Argentine swifties have been heard. Taylor Swift was declared a guest of honor in Buenos Aires City by the local Legislature during a session held on Thursday. Cortina’s bill called for Swift to be declared a guest of honor because of her positive influence on her Argentine audience, as well as the beneficial economic contribution of her performances to the city. Her three shows, which were completely sold out with 220,000 tickets sold, “will have an impact on jobs and tourism all over Buenos Aires City,” Cortina said. The Buenos Aires City Legislature or mayor can declare someone a guest of honor as a way of recognizing them as an international guest who has made outstanding contributions to culture, science, politics or sports.
