Taylor Swift Releases Video For Pro-LGBTQ Song, You Need To Calm Down

By Aaron Brophy

Pop star Taylor Swift has released a star-studded music video to support her pro-LGBTQ song You Need To Calm Down.


Throughout the video, Swift and her friends are confronted by an angry, toothless, and dirty anti-gay mob of people. The biting track features Swift in a brightly-coloured, rainbow-flagged trailer park with a cast of partying friends including, amongst others, Ellen DeGeneres, the cast of Queer Eye, Ryan Reynolds and in a surprisingly symbolic "feud"-ending gesture, a French fries outfit-wearing Katy Perry to compliment Swift in a hamburger outfit.

You Need to Calm Down was released to coincide with Pride Month which started on June 1.  – Continue reading Aaron Brophy’s feature and watch the video on the Samaritanmag website.

Phoebe Bridgers Is ‘Lost,’ but Fans Can Find Her on Newly Announced 2026 World Tour With Dates in Toronto and Vancouver

The news comes on the heels of her top-secret show at Madison Square Garden.

Phoebe Bridgers is going on tour — but for real this time. After spending the past couple of months doing last-minute pop-up shows across the United States, ending with a sold-out acoustic set at Madison Square Garden in New York City, the singer revealed Friday (June 5) that she’s embarking on a larger-scale trek this fall.

Announced ahead of Bridgers’ highly anticipated next album, The Lost Tour 2026 will kick off Sept. 15 in Indianapolis. From there, she’ll weave through cities in the United States and Canada — including Chicago, New York City, Toronto, Boston, Nashville and Los Angeles — before heading overseas for a run of performances in Dublin, London, Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin and more European hot spots.
