An executive order that President Trump signed Monday could be good news for Swifties: it aims to crack down on ticket scalpers, making it easier for fans to get their hands on concert tix — and avoid repeating the debacle of November 2022, when it was next to impossible to get Eras Tour tickets.
In other news, a teenage contestant on “American Idol” wowed judge Carrie Underwood on Sunday’s episode, with the country singer and 2005 “Idol” winner pointing out that the 18-year-old had a “Taylor Swift-esque” quality as she belted out an original song.

Taylor Swift reaches another streaming milestone as much-loved song enters the ‘Billions Club’
Taylor Swift reached another significant streaming milestone.
The singer’s 10-minute song “All Too Well (Taylor’s Version)” has officially been streamed one billion times on Spotify, the music company recently confirmed.
Spotify congratulated Swift, 35, on the major accomplishment in a post on X March 29.
“Taylor Swift’s All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylor’s Version) (From The Vault) is officially a member of the #BillionsClub 🧣,” Spotify wrote.
Several fans celebrated the news by flocking to social media.
“I’ve noticed how Taylor’s storytelling hits different, especially in ‘All Too Well.’ It’s like she took a snapshot of heartbreak and turned it into a symphony. No wonder it’s in the #BillionsClub. This track is a masterpiece that keeps on giving. 🎶,” a fan gushed.
“I ALWAYS have 10 minutes to spare!! I’m so happy to be one of that 1 billion persons who listen to this song on repeat 🧣#BillionsClub,” another added.
While the original version of the song was released on her “Red” album in 2012, she released the 10-minute version on her re-recorded “Red (Taylor’s Version)” album in 2021.
This isn’t the first of the pop star’s songs to reach a billion streams.
Her hits “Cruel Summer,” “Blank Space,” “Anti-Hero,” and “Lover” are among some of her tunes to reach this achievement.
