Taylor got rejected by FTX, not the other way around
A NYT article published today about celebrities dealing with the fallout from working with crypto sponsorships had a surprising ["and hilarious"-OP] revelation buried in the final paragraphs:
Taylor Swift did NOT reject FTX/Sam Bankman-Fried's business proposal at all, but signed on after SIX MONTHS of discussions. At the last minute, SBF was the one to back out of the 100 million dollar deal.
Taylor unintentionally dodged a bullet for sure, but tales of her "due diligence" have been greatly exaggerated.
