A clip shared online shows her repeatedly saying, \u201cTaylor Swift is engaged!\u201d before excitedly adding, \u201cOh, it\u2019s huge! The ring is ginormous! This is so exciting!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Swift and Kelce announced their engagement on Instagram<\/strong>, sharing a lighthearted post that read, \u201cYour English teacher and your gym teacher are getting married,\u201d with a dynamite emoji. The pop superstar and Kansas City Chiefs tight end have been in the public eye since going public with their relationship in 2023, often appearing together at NFL games and events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rinaldi embraced the unexpected breaking news moment with enthusiasm.<\/strong>&nbsp;She humorously likened herself to Paul Revere, exclaiming, \u201cThis is a very exciting moment for me in my professional career, because I get to announce that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce are engaged!\u201d Her spontaneous reaction quickly circulated online, drawing both amusement and support from Swifties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>In a surprising twist, former FBI Director James Comey also found himself in the Swift-related spotlight this week.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>AdvertisementIn a video posted to his Substack, Comey revealed he\u2019s a longtime Swift fan, saying her music helps him deal with the stress of modern politics. He cited songs like \u201cAll Too Well\u201d and \u201cExile\u201d as personal favorites.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Comey also praised Swift\u2019s recent podcast appearance<\/strong>, where she encouraged listeners to guard their energy and not give power to negativity. Echoing that sentiment, Comey said her words resonated deeply with him, especially in the context of political discourse. He added that while political trolling can be humorous, it risks lowering the national tone, something he believes Swift rises above.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CBS News White House correspondent Olivia Rinaldi went viral Tuesday after her stunned reaction to Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce\u2019s engagement was caught on camera.&nbsp;Rinaldi, who was&#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":1904,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13396","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13396","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=13396"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13396\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":13397,"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13396\/revisions\/13397"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/1904"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=13396"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=13396"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/goodarticles.info\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=13396"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
