A brief glance at Google trends on Friday will show you that in the less than 24 hours since she revealed details about the album on boyfriend Travis Kelce’s New Heights podcast, Swift has piqued interest in The Lion King, based on Shakespeare’s Hamlet, and “what is the fate of Ophelia?”
It will also show you Kelce is not the only one who Swift may have inspired to learn the definition of words such as “engulfed” or “esoteric,” at least according to his brother and podcast cohost, Jason Kelce.
