Will Taylor Swift be the surprise guest at the last night of the 2024 Democratic National Convention at the United Center in Chicago?
There are plenty of insane theories and immense begging on social media platforms as fans are feverishly scouring the interwebs for any inkling of where Tay-Tay may currently be and where she might be headed.
The problem? The jet tracking accounts that used to provide up-to-the-minute locations for her private jets aren't current anymore. (Also? Don't stalk celebrities.)
Country group The Chicks and global pop star megastar Pink are slated to perform Thursday on DNC Day 4.
Where is Taylor Swift? Will Taylor Swift sing at 2024 DNC Day 4 in Chicago?
Unknown. Rumors have flown and some people have suggested her jet was tracked near Chicago's O'Hare International Airport, but nothing has been confirmed and Deadline reported that it wasn't happening.
“Everybody loves Taylor, but having her here would overshadow everything,” a DNC insider told Deadline. “Think about it, no one would remember a word the Vice President said in her acceptance speech. All the headlines would be about Swift.”
The latest info from the Taylor Swift Jets (Tracking) account says her Falcon 7x left London, England, where she just finished her Eras Tour with eight nights at Wembley Stadium, to arrive in Nashville, Tennessee, on Wednesday.
Nashville's less than two hours away from Chicago, and Swift has no other public appearances scheduled. But after a massive tour across the U.S., Asia, Australia and Europe, the multi-Grammy-winning singer-songwriter surely wants some downtime.
What happened to the Taylor Swift Jet Tracker?
Jack Sweeney, a computer science student at UCF, made a name for himself setting up jet-tracking accounts on social media with the locations of several prominent billionaires such as Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Mark Cuban, Donald Trump, Bill Gates, the rapper Drake, Russian oligarchs and Swift.
Along with departing and arriving cities, he also often appended the cost of fuel used and amount of CO² emissions created. The information from his accounts has been used to shame celebrities and other famous people for their "disproportionately high" impact on climate change.
Last December, Swift attorney Katie Wright Morrone sent Sweeney a cease-and-desist letter threatening "legal remedies" if he didn't stop "stalking and harassing" her and causing her and her family a "constant state of fear for her personal safety."
“While this may be a game to you, or an avenue that you hope will earn you wealth or fame, it is a life-or-death matter for our Client,” Morrone wrote in a letter Sweeney shared Monday.
Sweeney refused, saying he had done nothing wrong and the information was already out there.
X owner Elon Musk shut down Sweeney's tracking accounts, which Musk called "assassination coordinates," on the platform formerly known as Twitter and added a new rule banning real-time travel information. Sweeney replaced his accounts with next-day information instead but maintained real-time accounts on other social media sites.
Has Taylor Swift endorsed Donald Trump or Kamala Harris as a political candidate?
No. Or at least, not yet.
Although Swift has criticized former President Donald Trump in the past and endorsed President Joe Biden in 2020, she has not said anything about this year's race aside from asking her fans to vote in the Super Tuesday primaries in March.
However, fans wonder if Swift might be provoked to speak after a social media post shared by Trump on Sunday depicting what appeared to be an AI-generated image of Swift dressed as Uncle Sam with the text, "Taylor wants you to vote for Donald Trump," along with real and AI-generated images of young women wearing "Swifties for Trump shirts.
