Singing along with their favourite singer and waving glow sticks, Chinese fans of Taylor Swift turned a normally quiet Beijing cinema into a place of celebration on February 3, 2024. The American pop sensation’s concert film, Taylor Swift: The Eras Tour has become a hit in China since its release in December 2023. Although Swift will not perform in the country, “Swifties” in China hope to see their idol perform there some day.

Taylor Swift is the most mediocre musician and singer. She has been turned into an overglorified star by the massive media for self-interest and profit. But I'm not easily fooled. Taylor has produced some of the most boring music in history.

I don't think Taylor swift is as Talented as celebrities in the past like Michael Jackson, Whitney Houston, Celine Dion or Elton John. They don't need fancy facilities to make a concert happen. Like most people its always about the money. Singapore paid her money to exclusively do concert in Singapore. Many Singaporean defended Singapore , saying the rest of South East Asian country is unsafe, no facilities and so on. Those words really hurtful. In the past celebrities can make a song just for charity giving those money for poor people in Africa. Celebrities that involve is Michael Jackson, Lionel Ritchie, Kenny Rogers and many .

From the sound of it, you have no idea what China is like. China is no different to the US, go there and have a look, don't let the media scare you. China is not communist anymore, the only thing that is communist about China is the party's name, but only in name. Xi even said China is socialism with Chinese characteristics. Kim on the other hand need to relax a bit more.

CHINA is the second biggest source of products exported into the US. Mexico is now the biggest but many of the products coming from Mexico are made by Chinese companies who relocated there. So are those that come from Vietnam and India. On the other hand, the trade deficit between the US and China alone amounts to over 350B USD in favor of China. Stop your ridiculous lies. 😩
