Joe Biden confused Taylor Swift with Britney Spears while speaking at the White House’s annual turkey pardoning ceremony, which also took place on the president’s 81st birthday. While pardoning two turkeys, Liberty and Bell, Biden erroneously named Spears while referencing Swift’s ongoing Era’s tour.
“Just to get here, Liberty and Bell had to beat some tough odds and competition. They had to work hard, to show patience, and be willing to travel over 1,000 miles,” Biden said Monday. “You could say it’s even harder than getting a ticket to the Renaissance tour or, or Britney’s tour. She’s down, it’s kind of warm in Brazil right now.”
