“I think Taylor Swift, because business, commerce, art, and she would frickin’ sell like crazy,” said Tyra Banks…
When asked who should star alongside Swift, Banks said, “But, okay, I’m just gonna be real, I’m a Black girl. It was Whitney Houston as a Black girl [and] Kevin Costner as a White man. What if we flipped it, and it was Taylor Swift and Idris Elba?”
Jenna Bush Hager immediately cheered, adding, “That is good!” Banks chimed in, “Right?! That would be so hot.”

Oh hell, no! That is actually the worst idea. Whitney will be twitching in her grave. I mean, sure it’s gonna make coin with a bunch of Sw*fties… but it’ll be bad. Can’t just come up with some new ideas instead? Leave our classics alone!
Apologies to Elba for my math fail, but it’s still a mismatch for me. He can be MY bodyguard,though! (I can be his long lost pal)
Ok, but Costner was like 7 years older than Houston and Elba is 30+ years older than Swift. Gross. Michael B. Jordan, though? I’d watch that. I doubt Swift has Houston’s vocal range, but certainly the star power.
Who gives a shit what TYRA Inc. says? This bimbo needs to go away…far away….
No one is listening to Tyra Banks she is a horrible business person.
Um, Whitney could sing. I’m just putting that out there.
I wish that they wouldn’t do this but I know they are because too much money is involved. The only way that I could see this working would have new songs so that there is no comparison in voices and have Michael B. Jordan as the bodyguard this time
