The singer’s Instagram post endorsing Kamala Harris for president earned recognition for capturing the political and cultural zeitgeist.
- Taylor Swift's Instagram post from September, where she referred to herself as a 'childless cat lady,' was named Yale University's most notable quote of 2024.
- The phrase was part of Swift's endorsement of Kamala Harris for president and referenced a comment made by Vice President-elect J.D. Vance in 2021 criticizing Democrats.
- Yale clarified that the quotes on the list were chosen for their cultural impact rather than eloquence or admiration.
- Swift's quote was the only non-political remark to make the top five of Yale's annual list, which also included statements from Joe Biden, Donald Trump, and others.
- This recognition comes as Swift continues her record-breaking Eras Tour and secures her position as one of the most influential artists of the 21st century.
