No \u2026\u201d Swift replied, audibly taken aback.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">When Mills explained that some fans worried marriage and family might mark the end of her career, Swift didn\u2019t let it slide: \u201cA shockingly offensive thing to say,\u201d she replied with a laugh. \u201cThat\u2019s not why people get married \u2014 so they can quit their job.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Swift went on to praise Kelce for supporting her artistry: \u201cI love the person that I am with because he loves what I do \u2026 that\u2019s the coolest thing about Travis. He is so passionate about what he does that me being passionate about what I do \u2026 it connects us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">As someone who\u2019s covered entertainment for years, from red carpets to celebrity interviews, I\u2019ve heard my share of awkward questions \u2014 but I can honestly say I\u2019d never have asked that one. The implication that a woman\u2019s professional drive expires with marriage is outdated, sexist, and, yes, \u201cshockingly offensive.\u201d Male artists aren\u2019t asked if their careers will end once they propose or have kids.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Swift handled it with grace, good humor (I don&#8217;t know that I would have managed even the faintest chuckle), and strength \u2014 and in doing so, she reminded all of us that personal milestones shouldn\u2019t require professional apologies.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source creators.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During a recent BBC Radio 2 interview, Taylor Swift shut down a question that would never have been asked of a man \u2014 and I\u2019m so glad she did.
