Taylor Swift is on her way to world dominance with her impeccable marketing strategies to promote her music and stellar penmanship. Currently, she is on the ‘Eras Tour, which started in March 2023 and will complete its North America leg in August 2023. The songstress has already become the second-richest female singer thanks to the tour. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has invited Taylor Swift to be a part of it.
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts And Sciences has invited several artists and executives to be a part of the esteemed body. It includes several recipients and nominees from the 95th Academy Awards. The Academy has chosen actors like Paul Mescal, Austin Butler, Stephanie Hsu, and others. But they have shortlisted a handful from the music industry to be a part of it. Taylor Swift’s invitation, however, has irked a certain group of netizens.

Taylor Swift Is Finally Getting The Recognition That The Academy Denied
The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has invited 398 new artists, streaming giant executives, and producers. This decision has increased the number of members by 152, making it 10,817. Along with acting and direction, the Academy has also chosen many stalwarts from the music industry to be a part of it.
Taylor Swift is among the music mavericks who are invited to join. The Oscars nominated Swift for her song ‘Where the Crawdads Sing’ from ‘Cats.’ However, for a considerable period, the Academy snubbed the artist. It did not nominate the artist in the ‘Best Original Song’ category for ‘Carolina or the Best Live Action Short category for ‘All Too Well.’

Netizens Are Not Happy With The Artist Being A Part Of The Academy
While the Swifties are rejoicing in the Academy’s decision to invite Taylor Swift, there is a certain group that is criticizing the decision. A user said, “They just be letting anyone in.” Another user wrote, “I can name at least ten other celebrities that deserve it more.”
Feel like they let some people in based on how famous they’re and not because they deserve it.

What a cool idea to bring such irrelevant names to be part of the Academy. It's not like the Oscars are becoming more irrelevant each year and they need something to bring credibility back. Applause to the "genius" who came up with this idea
