Taylor Swift might be in the superstar stratosphere where her name alone outshines the rest, but she is not just chasing her dreams—she is sprinkling magic dust on countless others along the way. Sure, her musical reputation is already wearing a crown big enough to put others to shame. But she is all about recognizing star power, even if it comes from a nine-year-old future sensation. Flash forward to now, and what sticks is not just the fame or fortune, but the love and kisses the star once received, enough to become the next big thing.

Swift may have turned heads with her PDAs with Travis Kelce all this time, but this swoon-worthy memory blows all that out of the water.

During a recent stop on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Maisy Stella took a trip down memory lane to the 2013 Country Music Awards, thanks to Kimmel's prompt. Back then, she and her sister wowed with a performance of Taylor Swift’s ‘You Belong With Me’ right before the pop sensation. The tribute made Swift turn Stella into a walking canvas of red lipstick and Kimmel could not help but comment on the avalanche of superstar kisses as she quipped, “I had red lipstick all over me!”

Stella reminisced about her bath time battles, where she would cling to anything in sight while her parents tried to wrangle her into the tub. The Canadian singer playfully described bath time as a “forceful” affair because she could not bear to part with those red stamps of love she had earned. Meanwhile, Kimmel, the forever jokester, could not help but bring Travis Kelce into the mix, teasing that Swift might not have smothered her boyfriend with as many kisses. But Stella just soaked it all in, rocking that proud, oh-I-know expression.

Stella pointed out how Swift worked her magic with just one gesture about a decade ago, and guess what? Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg recently chimed in to share how his daughter had her sights set on becoming just like Swift, too!

Tech tycoon Mark Zuckerberg recently dropped by the Acquired podcast and shared a heartwarming moment he had with his daughter after attending a Taylor Swift concert. His daughter, August, declared her dream of growing up to be just like the pop star. But Zuckerberg was all about that reality check. When the podcast hosts asked for his advice for budding founders, he emphasized the importance of originality. 

Remembering that chat with August Zuckerberg, he recounted telling her, “you can’t.” It gave her a moment to think, but she bounced back, saying “when I grow up, I want people to want to be like August Chan Zuckerberg!” So while everyone talks about Swift’s trailblazing vibe, this little exchange shows how her energy inspires others to blaze their own trails, proving that her magic is, after all, contagious.
