This Is the Hilarious Secret to Why Taylor Swift Has the Most Followers on Instagram

What is Christmas in the Spotlight about?

Christmas in the Spotlight Plot

Set to be a part of the network's “It’s a Wonderful Lifetime” lineup, which officially starts November 16, Christmas in the Spotlight follows a famous pop star named Bowyn (Jessica Lord), who always sings about falling in love, but has yet to find The One. Right when she's given up on finding Prince Charming, sparks fly when she meets a handsome professional football player named Drew (Laith Wallschleger) after one of her shows. However, they don’t start dating until after Drew publicly declares his feelings for Bowyn. Sound familiar?

The movie synopsis continues, “With each passing day they spend together, their feelings grow stronger…but can it last in the limelight, especially when they both have such hectic schedules? With people questioning if their feelings for each other are real or just for show, the pressure mounts from the press, paparazzi, their fans and even their family.” I need this on my screen now!!!

Is there a trailer for Christmas in the Spotlight?

Well, no. (At least, not yet). But there is a preview teaser for Lifetime’s “It’s a Wonderful Lifetime” lineup, which features numerous clips from the upcoming Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce-esque holiday film Christmas in the Spotlight. In the first few seconds of the teaser, co-stars Jessica Lord and Laith Wallschleger can be seen gleefully walking side by side while surrounded by holiday decor. Meanwhile, another clip shows Lord’s Bowyn wearing a blue football jersey. Now, if that’s not TayVis-coded, then I don’t know what is.

When is Christmas in the Spotlight coming out?

Christmas in the Spotlight Release Date

Who’s in the cast of Christmas in the Spotlight?

Christmas in the Spotlight Cast

Aside from Lord and Wallschleger, Christmas in the Spotlight stars former The Real talk show host Jeannie Mai, who will portray Bowyn’s manager. But she won’t be the only familiar face in the ensemble cast. And if you’re constantly on TikTok, then you may recognize TikTok influencer Haley Kalil, who, according to People, is set to make her onscreen debut as Drew’s sister-in-law, Nicole.

"Last year I became a way more well-known public figure for loads of different reasons. The only reason that I was interested in is kind of like, what I was doing," Matty says. "I think that a lot of artists, they become very interested in their lore, or they become interested in the things that have happened outside of their art that people know about, and they want to address that."

While he says writing about the buzziest moments from their lives is "fair enough," Matty doesn't want to write songs about his relationships just because they're buzzy, stating that it's an "obvious" thing to draw inspiration from.

"I would kind of just be lying if I made a record about, I don’t know, all the stuff that was said about me or my casual romantic liaisons or whatever it may be that I’ve kind of become known for, just because I was famous," he says.

"I think like, the maintenance of the status quo is something that I always fight against," he continues. "So the idea of making a record about something that personally happened to me, that by the time I put it out is gonna be like two years old, I see people doing that as well, and it’s not interesting."

In addition to "loml," one song from The Tortured Poets Department that Swifties think is about Matty Healy is "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived."

"[These supposed Matty Healy-focused songs] started out being like 'f—k all of you, I love him, I’ll fix him, I don’t care what you say' to ending here basically saying 'alright yeah this guy sucks,'" one Reddit user says. "I think the order of these songs plays a huge role in this throughline of that relationship."

Despite the scathing lyrics, Matty's aunt Debbie Dedes told The Daily Mail she didn't think the songs (if they are about him) would affect him too much. “She writes about all her relationships, doesn't she? I don't think it will come as a shock to him at all,” she said. “He's very happy in his new relationship [with Gabbriette Bechtel] so I'm sure he will be focusing on that.”

And considering Taylor Swift is now dating the Kansas City Chiefs' Travis Kelce (who's all-but-confirmed to be the focus of the romantic & nostalgic "So High School"), she's finally very happy, too.
