White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt has revealed her 2025 Spotify Wrapped, which includes Taylor Swift among her top five artists despite President Donald Trump's long-running animosity towards the singer.
Leavitt, 28, shared a glimpse of her listening habits on Instagram Story on Wednesday. Topping her list was country star Morgan Wallen, followed by Christian artists Forrest Frank, Brandon Lake and Anne Wilson. Swift rounded out the top five.
Trump has repeatedly criticised Swift since she endorsed his 2024 presidential rival, Kamala Harris, writing on Truth Social, “I HATE TAYLOR SWIFT.” He later wrote that she was “no longer ‘HOT’” after his earlier comments.
Leavitt is not the only person close to Trump with an appreciation for Swift. His granddaughter Arabella, 14, is a known Swiftie, celebrating her 13th birthday with a Swift-themed cake in 2024 and attending the Eras Tour in Miami with her mother, Ivanka Trump.
Trump himself once described Swift as “unusually beautiful” and praised her star quality in a 2024 book, but his tone shifted after her public backing of Harris ahead of the 2024 election.
