Former Bon Jovi guitarist Richie Sambora recently revealed in an interview with ‘People Magazine’ that he is a ‘Swiftie’. He says that he has a wider taste in music thanks to his daughters. He expressed his admiration for Taylor Swift by saying:
“Having a daughter and being a musician, I’ve been a Swiftie for a long time. I always respect the work ethic… I mean, she’s a hard-working woman. And she blew up Ticketmaster. That’s something to boast about!”
In addition to his preference for blues and jazz, he also stated that he listens to everything as long as the song has good writing.

One of the more recent praises for Taylor Swift came from Fleetwood Mac’s Stevie Nicks. In May 2023, at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, she thanked Taylor Swift for writing the song ‘You’re On Your Own, Kid’ because it’s how she feels after losing Christine McVie. She said:
“That is the sadness of how I feel. When it was the two of us, the two of us were on our own, kids. We always were, and now, I’m having to learn to be on my own, kid, by myself. So, you help me to do that. Thank you.”
