Breaking News: Ramy Youssef Believes Taylor Swift ‘EASILY COULD HANG IN COMEDY’ And He Explained The Reasons Behind His Words…

Taylor Swift has proven she can do a lot. Of course, she’s a generational songwriter and performer.

The “All Too Well” short film she directed was well-received. She has a bit of an acting resume in movies like Cats and Amsterdam. Now, Ramy Youssef believes Swift could excel if she entered his world of stand-up comedy.

In an interview with Entertainment Tonight at the 2024 Oscars last night (March 10), Youssef was asked about Swift attending one of his stand-up shows, what that was like, and if he got to meet her. He responded, “I did, I got to hang with Taylor a few times, she’s incredibly kind. Really funny, easily could hang in comedy. Easily could hang in comedy.” The interviewers seemed surprised by that, so they asked for Youssef’s

reasoning and he answered, “Timing. Music’s timing and she’s just got that kind of timing.”

Stand-up comedy is of course a different beast than anything else Swift has done before, so who knows how well she would do in that arena. At the very least, though, you know she’d put in the work if stand-up ended up being something she chose to pursue. Maybe she could open for herself on The Eras Tour with a tight five?

Netflix changed the game when they shifted from mailing something called “DVDs” to sending the shows straight to our TV back in 2007. They changed it again when they made it clear that they weren’t content to stream other production companies’ movies and TV series — aiming a moonshot at making their own original programming in the hopes that they’d become a dominant studio as well as the spot where you can binge old episodes of Frasier.
Make their mark, they did. Within only a few years, they became a powerhouse of original programming, due to a massive budget and the ability to say yes to some unusual ideas that became top Netflix series.
