year old, singer, musician, composer, performer is currently the head of one of the companies capable of significantly moving the economic impact of a nation when he decides to stop there with one or more dates of his Eras Tour, in conclusion in this period. Taylor is aware that he is on top of the world with clear ideas, identity of the influence it exerts on the masses: despite that, she doesn't have star-like attitudes and - when she gets off the stage - it's common to see her dressed as a girl "next door", in love with Italy, so much so that he is looking for a house on Lake Como, having given a mandate for an amount ranging between 3 and the seven million euros.
Many have wondered whether he will take a position in view of the next US presidential elections, now that Kamala Harris is running for president – instead of Joe Biden – and will have to face Donald Trump.
Already in 2018 Taylor had expressed political opinions, declaring that they intended to vote for candidates who defended human rights, regardless of sexual orientation, race and gender: so that every form of discrimination was eliminated and the dignity of Americans was respected. The reaction of fans all over the world was explosive: European young people from Generation Z also identified with his message, much more attentive to political issues than their Millennial predecessors.
He did it again this year, urging - through his social profile - fans to exercise their right to vote with the same vigor with which they "make their voices heard" when they participate in his concerts. Result? In the immediate hours following his appeal, examining the target of eighteen year olds, one hundred and fifteen percent more children registered on the voter lists compared to the previous US presidential elections.
So, for a politician it is better to have her for than against. After all - as she herself said in her graduation speech, in Yankee Stadium in NY: “Motivation is fundamental, we must not believe those who make us feel inadequate, she herself recounts in her lyrics a series of failures in various areas of existence and this brings her closer to the masses. But those who don't give in then manage to pursue their goals".
Clearly if he decided to take a clear position during the US election campaign, it would involve a large part of the electorate: Taylor seems to please everywhere, even the English royals, usually used to taking center stage, they paid tribute to her at Wembley Stadium, grateful for the millionaire revenue brought in by his eight concerts with ninety thousand attendees per evening, staggering figures.
The rest of Europe and especially Southern Italy fantasize about the possible visit of the Queen of Pop. The mayor of Castelnuovo Cilento, in the province of Salerno, he can't rest and looks for a way to invite her through the Italian organization that organized the Milanese dates: in fact, it seems that the girl has ancestors here too, precisely his great-great-grandmother Rosa Galzerano, in Baldi in 1860. It would be enough for Taylor's glittery boot to tread the soil of this small Mediterranean village for half an hour and it would change its destiny.
