In an unprecedented and stunning move that has captivated both national and international audiences, three of America’s most influential public figures—music icon Taylor Swift, Hollywood legend Whoopi Goldberg, and soccer superstar Megan Rapinoe—have jointly announced their decision to leave the United States. The announcement, made through a shared press statement and followed by personal messages on their respective social media platforms, has sent shockwaves through the entertainment, sports, and political spheres alike.
The common thread tying their decisions together? Billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk.
On Friday morning, a press release titled “A Stand for Values, Not Wealth” was issued by representatives for Swift, Goldberg, and Rapinoe. It outlined their reasons for relocating abroad, citing what they described as the “growing cultural and political influence of Elon Musk” in shaping the United States in a direction they no longer feel aligns with their principles.
