One thing Taylor Swift and I have in common is that we are obsessed with our cats. Swift even played one in "Cats," a movie that we're still trying to recover from as a society. The main difference in our cat obsession is that hers are worth nearly $100 million. According to a recent report from All About Cats, Swift's Scottish fold Olivia Benson is worth $97 million, which she earned from appearing in music videos and commercials with her owner, making her the third richest pet in the world. Until a few days ago, I didn't know that animals could accumulate wealth, but as a lifelong Swiftie, it comes as no surprise that Swift is the mother of the feline 1%. That's just who she is.
Taylor Swift is one of the most successful artists ever for many reasons, with her talent and songwriting abilities being paramount. But, as the first person set to become a billionaire with music as their primary source of income, Swift is more than the woman who consistently writes songs that make me cry. She's a savvy businesswoman, whose girlboss version of feminism is sometimes too much for those who love her most.
