From The Hollywood Reporter Twitter account:

“Taylor Swift will receive The Hollywood Reporter’s prestigious Sherry Lansing Leadership Award during its annual Women in Entertainment breakfast gala in Los Angeles. ⁠ ⁠ Greta Gerwig will give the award to Taylor Swift at the gala, which is presented by founding sponsor Lifetime and title sponsor Lilly.⁠

“THR’s beloved marquee event coincides with the release of The Hollywood Reporter’s Women in Entertainment issue, featuring the highly anticipated Power 100, a list of the most powerful female executives and talent in entertainment. “

Taylor really really wants the Best Song Oscar for “Toy Story 5.” Her song, “I Knew You, I Knew It” is getting BIG play on the campaign trail. Will the music branch bite? Or is all this an exercise in futility? There’s a lot of competition.

More to come!
