Taylor Swift has been tapped as the first-ever global ambassador for…
This year’s RSD will take place on April 23, with the official list of this year’s RSD releases coming soon, including an as-yet-unannounced title from Swift.
“I’m very proud to be this year’s Ambassador for Record Store Day,” Swift said in a statement.
“The places where we go to browse and explore and discover music new and old have always been sacred to me. Record stores are so important because they help to perpetuate and foster music-loving as a passion.
They create settings for live events. They employ people who adore music thoroughly and purely.
Those people and shops have had a rough few years and we need to support these small businesses more now than ever to make sure they can stay alive, stay eccentric, and stay individual. It’s been a true joy for me to watch vinyl sales grow in the past few years and we, the artists, have the fans to thank for this pleasant surprise. Happy Record Store Day, everyone! Stay safe out there.”

The announcement noted that during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, Swift “took her support a step further, directing fans to record stores around the country where they could find autographed CDs, bringing much needed traffic and attention at a time of business uncertainty. She also then made a quiet, thoughtful gesture to a store she knows well, Grimey’s New and Pre-loved Music in Nashville.”
“We’re thrilled to learn that Taylor Swift is our 2022 Record Store Day Ambassador!” said Anna Lundy and Doyle Davis of Grimey’s in a statement.
“Swift has shown her love and support for independent record stores by not only supporting our shop specifically during the dark, early days of the pandemic, when she directly donated to help us support our staff, but also by steering her eager, excited, and dedicated fans to independent record stores, places that many of them visited for the first time while in search of her signed CDs.
As Swift has grown as an artist, we’ve watched her fans grow with her and have been delighted to see her taking control of her recordings and working with musicians like Jack Antonoff and Aaron Dessner, artists whose music has resonated in shops like ours for years. We can’t think of a better choice for RSD Ambassador for 2022!”
Swift has supported RSD a number of times in the past, offering up special versions of her albums 1989 and Speak Now, and a 7″ vinyl single version of Haim’s single “Gasoline.”

“He’s not my fan He’s my husband” Carrie Underwood Doesn’t Ask Her Husband for Advice About…
“He’s not my fan He’s my husband” Carrie Underwood Doesn’t Ask Her Husband for Advice About…
If Carrie Underwood wanted advice about how to play hockey, she’d probably ask her husband, Mike Fisher. But when it comes to her Grammy-winning country music, she said he’s not the first person she goes to. Sometimes, he only hears her songs once they’re out, and everyone else listens to them, too. And when asked why that is, she explained it’s pretty simple: “He’s not my fan. He’s my husband.”
Underwood married Fisher, then a player for the National Hockey League, in 2010. They had their first son in 2015, and Fisher retired in 2018. Then, they had their second son, Jacob, in 2019. The family just celebrated his fourth birthday.
In an interview with ET Canada, Underwood revealed Fisher isn’t someone she turns to for music and career advice. “Nope. Nope,” she said, shaking her head when asked. She explained that while the former NHL player would be “brutally honest” with her, she added, “He’s not my fan. He’s my husband.”

Since her music is something she shares with her fans, she said she’d recorded songs he had only heard when they were finished. “When I’m making music, I’m doing what I love,” she explained. “Obviously, you want that to translate to fans.”
Underwood added that she usually values what Fisher says but noted, “In this context, not so much.”

She also pointed out that she’s not disrespecting her marriage, as he doesn’t ask her for advice about playing hockey. If he did, she guessed, “I’d be like, ‘I don’t know. You looked good out on the ice.’”
While talking to ET Canada, Underwood said she and Fisher have very different musical tastes, confessing, “I don’t know if he would be a Carrie Underwood fan if he was not married to me.”
That is one of a few areas where the couple agreed to disagree. For example, “Carrie does not like hunting one bit,” Fisher shared about his wife, who doesn’t eat meat (Mike and Carrie: God & Country).
“If he could be a vegan/vegetarian,” Underwood added, “my life would be almost perfect.”

Carrie Underwood blocked Billy Eichner for tweeting this nasty s*** about her
On Sept. 27, 2022, Eichner appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen to promote his movie, Bros. During the appearance, a fan asked Eichner if he ever figured out why Underwood blocked him on Twitter.
“Carrie Underwood blocked me on Twitter, which I consider a great honor,” Eichner said. “It was one of the great thrills of my life. You know Jesus take, Jesus, follow me back on Twitter I guess I don’t know.”
“Were you tweeting nasty s*** about her?” Cohen asked.
“I think I was — OK, there was a thing where she during the height of COVID she posted a, re-tweeted a speech by some Republican guy saying that kids shouldn’t have to wear masks in schools. Kind of letting her political views be known for the first time. And I guess I made some jokes about that. That went viral on Twitter and I guess she didn’t like that,” Eichner explained.

In August 2021, Underwood liked a tweet by a political commentator named Matt Walsh. This immediately drew backlash from fans.
“… I don’t care who carries votes for because she very clearly is conservative. My problem is that it’s incredibly selfish to not wear a mask. Wearing a Mask is the SIMPLEST way to show human compassion during this thing. I’m so over anti-maskers,” one fan wrote on Reddit.

Another fan argued on Reddit, “She’s PRO parent’s choice for their child. There’s a difference. There’s plenty of people that are for masks + vaccine but having the choice.”
Amidst all the debate surrounding Underwood’s Twitter likes, Eichner shared that the country singer blocked him in a tweet. The comedian posted a screenshot of Underwood’s profile that showed he was blocked with the caption, “ICONIC.”
