A North Texas man purchased a signed Taylor Swift guitar for $4,000 at a charity auction and smashed it with a hammer in political protest against her support for Kamala Harris.
The spokesperson for the event clarified that the man's actions weren't malicious, stating it was just a lighthearted statement of disapproval toward celebrity political involvement, adding that the crowd found the incident humorous.
Despite the controversial act, the spokesperson highlighted that the main goal of the auction was to benefit local youth and agricultural education programs, ensuring that the funds raised would support these initiatives.
The incident took place against the backdrop of increased voter registration since Swift's endorsement of Harris, illustrating the significant impact celebrities can have on political participation.
