Taylor Swift's Reps Respond To Report Claiming She's Worst Celebrity Private Jet Polluter

Taylor Swift's representatives have responded after a report claimed that her jet made 170 flights last year.

Yep, fasten your seatbelt and prepare for take-off because this ride is about to get a whole lot bumpier.

So, it all started when a report was released by the Yard, a digital marketing agency, that decided to compile data about celebrities' CO2 emissions.

While the Carolina singer was listed as the biggest offender, her reps say that's just not the case and, to be clear, these claims have not been independently verified.

Still, the Yard stood by their study, announcing it on social media by saying that they'd "conducted a study on the worst celeb private jet CO2 emission offenders & the results are shocking."

The study looked at the among of time celebs spent in the air, the number of flights they took, and the amount of CO2 their carbon footprint produced.

According to the agency for Taylor's jet that was 170 flights since January, with the agency going on to add that "Taylor's jet has amassed a vast 22,923 minutes in the air – 15.9 days. Quite a large amount considering that she is not currently touring."

Breaking those numbers down further, the agency said: "Taylor's jet has an average flight time of just 80 minutes and an average of 139.36 miles per flight. Her total flight emissions for the year come in at 8,293.54 tonnes or 1,184.8 times more than the average person's total annual emissions. Taylor’s shortest recorded flight of 2022 was just 36 minutes, flying from Missouri to Nashville."

While that sounds pretty intense, Taylor's reps hit back at the claims and said: "Taylor’s jet is loaned out regularly to other individuals. To attribute most or all of these trips to her is blatantly incorrect."

And the agency also seemed to concede to this point, putting a disclaimer at the bottom of their study, which read: "Yard is aware that this list is not conclusive to the biggest offenders, but the biggest offenders according to the data as presented on the CelebrityJets Twitter page.

"Yard is aware this data is based on these celebrities’ planes, so it is not known if these celebrities were on all the recorded flights."

So, it seems that Taylor might sing about being 'a flight risk, with a fear of falling,' but the extent to which she flies remains unclear.

LADBIBLE has reached out to Taylor's team for comment.
