Time Magazine Names Taylor Swift The 2023 Person Of The Year

Time Magazine Names Taylor Swift The 2023 Person Of The Year 

Time Magazine has not wasted any time crowning Taylor Swift the Person of The Year for 2023. Global music icon Taylor Swift has been a news staple throughout the year. She is now all set to grace the red border periodical's cover girl, adding yet another feather to her hat. She keeps proving each time that she is not going out of style any time soon. Swift has been among the biggest musical acts around the world with her shrewd business acumen. She is seamlessly helming an entertainment empire that has collected $1 billion according to several estimates. Time editor Sam Lansky writes the piece. He said, "But this year, something shifted. To discuss her movements felt like discussing politics or the weather —a language spoken so widely it needed no context. She became the main character of the world." Swift has been performing to huge crowds in her ongoing Eras Tour which will be continuing next year with international dates in cities such as Paris, London and Tokyo. One company has estimated that her U.S. leg of the tour alone could generate nearly $5 billion in consumer spending. Additionally she has released a concert film called Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour which is a 3-hour IMAX movie culled from her Los Angeles performances that allows more fans to witness the show. The distributor, AMC theaters earned more than $250 million on the film as of late last month. Swift's sky-rocketing success both on and off screen will be to speak nothing of her personal life that has equally taken center stage. Her latest tryst with Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been highlighted more than ever before. "When you say a relationship is public," Swift told Time, "that means I'm going to see him do what he loves, we're showing up for each other, other people are there and we don't care." Swift has also inspired a big boost in voter registration with a single post on Instagram, she also played a part in the Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on Ticketmaster's practices while making billboard history simultaneously. All in a year's work and it isn't even over yet.

Cider Goes From Viral Sensation To Global Fashion Force With Gen Z Insights!

In 2020, Yu Oppel co-founded Cider, a clothing brand with a modest marketing background. Fast forward three years, and Cider, having secured $140 million in funding, hit the spotlight when K-pop sensation Jennie from BLACKPINK wore a $16 floral top, turning it into a best-seller. However, Cider Clothing isn't relying solely on viral moments. The brand, shipping to 130+ countries, recently opened its first pop-up store in New York's SoHo, marking its venture into brick-and-mortar. Chief Marketing Officer Yu Oppel emphasized the role of Gen Z employees in shaping the brand's global marketing strategy. Cider's global approach extends beyond pop-ups, focusing on worldwide out-of-home advertising and fashion events. The brand has hosted over 20 events in cities like Los Angeles, New York, London, Berlin, and Mexico City, featuring games, DJs, and influencer collaborations. Clare Thompson, Cider's Global Head of Marketing, highlighted the brand's authentic engagement with influencers, valuing their unique representation of the diverse Gen Z customer base. In a recent music festival-themed campaign, Cider collaborated with NYC-based influencer Haley Kalil, leveraging her 3 million Instagram followers. The brand utilized digital content and city-wide posters, showcasing its dedication to diverse influencer partnerships. Cider doesn't just stop at traditional social media engagement. With 5 million Instagram followers, the brand maintains a public Discord server connecting with over 15,000 fans. This tight-knit community provides valuable feedback and fosters a sense of belonging among consumers. Discord played a crucial role in the launch of Cider's plus-size line, Curve, now constituting over 15% of the brand's business. Expanding its online presence, Cider sells through platforms like TikTok Shop in the UK and is venturing into the US market. The brand's 600-strong team across 15 countries, many of whom are Gen Z, offers unique insights into regional cultures and trends, allowing Cider to tailor its approach. As Cider's New York City pop-up opens its doors, the brand eyes permanent stores in the US, marking another milestone in its journey from viral success to a global fashion force shaped by the pulse of Gen Z.

NFL's Roger Goodell Praises Las Vegas Transformation

NFL’s Roger Goodell Praises Las Vegas Transformation 

NFL commissioner Roger Goodell, spoke at a Las Vegas Super Bowl LVIII Host Committee brunch in Tuesday and he praised the city's shift in image in the last few years which has led them to land the league's championship game. Goodell also touched on other topics like the game's global appeal in a 25-minute sit down with Las Vegas Raiders president Sandra Douglass Morgan that also included appearances by other sports executives from premier leagues such as the UFC, the NHL's Golden Knights, the WNBA's Aces, Formula 1 and the NBA. Goodell addressed the crowd and said, "You really have become Sports Town USA. You really have, and that vision was set out, that vision was clear. We wanted to be a part of it, and I think when that happened, everything seemed to change and the stadium obviously is a key component of that. It's one of the reasons we struggled in Oakland is being able to get a long-term stadium that would work for us. Great news is this is home for us, so we're glad to be here." https://twitter.com/stevemcomedy/status/1732161471310901540?s=20 He added, "I'm going to credit this community because I think you've changed the city on a global basis. It is an extraordinary entertainment city and I think people see this city in a different way. Sports may be part of that, but we're all part of, I think every one of the sports that are represented here today would say that you've changed that, you've changed that narrative, you've changed that image, you've changed that platform. And I think, I probably would not have said 10 years ago, that I would see myself sitting here for a Super Bowl. But I'm not surprised." When Douglass Morgan asked whether Las Vegas would be in a "rotation" for the Suoer Bowl, Goodell laughed."We don't have a rotation of Super Bowls," he said, "but I have no doubt this is going to be a successful Super Bowl. We'll be back here a lot for Super Bowls."

OpenAI Hires Back Sam Altman, The Previous CEO After Employees Rebels

OpenAI Hires Back Sam Altman, The Previous CEO After Employees Rebels

Sam Altman, the previous CEO of OpenAI, returns after he was overthrown from the company by the last board members, including D’Angelo. Even though there was no specific information given as to why Altman was fired from the company, he is being hired back. The decision taken by the board of directors of OpenAI last Friday shocked the Artificial Intelligence industry, especially because it was Altman who was the face and one of the company's co-founders. The startup organization, OpenAI, faced internal conflict as another co-founder, Greg Brockman, resigned as the president. Furthermore, a board member and fellow co-founder of OpenAI posted on X about how he deeply regretted his decision to fire Sam Altman from his position as CEO. The post on the social media platform seemed like a mending of the bridge and trying to bring him back to the company. With all these developments among the senior management, the 770 startup employees also brazenly signed a letter. In the letter, the employees called for the previous CEO Altman's return and the previous board's resignation. On the other hand, Microsoft’s approach to hiring Altman might not be happening anymore after this development. The CEO Satya Nadella at Microsoft announced on Monday on X about the joining of Altman and Brockman to a new advanced team. Considering Microsoft is one of the largest investors of OpenAI, they believe that Altman will be working for them under any condition. He also confirmed that he is open to Altman going back to OpenAI as long as the board's problems at OpenAI are resolved along with the smooth governance of the organization. Initially, OpenAI was co-founded by Altman to benefit humanity by creating smarter content; however, it later became a profitable business. He also shouted out to the employees at OpenAI regarding their petition in support of Altman. Further, the CEO offered jobs that matched the current job profile and responsibilities of all employees at OpenAI. Learn More About: Is AI Changing The Insurance Sector?
