Taylor Swift Celebrates 35th Birthday

Taylor Swift turns 35 on December 13, 2024, celebrating after a record-breaking year, including the conclusion of her Eras Tour, which grossed over $2 billion, making it the highest-grossing tour in history. Known for her affinity for the number 13, Swift's birthday falls on Friday the 13th, a date she embraces as lucky rather than unlucky, often referencing its significance in her life and career. The pop star celebrated her 'birthday eve' by visiting Children's Mercy Hospital in Missouri, where she interacted with young patients and gifted them items related to her tour. Swift also made a surprise appearance at the 2024 Billboard Music Awards, where she accepted multiple awards, calling them an early birthday present. Notably, she shares her special day with other celebrities like Dick Van Dyke, who turns 99, and Jamie Foxx, who turns 57. In a playful homage, The New York Times incorporated Swift-themed Easter eggs into their word search game to commemorate her birthday.
